[QUOTE="wizzo, post: 758116, member: 125"] [USER=1371]@ridered3[/USER] Had a great weekend racing Ultra4 Racing "Battle in the Bluegrass" at Rush, KY. I got the opportunity to co-drive for Cody Hardesty and I think we really worked good together for our first race. I appreciate the chance and look forward to more racing. We didn't get the result we wanted but there were a lot of positives that came from the race. Qualifying went well and we are 5th off the line for race day. We pre-ran the qualifying course quite a bit. We were shooting for a good starting spot. Race day, on lap 1 we lost brakes towards the end of the 9 mile lap. We pulled to the side and I jumped out to search for the problem. After minutes of me looking, brakes come back, I get secured back in and we take off. (After the race, we think there was air in the lines from a brake hose change at KOH) Once we got back in our groove we pushed a good pace laps 2-4.
