Third
place finish at Tazewell
Mike
Weeks returned to Tazewell Speedway
for a weekly race at the high-banked,
1/3-mile track.
Mike
quailified in the third starting spot
just behind Rick Rogers and Vic Hill.
Rogers got the early lead with Hill
and Mike following closely behind.
Hill overtook Rogers for the lead
on lap 12. Mike settled in behind
Rogers still in third and was able
to keep pace with the front two. With
10 laps to go, Mike hit a rut in turn
1 that effected the handling of his
#22 Trak-Star GTO. He held of for
third when the race was over.
Mike's
plans for this week include another
weekly race at Tazewell Speedway on
July 2nd and Wartburg Speedway's Mack
Truck 50 on July 3rd.
Rough
weekend for Weeks
After
a number of recent
rain outs, it
was time to get
back to racing
with a weekend
of nice weather.
Stop
#1 for Mike Weeks
was the Tennessee
Thunder DirtCar
Series race at
Boyd's Speedway
in Ringgold, GA.
Mike finished
3rd in his B-main
to make it to
the 24-car starting
gird. But rough
racetrack conditions
made racing difficult.
Only 8 cars finished
the 50-lap race.
Mike finished
21st.
Stop
#2 was at Tazewell
Speedway and the
O'Reilly Battle
of the Bluegrass
DirtCar Series.
Another rough
racetrack greeted
the drivers. For
Mike, the rough
conditions got
him during qualifying
as his left rear
tire went flat
on his first qualifying
lap. The tire
was peeled off
the rim. Mike
opted not to start
his heat from
the rear and loaded
up for the night.
Mike
is tentatively
scheduled to be
at Mountain Raceway
for a $2,000 to
win race.
Third
place finish gets "Milkman"
headed in right direction
Mike
Weeks returned to his familiar
#22 Trak-Star car at Tazewell
Speedway. The return paid
off to the tune of a 3rd place
finish.
Mike
gave chase to pole sitter
Billy Ogle Jr. and Rick Rogers
throughout the race. Things
got interesting with lapped
traffic, but Mike could not
take advantage by gaining
any spots. Still, a 3rd place
finish gives Mike and the
team a boost of confidence
heading into the month of
May.
Mike
is tentatively scheduled to
go to Tazewell Speedway again
this coming weekend.
