OCT 11TH AND 12TH IMRA
CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND. THE CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND KICKED OFF AT THE
QUAD CITY RACEWAY IN EAST MOLINE IL ON SATURDAY NIGHT. THE THR TEAM WAS VERY
EXCITED AND READY FOR THE WEEKEND TO BEGIN. IT DID NOT TAKE LONG TO SEE THAT
THE CHANGES MADE IN THE 22 AND 20 CAR WERE THE RIGHT THINGS TO DO AS TRACY
WOULD FINISH 3RD IN THE HEAT AND JEREMY WOULD FINISH 5TH WITH ALL OTHER
ROOKIES BEHIND HIM. THE FEATURE WOULD SHOW GREAT PROGRESS WITH TRACY FINISHING
4TH AND CLINCHING THE 2008 SEASON POINTS TITLE. JEREMY WOULD HAVE ANOTHER
GREAT FINISH IN 7TH THAT WOULD PUT HIM IN FRONT OF THE OTHER ROOKIES AND COME
OUT OF THE SATURDAY NIGHTS RACES LEADING THE ROOKIE OF THE YEAR BATTLE. THR
WAS GLAD TO HAVE BELL RACING FRIEND STEVE THOMAS IN THE 20 CAR FOR THE
WEEKEND. THE CAR DEVELOPED A VIBRATION WHICH KEPT STEVE FROM TURNING ANY
SERIOUS LAPS. WE GUARANTEE THE NEXT TIME YOU COME BACK STEVE, WE WILL HAVE A
CAR THAT YOU CAN WIN WITH!
THE NEXT NIGHT OF RACING WOULD MAKE OUR SECOND STOP AT THE MACOMB RACEWAY. WE
HAD A FULL FIELD OF CARS WITH 19 SIGNED IN. THE EVENING WOULD END QUICKLY FOR
TRACY WITH A TIMING CHAIN BREAKING IN HOT LAPS. HE WOULD THEN CONCENTRATE ON
THE 22 CAR FOR THE EVENINGS EVENTS. THIS WOULD PROVE TO BE JEREMY'S NIGHT TO
SHINE AS HE WOULD FINISH 2ND IN THE HEAT. THE FEATURE WOULD FIND JEREMY ON THE
POLE AND PROVED QUICKLY THAT HE DESERVED TO BE UP THERE. JEREMY WOULD BATTLE
WITH BRUNSON BEHNING, BRYAN BEHNING, AND DAN BEERENDS FOR THE TOP SPOT. HE
WOULD FALL TO A MID RACE SPIN BUT WOULD RECOVER TO FINISH IN THE 5TH SPOT AND
CLINCH THE IMRA "ROOKIE OF THE YEAR" TITLE. JEREMY HAS MADE AN AMAZING RUN
THESE PAST FEW RACES AS HE HAS BECOME MORE COMFORTABLE IN THE CAR. IT WAS
GREAT FOR BOTH TRACY AND JEREMY TO BE ABLE TO CELEBRATE THE END OF THE 2008
SEASON WITH BOTH IMRA TITLES. THR WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL OF THEIR SPONSORS
FOR THEIR SUPPORT THIS SEASON-BELL RACING, HINCHMAN INDY, LAKIS FORD/DODGE,
LAKIS COLLISION CENTER, TRICK PAINT DESIGNS, T-N-T ENTERPRISES, AND SNUFFY'S
RACE CAR FABRICATING. THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT!!!!!
IT WAS ANOTHER GREAT WEEKEND
FOR THR AT THE DAVENPORT FAIRGROUNDS IN DAVENPORT IA SATURDAY NIGHT. TRACY WOULD
COME HOME IN SECOND PLACE PROPELLING HIM INTO THE IMRA POINTS LEAD. THE TOP 3
SPOTS ARE HIGHLY CONTESTED WITH RYAN MILLER AND STEVE FOSTER JUST 42 AND 44
POINTS RESPECTIVELY BEHIND. JEREMY WOULD BRING HOME THE 22 CAR TO ANOTHER
CONSISTENT FINISH BRINGING HIM NOW TO JUST 15 POINTS BEHIND IN THE ROOKIE OF THE
YEAR CHASE. JEREMY HAS ONLY RACED 7 OUT OF THE 10 IMRA POINTS RACES THIS SEASON,
SHOWING THAT THE 3 RACES HE HAS MISSED WOULD HAVE PUT HIM WELL AHEAD IN THE
RUNNING AT THIS POINT. TWO MORE FINISHES AHEAD OF THE OTHER ROOKIES WILL
GUARANTEE THE IMRA AWARD!!! IT WILL BE A HARD FOUGHT BATTLE THIS WEEKEND WITH A
DOUBLE HEADER SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. ALSO, STEVE THOMAS OF BELL RACING WILL BE THE
THR GUEST DRIVER FOR THE WEEKENDS EVENTS IN THE #20 CAR. STEVE BRINGS IN
EXPERIENCE IN MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF OPEN WHEEL RACING FROM 600 MICRO'S TO HIS
FAMILY'S NON WING SPRINT CAR. IT WILL BE AN EXCITING WEEKEND FOR THR. STAY TUNED
FOR THIS WEEKENDS BIG RACING EVENTS.
TRACY HULL RACING BRINGS HOME A STELLAR PERFORMANCE AT
THE QUAD CITY RACEWAY SATURDAY NIGHT . ALL THREE CARS CAME HOME IN THE TOP 5 AT
THE 1/4 MILE HIGH BANK. TRACY WOULD TAKE A HEAT RACE WIN, WHILE AARON AND JEREMY
WOULD BE CAUGHT UP IN A TURN 3 ACCIDENT WHICH SAW AARON DO A SMALL ROLLOVER.
BOTH CARS RETIRED FROM THE HEAT RACE. THE FEATURE SAW SOME EXCITING RACING WITH
TRACY FINISHING SECOND WHILE AARON AND JEREMY MADE THERE WAY FROM THE BACK ROW
TO FINISH 3RD AND 5TH RESPECTFULLY. JEREMY HAS CLOSED THE GAP IN THE ROOKIE OF
THE YEAR CHASE WITH ONLY 75 POINTS SEPARATING HIM FROM THE CURRENT LEADER. WITH
HIS CONSISTENT FINISHES, IT LOOKS LIKE THE AWARD WILL COME DOWN TO THE FINAL
EVENT. TRACY WOULD MOVE FROM SECOND TO THE POINTS LEAD AFTER SATURDAY NIGHTS
RESULTS. ALL CARS ARE NOW IN THE TOP 10 IN POINTS. PLEASE CHECK OUR SERIES WEB
