Catching up...Bad Luck for #45
Its been awhile but here are the results from our recent string of bad luck for Dave and the DeLange Racing team.
5/13 Lancaster : RAIN
5/20 Lancaster : RAIN
5/27 Oswego : Dave and the DeLANGE racing team had a good run going in the 100 lap ROC North series opener. Dave was working his way through the field after a great pit stop until two cars running right in front of Dave got together and spun leaving Dave no where to go. Dave got tangled with the cars in front damaging the #45 modified beyond the point of return.
6/3 Lancaster : RAIN
6/10 Lancaster : MODS OFF
6/11 WCIS (TQ) : Another Casey's TQ race at WCIS, another win for Dave in the Englewood collision #1 TQ Midget. Dave won in a great battle with the #93 of Jared Turnbull to take home his first checkered flag of 2006.
6/17 Lancaster : In the TQ Midget feature Dave was working on the outside of the #9, when the inside car drove up into the side of Dave putting him back in the field and resulting in a 7th place finish for the #1 TQ. Congrats to Erick Rudolph on taking home the win. In the Modified Feature Dave was forced to start in the back after LRP put him a lap down in the heat race. Dave was quickly working his way to the front when a wreck happened in front of him. Dave was able to get the #45 safely slowed down just in time for the #44 to plow into the back of Dave damaging the rear of the car and pushing him into the pile damaging the RF as well. The crew got Dave back out but he was laps down from repairing the damage on the RF.
6/18 WCIS: Dave was having a great run in the 75-lap ROC North race at "Perry" looking to break out of recent string of bad luck when it happened again. Dave was running in 5th place saving his tires for a end of the race to battle for the win, when a piece of the track hit the oil cooler causing an oil leak from the #45 and forcing Dave to pull off the track. WCIS had the track surface in turn 4 and turn 1 coming apart, throwing chunks of asphalt and damaging many good cars by taking out oil coolers, radiators, and cutting tires. WCIS appears to have addressed the issue and racing should be much improved next time the Mods roll into Wyoming County.
6/24 Lancaster: Dave used the outside groove and a fast car to take second place behind our DeLange racing teammate of Bobby Holmes in the heat race. Dave would start the feature in seventh position quickly moving up to fourth early in the race, then the bad luck struck again. Running side by side behind Dave was the #8 and the #12 of Tom McGrath, the two cars we banging down the back stretch when the #12 of McGrath forgot to slow down for the corner clipping the back of Dave and causing both cars to spin and go to the back of the field. Dave was able to work his way back to 5th before the checkers flew.
7/1 Lancaster ROC: We look to break out with a win at the Firecracker 75-Lap ROC North Race this Saturday.
