Other than it being Nascar week with traffic on all the roads in Concord like a hurricane evacuation, scattered thunderstorms came through and decided to shed heavy amounts of rain, causing Andrews to take a short breather. So after a few weeks of being closed, the track was watered, prepped and ready to go at 12 noon. Mike even decided to change up the layout of the track for a change and as always, great job to the guys that help Mike get everything ready. To my knowledge, there are only a couple of track owners that puts a ton of effort and hard work into prepping the track for riders, and one of them is Mike Andrews. I've actually helped prep the track on several occasions so I know exactly what kind of work is involved.Even though it was hot and humid out today, there was still some left over thunderstorm areas on the track. Meaning... a few places were a bit muddy. With that being said, riders that came out today, were a little more reserved on twisting the throttle like usual. As the saying goes "you have to go slower in order to go faster". And on a day like today, you definitely needed to keep that in mind.
Even though the track had a few slick muddy spots, the track eventually formed into a gorgeous layout of ruts and moist dirt.
Blake Hovis ( #215 ) showed up and put in some blazing laps!
