The #06 turned in another solid finish today in the Carolina 500 at Rockingham Speedway with a 24th place finish (race results). The result was good considering Tim began in 39th position. Better yet, Tim finished the race (for the fourth time out of five races in '08) rather than struggling with mechanical problems like he has in past years.
Tim was pleased overall with today's outcome. "We had a pretty good day today," he said. "The car handled decent and we avoided trouble." In particular, Tim stayed out of a major wreck that left him with only minor damage after scraping the inside wall to avoid the mishap. Tim's first race at The Rock was a good one; "if we come back here to race again I will have good memories from today's race."
Now, it's on to Kentucky Speedway outside of Cincinnati next Saturday for the Drive Smart! Buckle Up Kentucky 150. "Kentucky is one of the nicest facilities where we race, but I have had mediocre runs there," according to Tim. Hopefully, his recent streak of solid performances will continue at Kentucky.
