Busy weekend at the 2024 Classic for the B&B Sprintcar Team.
After starting the engine of the #11 on Friday morning, it was quickly realised that an engine change was required. After the spare engine was installed, it was quickly off to the track for scrutineering! In heat 4, Chris Solomon started in position 4 and finished in position 4.
In heat 7, Chris hit the wall in the front straight which required a change of the differential before the B main.
In the B Main, Chris started in 8th position and finished in 8th position. After the B Main it was quickly realised that the “K Frame” in the chassis had broken. This was repaired on Saturday morning.
On night 3 of the classic, Chris started in the C main in 5 position, Only 4 cars from the heat qualified into the B main. Chris quickly moved into 2nd position and qualified into the B Main albeit on the last row.
