July 24, 2009 – Union County Speedway – Liberty, IN Eric started the heat race outside row one and established a commanding lead.  After trading the lead with two other cars twice, he did take the win. We started the 20-lap feature race of 10 cars (five of which were "Super Late Models") outside the front row.  At the green flag, Eric established a strong lead, but was challenged several times as a result of multiple caution flags.  With nearly a straightaway lead by the 18th lap, another incident brought out yet another caution flag.  As the field bunched, another competitor decided the only way to win was to pull a bonsai move on Eric in an effort to take him out of the competition.  After nearly accomplishing his mission, Eric was shoved back to the third position at the finish.  (We have learned that some "drivers" would be better suited at a demo derby.)  We had a great run!  Revenge will be sweet!
