This past weekend the "top was popped" on the Inaugural Season of the SUDS Series. Race one was at Orlando Speedworld on Friday and was won by Mike Smith. Race two was at New Smyrna on Saturday and was won by Earl (Junior) Beckner. Both races were "clean" examples as to what racing should be and are generally typical for Sportsman. Only myself and Beckner made both events. Points (before bonus pts. are as follows).
1. Earl Beckner 45
2. Scott Garrity 41
3. Mike Smith 25
4. Derrick Wood 24
Brandon Morris
6. Donny Williams 23
Daniel Conlin, Jr.
8. Sandy Lee 22
9. Andy Nichols 21
D.J. Farr
Bonus Points were awarded as follows:
25 Points to Patrick Thomas for lending me a carb, finding me a throwout bearing, spotting for me and bringing me a tire plug kit.
5 points to Earl Beckner for running me clean side-by-side for what seemed like 20 laps in Friday's race. Good racing with you Earl, we never even touched!
5 points to Derrick Wood for a friendly greeting and some great racing.
5 points to Donny Williams for chatting over a beer after the race (and great racing too).
5 points to Diamond Jim Higginbotham for some friendly conversation (but a 5 point deduction for forgetting he seen me!)
15 points to Rex Boneman Hollinger for embracing the true spirit of SUDS.
5 points for me and my team for getting up early after a late night Friday and pulling the tranny to replace the throwout bearing (and driving to Apopka from Daytona to get it).
Adjusted Points:
1. Beckner 50
2. Garrity 46
3. Wood 29
4. Williams 28
5. Patrick Thomas 25
Smith
7. Morris 24
8. Conlin 23
9. Lee 22
10. Nichols 21

Next race "on tap" for the SUDS Series will be at New Smyrna on June 14th (the day after my birthday). The SUDS will be flowing for sure. After that the SUDS will flow to Bronson for a 50 Lapper on Thursday nite, July 3rd. And remember it's never too late to join SUDS, the Series that always leaves you thirsty for more...
