NAVY DAVY'S SHOT OF THE WEEK!!!

".......another great weather weekend for racing. Friday night it was season championship night at Kopellah. The two best races were in the Streetstocks and the Modifieds. Chanda Fjordin Nord won the Streeters by less than a car length over Jeff Hientz and Jason Schill got his first feature win after battling Mike Mueller all race long.
Our original plan for Saturday and Sunday was to head to Hibbing for the "Labor Day Shootout" which is their final weekend of the season. We decided to stay around here though and went to Rice Lake for their final show of the year. It was a good night although a long night. I photographed this show also and was very tired by the end. There were 172 cars in the pits. The high light race of the night was the Streetstock "Little Dream Race". It's pretty neat how they get the payout. They take donations and it adds up pretty fast. Scott Clark the winner took home over 1000.00 dollars. People also donate to different positions such as we did. We put 25.00 bucks up for the 17th place finisher. Everyone comes out with something. I even heard someone put a 12 pack of beer out there for somebody.
Tonite is our final night at Kopellah.
This weeks shot comes from the Late Model feature Satuday night as they go three wide down the front stretch. See you at the races................."
