The results don't show how well Bailey actually did. She was running with the best of them, things just didn't work out so well. Running out of gas in the Mod really sucked the most, running in third just waiting for a shot, 250 laps into the main and out of gas, yikes. Jr. Stock wasn't mutch better, running in second taking a peek for the lead the 1st place car break-checked her in the corner and needless to say she booted him around. When Bailey came in she wanted to know why the leader stomped on his break in the corner? Well, then there was the B, I don't even know what happened there...

Bailey qualified #1 in Jr. Stock, #4 in Lt. 160. Well, this makes six Jr. Stock event victories in a row... Gavin Greabeal took off on the green, snookering Bailey on the start, however, Bailey sat back and rode right on his tail, waiting for about five laps to go and she made her move. Bailey got around him on about lap 15 and by the finish on lap 20 had close to a straight-away lead. Great job Bailey, smart racing. Changing cars, getting into the Lt. 160 Bailey felt good, staying in third for most of the race, on about lap 22 Bailey's throttle return spring broke, sending Bailey into turn 3 full throttle and ended with a easy spin in the marbles coming out of turn 4. Bailey came in the hot-chute saying somethin' broke dad. Bailey was pushed back out with a green/white/checkered to fly, using her toes to pull the gas pedal back controlling the throttle.

Congratulations Bailey, three Jr. Stock regional wins in a row... Bailey had a decent weekend, qualifying 1st in the Lt. B, finishing 2nd in the A Main. Qualifying 2nd in the Jr. Stock, with a big win in the Stocker. Qualifying 8th in the Lt. 160, taken out on lap one, the front five cars had to start at the back, making her way up to 6th in the B, equating to being the X car for the A but no one broke so we didn't make it out. Great Job Bailey.

#1 Qualifyer in Jr. Stocker, #5 in Lt. B, and #31 out of #33 in the Lt. 160 (fuel issue) - Since qualifying in the Lt. 160 didn't go well, first up was the F Main, taking a second place finish, transferring to the E. Coming from 7th to 2nd within 10 laps and riding the rest of the way behind Jose Parga, transferring to the D. As the D main was getting ready in the hot chute, the rain let loose... The mains were dealyed until Sunday morning at 7:00 a.m. (EST), so much for sleeping in. Bailey was up and ready at 6:30, on the track by 7:30, not too bad. Running in a transfer spot, got booted from the rear, spun, and went to the back, never recovering, finishing 8th. Jr. Stock A Main - Started #1, leading all 30 laps, for another stocker win. Lt. B A Main - Started #5, coming out of turn 2, took the lead. Wow, Bailey caught all of them sleeping. Too bad we had to do a single file restart, starting 4th this time, quickly moving through the field, working on Tanner Reed for the next 30 laps or so, taking a strong 2nd place finish. Close but not close enough, the RPMs were way too high, we'll get 'em next time.

Wow, I guess THQMA dislikes out of towners. Chop call on inside car on a straight away??? On a day Macon & Mary Morgan, Grandpa Myers, and Andy Kamp were inducted into the THQMA Hall of Fame, beautiful weather held up along with great qualifying. Bailey ended up number one in the stocker and number three in the Lt. 160. Jr. Stock is first up, 50 laps, all green, Bailey took the lead on the drop of the green and lapped the field. Great job B! Change of cars and in the 100 lapper of the Lt. 160, we see the true colors of the judges, Bailey was running in third lapping the two Terre Haute cars, one by easily, the second not so. On the front stretch a home track racer turns left into the front of Bailey and collects her. Chop call, not on the racer turing down into her, but on Bailey, the inside car. Chop call, to the back. Everyone in the hot chute, including the parents of the other child, scratching their head. Oh well, play that way. With less than 10 laps left, Bailey came back to a sixth place finish.
