BiGFooT Makes Dramatic Appearance then Disappears in the Smoke
This year's colors/graphics are depicted on the photo of the BiGFooT sprinter. In keeping with the bigfoot legend, this year's car does not have as visible of a bigfoot graphic as in years past. One of the problems with fading back into the woods, into the legend, is that there are more snakes around; BiGFooT was snakebit this weekend at Tri-State Speedway in Pocola, Oklahoma, but not before making a dramatic showing.
In his heat race, Michael recorded higher speeds (rpms) in the turns than at any track in his 2+ years of racing. He led for a few laps, traded slide jobs with another racer, and was running second to the eventual "A" Feature winner, before the motor let go in a cloud of smoke. Michael's luck earned him the "Hard Luck" award for the evening from D & E Supply.
This too brief of a showing, demonstrated the continued improvement of the BiGFooT team and of Michael in particular. New shocks from CSI contributed to the setup of the car. The Jet-Hot High Performance Coatings, Champion Brands Lubricants, and Ti22 sprinter will return to the OCRS circuit as soon as it is ready to race again.
