GOFERS March meet

Video by Jeff Smith from the March Meet. Thanks Jeff !

Graham Cannonball Cannon, wins again although the inspections committee is discussing possible disqualification due to illegal axle configuration. Second place to Barry, “I can’t drift this POS” Klassen. Third to Greg “Eat My Panties” Peckham. Fourth to “Slow Poke” Peter Trim. And sadly last place to Craig “WTF is going on with my Steering” Trim.  Craig hit the ditch about 60 feet from the start  when his new elegant rail made an unexpected right hander into the rhubarb.

In other highlights, Peter trim showed up with a new sled, still having trouble with lubrication of the driveline…..but when you are over 60, I have heard that this is a common problem.

Barry Klassen flipped his ride at the end of the first race becoming the first “GOFER” to shed some blood. This incident was the result of a failed attempt to drift his POS at the end of the course, but she hooked causing him to do a triple axel, as  seen at the Olympic free skate. Graham Cannon, and Greg Peckham were within close proximity and give it a 7 out of 10 for the dismount.

Not sure what happened with the Siewert racing stable, both Dirty Don Siewert and Rob “left turn” Siewert were nowhere to be found during this race weekend. More than likely scared to compete and have probably moved back to the powder puff derby.

Stay tuned for announcement of the April meet.
