well the 2008 season has ended, 7th place finish Saturday nite @ THR, started 7th in the 7 car. i think my descision to make the number change makes sense! we were pretty good, i got hung out, then held up but that's ok, the car is in tact and we can start it and move it around, on top of that we wound up in tech and passed! it has been a very exciting year getting back into this, it stayed fun and relaxed , just as we intended it to be. my uncle Martin Tello who owns that 7 car sure bought a nice horse when he got that thing, i love that car and the car seems to like me too, my daughter Kendall always asks if my race cars take care of me, thank God the Sizzlin 7 did in '08. my dad Ben Rodriguez put together and maintains a car better than anybody, him back involved is BY FAR the reason this team is back running fast and contending, i was lost in obscurity when he was gone. my wife Tracy is my angel, she rode this initial season and was a real trooper through it all, I love you sweetie. to any and all that stopped to say hi, welcome me back and admire the 7, i appreciate you all, it sure is nice to hear the applause again!
we had planned to try to win a heat race hopefully, we won 2, good top 10 runs and most importantly, just being fast and competitive... we hit our goals for 2008.
We'll evaluate and see what 2009 looks like, we're close now, hopefully we can finish the job!
