It was a busy
weekend for the Shaylen Raye Motorsports #18 Shark Racing Engines powered
Sprint Cars driven by Travis Jacobson. The team started out racing both the 410
and 360 Sprinters at Skagit Speedway Saturday night for the John Carroll
Classic and then headed to Grays Harbor Speedway in Elma for the second night
of the ASCS Northwest Region Series Sunday race.
On Saturday
night the big win was in the 360 Sprint as Travis led every lap of the 360 main
even to win the John Carroll Cup and the extra money paycheck. In winners
circle Travis spoke about what it meant to win the Carroll Classic, “Little
shaky, I owe my whole career to that guy I will never forget him..I am
speechless right now. This team gives me such an awesome ride every week.
Thanks to Mike Anderson and thanks to this team for giving me a chance to win
every time we fire this thing up.”
The 410 was
also on rails Saturday night but the evening ended late in the 410 main with
some mechanical issues with Travis running down the leader.
Off to Elma
for the Sunday race where the team got a bad pill draw and had to work their
way into the A main after completely dominating the B main event. The #18
Shaylen Raye Motorsports ASCS 360 started 17th and had worked their
way up to 7th late in the race. Clearly the team could have been a
top 5 car with lap times consistently faster than the cars in front of him.
Late in the race Travis was challenging for a top 5 spot when he made contact
with a spinning lapped car flipping and ending the evening.
The Shaylen
Raye Motorsports team would like to thank everyone from both of the tracks, the
fans and friends that came down after the races and said such nice things about
the show Travis put on. We love this sport and the support we have from our
fans is greatly appreciated.
