Victory
at Last!
Some good advice, good fortune and some good driving
gives the Epic Ventures team their first weekly
modified victory at Spencer Speedway! We showed up
that evening with an uneasy confidence that recent
chassis changes were finally going to pay off. With
advance help from Troyer Race cars guru Bob Mueller,
and modified driver Chuck Hossfeld, plus race day
thoughts from veteran Wilbur Hebing, we now had a car
ready to capitalize on Terry's outside row two
starting spot. After taking the lead the team
nervously watched as Terry fought off the hard
challenges of Buck Catalano and Andy Jankowiak. A late
race caution gave the crew an uneasy feeling having
been in this position before only to come up short.
But on this Friday, Terry had enough to take home the
victory. After the on track celebration completed, the
pit side congratulations continued from family
friends, fans and fellow competitors.

There was other good news from the evening as Tom also
had a decent night, staying out of trouble, ran some
of his fastest laps ever and took home a respectable
12th place finish. Also, long time
associate and former driver Artie Gladfelter was back
in town to catch up on some racing with a couple local
buddies and was able to join in on the pit side
celebrations.
Friday night validated that we do belong in the hunt
each week and it was only a matter of
"when", not "if". It also
validated many team building principals from our
primary sponsor Sandler
Training® and one of
their support programs: NO GUTS No
GAIN!sm Come
watch as we raise our goals ever higher.
