Perris Auto Speedway Salute To Indy
Salute To Indy at " The Pas" didn't quite turn out the way the Moose Team and Austin were hoping for. 26 cars careened around the track, in an effort to set " quick time". It was Brody Roa who claimed the Woodland Auto Display Fast Time Award. Damion 2nd & Austin 3rd Quick.

ALL COAST CONSTRUCTION 3rd Heat: over 2. Malcolm, 3. C.Williams, 4. T.Williams, 5. Hix, 6. Rayborne, 7. Sexton. NT
Main Event was a shaky one at best - with an early incident involving the top 3 running cars, and 4 more - with several of them making repairs and back on the track. Austin, who was running 4th made a fast evasive move, clearing the tangled web of cars and now taking the restart green flag in the lead. That however did't last long as he and 2nd place, Brody ( who was involved in the massive pile up and came back up thru the field ) tangled coming out of turn 4, sending Austin into the wall and getting slammed by a few cards that had no where to go. Ending a good run and what the team would find on Sunday, a chassis & just " a few" of those bolt on parts!
