“A Challenging Night For Andee At Knoxville"


Bismark, ND- April 28,2014After a solid opening night last week, Andee once again returned to battle for night number two of the Knoxville Championship Cup Series!

Twenty-five of the strongest 305 cars in the Midwest signed in to spar on the famed Knoxville half mile. Andee went out in the second qualifying session, only to have her time disallowed due to being light at the scales after qualifying.

The unfortunate start to the evening buried Andee’s #1k Triple-X deep in the program, forcing her to start last in the third heat race.  With only six laps to make progress and relatively no passing, only one car advanced positions in the race. Andee took the checkered in the 8th position.

Andee was slated to start the A-Feature from the 24th position, but due to several cars failing to make the call, she started the 12-lap affair from 23rd. Andee would continue to fight issues throughout the feature, bringing out the only caution for a spin in Turn 4 about the midpoint of the race.

Andee was officially scored in the 19th position as the checkered flag flew.

Both the team and Andee are certain to rebound from a character building night and regain their week one speed. Growing pains and car issues are always a part of the sport, but Andee is optimistic of her future at Knoxville!

After two events of the Knoxville season, Andee finds herself 17th in points, but will be making a charge to the top!

Next up for Andee is Knoxville Championship Cup Night #3 on May 3rd!
