Ricky backed up last weeks win at Irwinday Speedway with another win this weekend. he qualified on pole again for the 3rd time in 3 races so far this year with a 19.96 second run.

He started inside second room (due to an inverted start for the top 6 qualifiers) he race door to door with 2 other trucks until lap 21 when he made an aggresive pass to take the lead, then he pulled away for a 3 second lead over the field to take the win.

His victory burnouts are getting expensive though, he blew a transmission last week celebrating his win and another one this weekend doing the same thing, I guess it a small price to pay to see that big smile on his face in victory circle.

Some people are just natural athletes and no matter what happens to them they will always find a way to win.

It's great to see Ricky doing so well.

He's really embraced life despite obstacles and has been quite an inspiration for me and my injury.

good dad...but he'll still have a smile on his face if he saves you money and wins the race. tell him to knock it off.
