to learn more about the business side of racing. It was great and
there was a lot of great speakers that helped us to understand the
financial, insurance, and sponsorship parts of racing. THANK YOU GUYS SO
MUCH!!!

July 7th 2007 - Rained out
July 1st - North Star called the race at 1:00 pm
due to the rain front coming in and dumping water on us.
June 30th - The Holmes family came down from
Fairbanks and uped the count of Bandos to 9. Annita was leading in the
1st heat until Tyler & Travis Holmes got around her. In the 2nd & 3rd
heats the car started doing spins (and it wasn't the drivers fault
this time) As we looked at the car on Sunday we found that the chain
was binding up and the brake was dragging. She's currently holding 1st
place for North Star Speedway Bandolero points and 47th out of 115 for
INEX (600 Racing) Nation-wide Points.
June 23rd - The racing was good and clean this weekend.
Thought we might be rained out but it cleared up nicely.Annita was hot
and fast all weekend long. Lots of good clean exciting passing. in the
2nd heat, Annita come from the back of the pack and took 1st. In the main
race Annita was able to get up and move, she was a least 1 corner
ahead of everyone else at one time.
June 16th - Annita started the evening with a win
which gave her a great high. Took another 1st in the 2nd heat. Was in
2nd catching up with the leader when the clutch went out, good thing
she did come in, the spindle was bent and rubbing on the tire - she
could've easily blown a tire.
June 9th - Annita started with a win! Lots of door
banging in the main, good racing, everyone finished the race.
June 2nd - Trying to get the car lined out and stay
away from the wall. In the main heat she had a driver break a tie rod
and come into her and took her out of the race too.
May 27th - Ran main race from previous day. Annita
got up and walked away! She took first! Then in the second main race
of the day, she thought she'd see what the wall in turn 2 looked like.
She spun and hit the wll. Bent the backend, but thanks to DAD
busting butt & her sponsor Fat Fab she was able to go racing
next weekend.
May 26th - 1st win in the 1st heat, then got stuck
in the back of the pack and couldn't get around. Main race was rained
out.
May 20 - Still learning, no major damage or repairs
(good racing)
May 19th - Relearning to race with other drivers,
finding her "line" on the track and avoiding spins.
