Turkey Shoot Nationals at Pacific Raceways

It was fun times at the 1st Annual Turkey Shoot Nat’s at Pacific Raceways, even with the torrential downpour and cold weather.  We had about 50 + or so of our fellow racers & friends show up at this event which was hosted by Ed Garfield & John Ramsey of PR with special guest announcer Stevie Wong. 

There was a life sized practice tree along with all of the electronics provided by Bracketstars and low & behold Edwards & Young Racing represented themselves well!  I won the championship taking out Dave Wakefield (Dad) in the finals with a .002 rt to his red light of -.001 ouch!!! 

I had some really tough opponents along the way including Dustin Martin on the semis.

They proceeded to do another practice tree competition as we all were not ready to go home and once again Edwards & Young Racing came out victorious as Justin Jung whom was an integral help this year for us  took out Mark Cavar in the finals as they both went red but Justin was last to do so.  Mark put a stop to my win streak in the semis with a .008 rt to my .017 rt, was hoping to meet Justin in the finals.  Congrats Justin!  Oh, it doesn’t end there as Justin also won a raffle drawing for 2 3-day tickets to the 2013 NW Nat’s!!! 

We had a lot of fun and can’t wait for the 2013 season, hope everyone have safe & happy holidays. 

Sincerely, Paul Young
