Racers Always Say "There Is Always Next Week".... Dan Green #46 Is Saying Just That! (Cathy Green photo)

Coatesville, PAApril 16, 2016 – Snow halted the racing program last week so the G & H Motorsports team was ready for a good night of racing. Well all hopes were dashed on lap 5 of the 8 lap heat race. The #46 NASCAR BRC Dirt Late Model driven by Dan Green will need some extra work but will be back strong next Saturday Night.
Heat Race
Dan started the 8 lap heat race in 3rd after rookie #00 Eric Hoch chose to start in the rear. As the green flag waved Dan moved the Scott Select Pre-Owned Cars #46 into second passing Drew Weiser #19 on lap 1. Dan followed #33s Bryan Sipe until lap 5 when Sipe was trying to lap the #2D George Irwin, contact was made between Sipe and Irwin and the #2D spun. Dan drove to the outside of the two cars and just as he saw an open spot to go, Irwin came up the track and hit the left front of the #46 damaging the LF suspension.
Crew Goes To Work
Scott Green, Cathy Green, Jim Alexander, Phil Jelke, Alan Cullen, Debbie Dutter, Jennifer O’Shea, Brett Higginbotham and Dan all converged on the damaged car to get it repaired for the feature event. Some members repaired the left front suspension others worked on the feature set-up, fueling the car and checking the line-up to see where Dan would start.
Feature Event
Dan started the 25 lap feature event 18th in the 19 car field. The green flagged waved and Shawn Horning #8M spun collecting Lou Egrie Jr. #4e and Dan. Another try at a restart ended with a red flag for a multi-car accident, as Dan was stopping for the cars in front of him, Horning didn’t stop as quick and bumped into the left rear with minimal damage. After the clean up and the track was ready the green came back out and Dan completed 1 lap before he had to pull off from damage from the Horning spin. Dan finished the event 15th and now sits 13th in points after two weeks of the season. The team surveyed the damages on Sunday, have a list of things to accomplish this week, and will be back next Saturday ready to challenge the Grandview Late Model division!
