Story by Chris Roy
You can find the McAlpine family every race weekend at Unity Raceway, as dad Carl races in the “Keystone Automotive Industries Wildcat Division” and his 2 daughter Emily and April race in the Teen Division. All 3 drivers are top 10 in points, Carl is currently in 2nd place only 12 points behind the leader Maurice Young.
I asked the girls what the key was to getting around Unity Raceway? Their response turn left!
Who has the car to beat in tonight’s race? They both responded Jayson Bosworth, who is the current points leader in the Teen Division. This is 13 yr old Emily’s 2nd year in the Teen Series, and this is Aprils rookie season. Both drivers are looking for their 1st win of the season.
Carl looking to win the 2011 Wildcats Championship has his hands full working on all 3 race cars with some help from his friends. Was leading the points until a cut tire set him back to 3rd in the points standing a few weeks ago, “the racing is pretty competitive this season, it may take awhile to get back.”
Carl passed the Chris young for the lead and held off the charge of Maurice Young and, drove the number 18 car back to victory lane last weekend and moved up to 2nd in the points, as Emily and April finished 4th and 5th a pretty good night of racing for the McAlpine Family.
