UNITY RACEWAY – 8/29

The cloudy morning turned into a wonderful afternoon for the final race of August. The crowd was there in anticipation of what the Flying Fernald was going to jump thru this year. The fans were pleased to find out it was another mobile home. This year the jumping vehicle was a mini van. The jump had to be just perfect. George again proved to be right on the mark as he cleared the whole trailer on the first jump. The fans were in for a treat as he made the jump a second and third time. The only thing that calmed him down was the van had seen it's better day. We can only wonder what next year will bring.
