It was a National Qualifier Saturday night at Colorado National Speedway as twenty seven cars were on hand. The Asphalt Nationals will be held at Atlanta Motor Speedway October 25-27. If you plan to attend you can save fifty dollars on the entry fee by registering before October 1. You can find the entry blank application on the USLegends web page. Ryan Cansdale of Laguna Beach, California made the long trip to race with the Denver based RMLRA Legends. Ryan has been traveling a lot this summer racing his Legend. Two California tracks have closed their doors and Ryanʼs father told me the nearest track to race, is at Las Vegas. He drives in the Young Lions classification, and looked very good on the track, He did finish eighth in the feature.

Mike Gallegos was the benefit of the draw last night and had good starting spots in the Trophy Dash and the 25 lap Feature. Gallegos took the early lead and held off Kyle Clegg, Chris Eggleston, Kyle Ray and Peter Dellarco. It was a great race up front as several cars pulled along side of Gallegos but could not make the pass. Several caution flags were thrown and could have caused the racers timing towards the end of the race. This was the third feature win for Mike at CNS this season. Kyle Ray who had won five straight features must have lost the handling in his car and after trying to take the lead finished a strong fourth.

RMLRA Legends will be at I-25 Speedway, for the last race of the season in Pueblo next weekend, and it would be good to see many of you at the track. I am sure that we should see the group from Albuquerque at the track as they have attended all but one race at Pueblo. Local drivers that are not qualified for the RMLRA points could possibly be on the list by racing the one date required by the legibility rules. Awards will be given at the banquet to RMLRA drivers who have qualified by attending required races and 2012 membership. A date has not been set for this event yet.
