Starting in the second row outside in the heat, Skyler moved quickly to the high side where he found a good line.  By lap three, with a nice "dive" move down low, he picked off two cars to take the lead.  He held off everybody to win by half a lap.

The feature was another kind of race--totally. Drivers were aggressive, including Skyler.  Starting second row inside, Skyler was boxed in.  His goal, in his words, was to "get out front and stay there, so he didn't get wrecked."  He powered up underneath the green flag, but the car beside him got loose.  Several cars swerved and spun to avoid a pile-up, and for reasons unknown to Team Weaver, Skyler was sent to the rear on the restart.  

However, a good racer doesn't let a bad call ruin his night.  He fought back, picking off cars one by one.  Two more yellow flags sent at least three cars to the pits for good, which allowed Sklyer to close up tight on the single-file restarts.  He moved up from 5th to 4th, and eventually to 3rd.  However the lead cars had too much on an advantage, and Skyler finished in the 3rd slot--enough to put him atop the points chase in the Mod-Four class at Bemidji Speedway.  

We'll take it.  No damage except some bent tin, and one rim that got nicked.  Overall, a great night of racing.
