Getting Derby....

                                                                                              Team Bacon
Kellen did his 3rd derby this last June in Lind, WA during the 2010 Demolition Derby Extravaganza. We had a good time working on the car and building it (Yes by we I primarily mean Kellen LOL). This year Kellen ran a 1968 Cadillac Sedan Deville 472 Big block. It held up pretty well even though when we first got to the track the oil pump broke after Kellen ran the time trials. Kellen was very disappointed after that happened and we debated about keeping the car and fixing it up so he could run the Spokane Derby but we decided since we didn’t have any money invested into the car itself might as well destroy it! Even with a broken oil pump Kellen placed 3rd at the Derby (Woo Hoo) Definitely an improvement from 5th with the 1988 Pontiac Safari Station Wagon (Vegas Vacation Style) or 8th with the 1976 Ford LTD Crown Vic. It was hot but we had a blast we dubbed ourselves Bacon Racing and had lots of Friends & Family there for support!! I will post more pictures of the finished product and the derby!
