2012 Starts With A Bang...Literally
April 21, 2012
After a long hard winter of working away to prepare the car for another year of competition, the Double D Racing team headed to Flamboro Speedway this Saturday for the first event of the season. Sporting a new look, the #2 West Brant Window World/Scott's Auto Body Repair Camaro was looking sharp, and driver Rick Burbridge was looking for a fresh start for a new campaign.
Apparently that fresh start will now come later in the season, and feature a new engine. Just five laps into the first practice session of the season, the power plant in the #2 Camaro expired in a cloud of smoke heading down the front straightaway.
The team will now take some time to tear the motor apart and find the root cause of the failure. After that, the team will explore its options towards getting a new engine installed for the remainder of the season.
At this point, it is unclear when the team will make it back to competition, but as soon as a return date is determined, it will be posted right here on the site. Check back regularly for any future updates on the team's status!
