J had a rack of 7 riders for his 4th try at a State Q this year.

First round he was in the mix through the first turn, then he faded and came in last.

2nd round he was a man on a mission, and made a great pass in the 2nd turn to take the 3rd and last qualifying spot. You could hear his team screaming their heads off everywhere on the track! it was awesome.

He had an outside gate in the main and worked hard all the way around to earn 6th place. We'll take it.
