JD Boucher Motorsports

A couple of more gremlins got us yesterday.

When JD lined up for the afternoon hook, he saw a major fuel leak when he was taking off. He stopped and we dropped to last. Unfortunately, it was a cracked fitting on a fuel hose we didn’t have time to fix to come back.

We took the truck back to the trailer and got the fitting changed. When we started it for a double check of the fuel lines, we found a gouge in the blower belt so we took time to change that too.

Thanks to Brad and Justin for making those fixes happen!

Thanks to Cody Petro and Kaitlyn Desautels for helping work on the trucks, get us through the chaos of the pits and keeping us hydrated all day!

For the night hook he had a great take off and run down the track. However he dropped the #2 cylinder at about 50 feet and was only ln 7 cylinders for the run. Check out the video below. Thanks Jaime Quinn Santorelli!

He still grabbed second place by just under 2 feet. If the truck had been running on all 8 cylinders he’d have had first place for sure!

We had a great time seeing everyone. If you stopped by and we didn’t have time to chat we are sorry! A two hook day takes a lot of work even when we have no issues! We appreciate all of you who can to cheer us on!

We will dig in and see if we can figure out the #2 cylinder issue this week and let you know where we’ll be next!

If you grabbed any photos or videos we’d love if you’d share them in the comments! We don’t have a lot of time to get stuff and appreciate when you do!

Ever wonder what it’s like to be in the rig as we enter these small town fair grounds?

Ride along with us for the big hill, sharp turns, and close narrow entrance to Balston Spa fairgrounds.

JD even stayed quiet and didn’t swear this time. 🤪🤪

Well we missed that set up. But we did get some data.

Think we have a fuel leak and the tires didn’t hook as expected.

#2 cylinder didn’t seem right at the end of the run. We will get it apart and see what’s up this weekend.

Thanks Jaime Quinn Santorelli for the video! We appreciate you

Thanks Jon Dietzel and William A. LaRue for helping us change the mag and points box. We really appreciate the help!

The great thing about this class is we all want to see each other pull.

Congrats Jon on the win with Howling Wolf - what a monster pass.

Thanks to everyone who came out to spend the evening with us. We hope you had fun!

Thanks to Brandon Lee for helping us get it freshened and running!

Thanks to SSi Superchargers for some awesome boost in that new supercharger.

And a special thank you to Ray Rice (Razor) from being one of the best announcers out there and getting the crowd pumped!
