This post comes with a great sadness, in Loving Memory of Cheryl Denise Jones, the Memorial Lap was led by Jim Jones in the 26 car and Kyten Jones in the 30 car.  It is never easy to write a post about a Memorial Lap, but usually they were about men who passed away at an elder age and raced for many years. Not about a lovely young women who passed away at the young age of 44.

Cheryl was one of those racing wives who gave 100% to support her husband Jim and son Kyten in racing.  Cheryl was the front runner for the huge BBQs after an evening of racing and always included everyone to join in the big spread of food.  I, for one, will miss Cheryl who was an amazing women and friend.

Thank you to all the racing teams who participated in the Memorial lap. Too the families and friends who came out to support the Jones family during the Memorial Lap.

Bobby Wheeler, Jr in the 22 car took home another Main Event Trophy.
