This event Derek got to bring along some great help, long time friends & former race team members, Kyle Keller & Steve Moore. Friday Sept. 15th: was a day full of prepping & pre-running to make sure the car was in top condition for qualifying. Later that day they went to town for tech at a local burger joint.

Saturday Sept. 16th – Race Day: Derek & the guys proved they were ready to go by taking 2nd in qualifying! “It helps a bunch to be at the front of the pack when your racing mainly in trees/woods. It can be challenging to get around other competitors”, Derek West stated. So later that afternoon once all the other classes ran it was time for the 4400 class to race. He ran great with little issues & pushed the car to it’s limits to stay at the front of the pack. It was a good race with Derek taking 2nd place with Clay Gilstrap taking 1st place. Overall it was a fun race! A great end to the East coast Ultra 4 series for 2016.
