Good morning Cenni Fans

Rounds 11 and 12 wrapped up.
09-26-2011 This weekends events have wrapped up in sunny and warm Surprise, AZ. Adrian had a great qualifying on Friday, taking the 3rd place slot and inverting for the poll for Saturday. We did have to bow out a few laps short with a drive line issues. Saturday was shaping up to be a great race. We started on the poll and held the lead for the first few laps. Kyle and Rick made their way past and Carl was in the fight. WIth a few bumps from Carl, we got sent off track and sheered off the back of the transmission, closing out our Saturday. Sunday put us in the second row for the main. We held it all together and moved up to second place off the start. We were able to hold off the pack until Adrian got tangle up in a spin and thru him to the back of the pack. Adrian made a good push to get back up with the pack and we lost front drive, ending our Sunday. We would like to thank all of the crew and supporters for coming out in the 100+ degree heat. Make sure to tune into TORC for Chicago. - TB
Live on SPEED, from Chicago. Watch Adrian
09-14-2011 Watch Adrian live tonight on SPEED, tear up good ole Chicago with his #11 Pro4 Atruim/Maxxis truck.
Hot off the presses, Adrian's first person experience from his outstanding weekend at Crandon.
09-02-2011 Crandon Friday Race – Started on pole position and got a great start. Was first through turn one. First lap from a landrush start, the brakes are cold, so you have to be careful that they don’t work as well until they are up to temperature. You could overshoot the turns with cold brakes. However, entering the turns was fairly predictable, and opened up a decent lead. At the hairpin turn by the landrush start is the point where you can see where the other trucks are in comparison to you, and every lap looked better and better. At the competition yellow, got a decent start and was able to get into the same groove and pull away from the other trucks again. The checkered flag came easily.
Crandon Saturday Race – Started in last place which was on the outside of the second row. Was put to the back because we were late to the start line for the line up. To me this was a debatable call on the officials part. There was plenty of time to give us our spot back. Anyhoo – on the start, Johnny Greaves was on the pole and Ricky Johnson was next to him, and Steve Barlow and myself were behind them in the second row. Johnny and Ricky got a good start and I followed them into turn one. Johnny moved out away from the wall near the entry of turn one to get a better run at the corner, and had contact with Ricky. That allowed me to get in the mix, and I came out right behind those two and also Mark or Mike Jenkins, I think it was Mark. I was able to pass Mark at the entry to Argon corner because he went a little wide to set up for the corner. Took a lap or so to catch up to Ricky and then went inside and passed him at the finish line turn. Coming down to the hairpin turn by the landrush start line I executed a perfect slide setup move to rail the inside trees of the hairpin , except for one major problem, my slide stopped about ten feet short of where it was supposed to end up, so I still had trees blocking me. Had to swing around and drive out of the missed slide and lost the position back to Ricky. On the mandatory caution restart, I went inside on Ricky at the gravel pit turn and drifted out on the exit. Ricky was coming thru on the same exit path just over a half car length behind and we had contact – His front tire hit my back tire. Completed the pass and then caught up to Johnny by the hairpin turn at the landrush start. Johnny pushed wide at the turn and I was able to get next to him and then drag race down the back straight into turn one. Got the lead and then opened up a cushion until the finish.
Crandon Sunday Race - Started in seventh position next to Mike Jenkins and Kyle LeDuc. Got a good start and came out of turn one behind Mark Jenkins in second place. Was able to get around Mark and got into the lead. Once in the lead, there was racing going on behind and so a big gap opened up to second place. Steve Barlow was in second place behind me at the caution. I was thinking that a team one two finish would be fantastic. On the restart Steve was good about not having contact with me at the gravel pit turn, and then I was able to pull out a good gap to second place over the next couple of laps. The fight for second place made the gap grow a bunch and everything seemed fantastic until the last two laps when it started to rain, and the track became slippery and vision was a real problem. The inside of my helmet visor fogged up and I had to open the visor to see. It felt on my face and eyes like driving in a hail storm without a helmet, so I was very concerned that I would lose the lead. The lap time on the last lap increased by 20 seconds, but I was able to make it to the checkered for the win driving as if I was looking through a keyhole sized view of the track.
Crandon Sunday Cup Race - Started on the pole and had a great run down to the first turn. Go the lead out of the Pro 4 pack and the truck was running great. Coming out of the hairpin by the landrush start line, I got more of a run out of the hairpin turn than usual and got into the small double jump very hot and got bucked high in the air. Landed hard on the front right wheel and blew out the cv joint. This kicked me wide into the grass field and I went into turn one with three wheel drive. I still did not know I was broken. I hit the brakes hard for the barn jump and the truck pulled out of control to the left because of not having drive in the front right side. I went over the jump completely sideways and miraculously did not flip and roll. I gathered myself up and fishtailed down to the gravel pit, but had lost four wheel drive and now had a flat tire from landing sideways. We were done. Man was that truck running strong. Thanks team – Jeff Frana, Kenny Stahlman, Steve Barlow, Bob, John, Jerry, Kenny, BK, Creighton at Maxxis, Mike at Roush, Charlie at ATD, Jessie, Ryan and the other team members who may or may not turn wrenches on the truck. Special shootout to Lil Mama, cheer us on from above.

5-22-2011 Can the #11 Atrium/Maxxis truck get any faster? Adrian posted the second fastest time in qualifying with a 44.163. With the inverted start, Adrian started out in fourth place. When the green flag dropped Adrian moved his way up to the lead by turn 3. The #11 truck opened up the lead to around 6 truck lengths by the end of lap 2. Then the gremlins came to destroy our hopes for victory. A very simple failure to a wire insulation shorted out the electrical systems. Watch out for a come back. -TB
