He started 15th and worked his way to fifth. Then fell back again and then worked his way to the lead and held on for the win. YAY! Go Koby!!!
The video of the race is on dodgecityraceway.com

Mine did that too the first 4 times I watched it, but if I just left it alone it reloaded and finished. So just keep on trying

Yea that was a great run from the back. I seen early in the race he was way fast. He was definitely in wear it or win it mode.
Congrats to Koby for a great run.

Thanks, I really appreciate it. We had a really rough week from the Dallas deal, to the truck breakin down on the way back, and all the help with getting the truck and trailer back so we could put a rear end in the car for OKC. It all payed off! Thanks again to everyone supporting me and helping any way possible!

THANKS GUYS !!
I am very proud him, so i must brag a little.
HE WAS UNBELIEVABLY FAST !! Transfered from the B.
Started 15th & up to 5th in 10 laps yellow came out, & was mistaken for a red (rookie mistake) so he pulled it out of gear.
OH NO WAY ! I thought the car was overheated or something,but to my surprise he fired it off , and to the back it was.
Hoping for a top 10 was my thought,well was i ever wrong, he ripped his way through the field and with 6 laps to go checked out for the WIN !!
GREAT JOB SON! ( next week off to Hutchinson Nats.)
NCRA rookie of the year? He is on his way.
elbows up...stand on it hard.., & get that win!!

Congratulations to you as well Dad!!
I know how much time and money that you have invested in his racing career and you have greatly contributed to his success.
After all of the hard luck that you guys have had recently, nobody deserves this win more than you and Koby.
Good luck at Hutchinson.

Congrats guys. Saw the video and the car looked a little tight, which I know Koby likes. I hope you guys get a few more this year. The more OKC guys that go out and win the more recognition we all get.

Kevin, you and Evie have every right to be proud of Koby both on and off the track. You have raised an outstanding young man and one heck of a racecar driver. The values and work ethic you have taught him through your dedication and sacrifice have made him the awesome person that he is. So congratulations to you, Evie and Koby for a great job. Good luck with the rest of your season and I agree the NCRA Rookie title is very much within his reach

Great job Koby, coming from the back. Sweeeeet. You know you owe it all to me, after all I was the one that told you not to stay at the Waffle House all night on Friday.
Fill us in was it the Biscuits and Gravy, or the waffle syrup ?

Good Job! It takes alot of talent to come from the back and win a race. I know that Mom & Dad are very proud of you too.
