First Divisional or National event stories

[Ryan Horensky]

The Pennzoil Nationals at Virginia Motorsports Park when I was 18. I believe it rained Wednesday and Thursday. We had (1) qualifying run on Friday. I think the quickest run per class was designated the class winner. I wasn't the quickest run. I got my time slip and was invited to the tear down barn along with the (2) other youngest racers running stock at the event (Bryan Sorce and Gary Simpers Jr). In the lanes before first round, the security guard tried to throw me out of the lanes because he thought I was a spectator even though I had my credentials. I lost brake pressure and pushed through the staging beam 1st round for the loss. Definitely had the full National Event experience during that race.
