Bring Out The Broom, Robert Ballou Sweeps GSC Weekend!
by Gary Costa
June 4th, 2006...After winning the Golden State Challenge Series show the night before in Watsonville, California, The Ballou Motorsports team located in Rocklin, California, headed for tight confines of Placerville Speedway.
 
"The weekend isn't over, I love Placerville.", The confident 17 year old sensation commented just minutes after winning the previous evening.
 
It was all business for The Ballou Motorsports team when they pulled into the gate at the speedway.
 
"The Rocklin Rocket" and The Ballou Motorsports team quickly showed that the night previous wasn't a fluke.
 
It was Placerville Speedway's turn to feel the power of the Don Ott Racing Engine this night.
 
The John Ballou owned and Darin Smith wrenched MAXIM qualified in the 3rd spot. Robert went out in his heat, did his job on the Speedway, and transfered not only into the main event, but the all important dash where he finished 4th.
 
Like the saying goes; "When the green flag drops, the bullshit stops". When the green was thrown, Robert took that motto to heart. After lap 1, he was already in the 2nd spot, and charging after the always tough Jonathan Allard.
 
Late in the race "Rocket" drove around Allard on the top. But the always tough Allard got back by Robert on a restart in the exciting 30 lapper.
 
Robert answered back, anted up, and threw a slide job on Allard and put it all together for back-to-back wins, and a sweep of Golden State Challenge Series action.
 
Robert collected an additional $1,000 for his sweep. Ex-racer Jerry Ponzo put up a $500 bonus for Saturday's show, and a fan put up $500 for Friday night's win. Thank you!
 
We would like to thank you the fan, for your continued support of Ballou Motorsports.
 
Our next race is more GSC action this Saturday at Petaluma Speedway.
 
We would also like to thank all of our loyal sponsors: Gardemeyer Finish Carpentry, THR & Sons, Gliko Hardware & Construction, SCHLAGE, Kaeding Performance, MPD, Swimming Pool Perfection’s, A1A Performance Mufflers, NAAKE Suspension Specialists, and Don Ott Racing Engines
