The Wyatt Olson team spent this past weekend in Mandan and Minot. We went to Mandan on
Friday night with the modified. The heat race got off to a good start but ended up with a poor
finish. We went on to race in the B-main and started 4th. The car was running well and we
ended up in second place, moving up to the A-main for the night. We finished the A-main in 9th
place after starting 22nd. We were excited that the car is coming around and that there wasn’t
much to work on before racing at Nodak in Minot on Sunday.
Sunday we started 1st row outside for the heat race and quickly took the lead. We held on to
that lead to win our heat. This put us 2nd row outside for the A-main. We were able to move
up to 2nd within a few laps but after many cautions throughout the feature we slipped back into
the field. We finished 9th in the A-main. We also want to send Marlyn Seidler a get-well wish
after a hard crash in the last few laps of the race.
Thanks for checking in with us. We plan to have our 2007 trading cards available this coming
weekend. We also have a limited supply of 2006 t-shirts left and have reduced the price from
$20 to $15. Stop by the trailer or send your request on the website. We hope to see you at the
races this weekend!
If you see us at the track, make sure to stop by and say hello & thanks for taking the time to
visit wo57.com!

PS: and I'll leave you with a couple of new pictures. Here's a picture of Ann's recent graduation
from Iowa State University in May of 2007. Shown here with Ann and I are my parents, Ole and
Claudia. And the picture after that is another shot of our 2007 Larson Racing modified.
