My son got his first win in S/Pro yesterday at LVMS. He had never raced anything at all until last year. We threw him in the family trickster and turned him loose in S/Pro. He struggled at first but has been learning since day 1. Well 14 months later it has paid off with a W. He entered a $2500 race on Saturday and gave it back with a bye to the final on the line. Came back on Sunday and got it done. He has listened well and it is all starting to come together for him. He was .011 on the tree and took .0032 at the stripe killing .04 and scrubbing 8 mph. So Congrats to Steven for getting his first W hopefully the first of many more. Bigger and better to come.
proud pops great job

Hell it isn't even Father's Day. Great job to the both of you. The time and effort that it has taken to get here is well worth it. Enjoy it.

Congrats!...on many fronts. It is not so common for father and son to have that great a relationship (at this age anyway lol) so no doubt you are a cooperative part of this success.
