May 22, 2006- MILLER MOTORSPORTS PARK- UTAH

Welch Racing and Derek DeBoer made a very strong showing, ran a very quick pace and proved to be very competitive throughout the entire weekend. Results didn't follow suit as the Welch Racing/ Gold and Gems #9 car was plagued with gearbox problems that occurred mid-way through Saturdays race. Derek was running a very strong 3rd position, but was unable to maintain with the transmission problems. The team did a great job getting the car back together for Sundays race and again a good race pace was set and the #9 ultimately finished in 6th place. Derek was a little disappointed in the result, but overall it was a very good weekend at the new Utah facility and a lot was learned about the 4.5 mile circuit and proper car set-up.
