Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | DNF |
| On Friday 1Oct10, the 40 team traveled to Potomac Speedway with great expectations built up for our first win of the 2010 season! Warm-ups went well with the car feeling very good, We seamed to be hooked up very good as well as the power was up! In the time trials we qualified 4th fastest out of 14 cars, not bad as I have never run time trials before. In the heat we started 2nd and got out front and never looked back. We finished 1st out of 7 cars. Saturday we came back for the second day of the Southern Md. Nationals. Warm-ups went well again, the car was handling great and seamed to have some kind of extra power to it! The feature event we started 2nd. We got out front from the get go, leading the 1st 21 laps! Then something happened that should never have been tolerated! The #81 car under yellow spun us out. Now this is at least the 4th time this year we have been taken out by this young kid! I was not going to tolerate this anymore, so I took it upon my self to retaliate and return the love and take him out. I know this was the wrong thing to do, however enough is enough. We both however got disqualified after this. What a disappointment it was for good week-end to be ruined by a young kid that obviously does not know the meaning of clean racing! The CRW flags/RCR #40 team finishes up the 2010 season 2nd in the Hobby Stock points. This season would not have been possible with-out the great and dedicated sponsors of the team:
But out of all the people that I need to thank, the most is obviously God - as without Him nothing would be possible. And then there was my Crew Chief Amy, what a privilege it is to work alongside your daughter as she has made many tough decisions this year and most have even worked! I love you Amy. See yah next year! God Bless.God Bless! -Don |

| With the 40 team throwing a wild set-up under the car this week we went to Potomac with high expectations! Warm-up went well, car was plenty fast and it handled great! In the heat race we started 4th and before we even got to the 1st turn we found ourselves in 1st. We never looked back and won the heat race! The feature race we started 2nd and once again before we got to the 1st turn found ourselves in 1st once again! We lead the field until lap 6 when the yellow came out. While under yellow our right rear tire went flat. We had to make an unscheduled pit stop and eventually finished 7th out of 11 cars. Next races 3Sept and 5Sept. -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 7/9 |
| We thought was going to be the night for our first win of 2010! Warm-ups went well. In the heat race we started first. We lost one spot and finished in the second spot, however we got credit for first as the first place car was disqualified for being too light at the scales. We officially finished 1st out of 9 cars. For the feature, we started 5th and in 2 laps found ourselves in 1st. We ran 1st until lap 11 when the #81 came off the outside wall and ran into the side of us sandwiching us into the #93 car! We kept the car going, but we eventually received a flat tire. We tried to get back out and compete but we went down a lap and finished 7 out of 9 cars. What a disappointment as this should have been our 1st win! Next race 13Aug10. God Bless, -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 5/7 |
| Once again the team traveled to Potomac Speedway to make another attempt to win our first race of the season. Warm-ups went well with Rusty Altman #93 and myself running side by side for most of the practice session. The car handled great with one minor problem, we jetted the carburetor up a little too much. In the heat race we started fifth with the carburetor jetted down a little. We ran OK until getting taken out by the #81 car. We restarted in the back and moved up a little finishing fourth out of seven cars. In the feature race we started fourth and ran in the top four until getting run up the track on lap five by the same car that hit us in the heat race. We kept going... unfortunately there were no yellow flags to ever get caught back up. We finished fifth out of seven cars. We'll be back on Friday 6Aug10. God Bless, -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 5/7 |
| Racing on Friday was un-eventful! Very HOT and we had a very late night at Potomac Speedway! Warm-ups went well with the car feeling good, and all of numerous repairs and changes seemingly working well. In the heat, we started third and ran well finishing 2nd out of seven cars. The feature we started third and got bumped around a bit; however, we handled well and seemed to be pretty fast. We moved up as far second and after some contact lost a few spots. We eventually finished fifth out of seven cars. No major damage and even though we only finished fifth, we were encouraged as we were within just a few car lengths of the lead at all times. We were just a tick off and hopefully with a few more changes this week, we can pick up a few more horsepower and get the handling adjusted a little more. God Bless, -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 4/9 |
| We tried again to get the monkey off our back and get our first win of 2010! Warm-ups went well with many changes done during the week. We were not sure what to expect! The team changed the master cylinder and made numerous adjustments to the brakes to hopefully take care of our braking issues. We also changed the jets in the carburetor as well as made changes to the front-end alignment. In addition to that Richard repaired the body. In the heat race we started third (3rd), ran OK finished up fifth out of nine cars. We started fifth in the feature after a two hour rain delay. During the rain delay we made some additional adjustments to the brakes to loosen the car up. The race started out very promising! We were in the top four or five for the first four laps. The car was running and handling very well. Then the power steering went away. I fought the steering for the rest of the race and finished fourth out of nine cars. We identified the problem with the steering after the race, the heim joint on the steering arm locked up. Fortunately, that is just a ten dollar part and it was not the power steering pump, as that would have cost a few more bucks! Next race Friday 23Jul10. God Bless, -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 4/10 |
| Racing on Friday was a little better than the last time on the track! Warm-ups went well, with all of the changes we made with the brakes and suspension! In the heat we started 2nd and led for a while and eventually finished third in the heat. In the feature we started third and ran competitively and finished fourth. All in all we were happy as we made a positive stride towards getting this car to finally handle and run up front. This week we will be making some more changes to the brakes as well as the suspension and hopefully we will be ready for that first win of 2010! God Bless, -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 6/9 |
| Racing on Friday was quite the adventure! It all started in practice. We got one lap in and the throttle linkage broke! We got that repaired, it was a broken heim joint in the linkage. The heat race we started third and were competitive for most of the race. We lost ground during the race and finished seventh out of nine cars. The feature was a whole another story! We started second and held our ground running in the top five for the first part of the race. One of our fellow competitors must not have liked us so he made contact with us all during the race. We even found ourselves sideways going into turn one and two three times, by getting run into by this guy! We then found ourself making contact with this guy going down the front straight away and we both received a flat tire. we got that repaired and finished the race finishing sixth out of nine cars. The Hobby Stocks are off this coming week-end and will hopefully have a better night on 9July10. God Bless, -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 5/9 |
| Once again, we attempted to have a good week at Potomac Speedway. Warm Ups went well, the car seemed to handle ok, as it always does on a wet track. In the heat, we started 1st out of 9 cars. The track was extremely dry. Once again, the car was tight. We finished 8th out of 9 cars. In the feature race, we started 8th out of 9 cars. We finished 5th. The car was still extremely tight in the turns. It was quite a disappointment after making numerous changes to the car over the past week. We asked for help from one of our fellow competitors. We had him run our car around the track for a few laps to try and assess our problems. Quickly, he determined that we had a serious braking issue as the master cylinder was not allowing us to have any rear breaks. He informed us that by changing the master cylinder and making the proper brake adjustments, that should fix out handling problems for the upcoming weeks. We are off on 18 June, we return to racing on 25 June. God Bless, -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 6/8 |
| Not such a good night for the 40 Team! The car just did not want to handle! Warm-up went OK the car did handle in the warm ups. The heat race was another thing! We started forth and could not get hooked up at all tight in all four turns. we finished fifth out of eight. In the feature race we started on the pole and the car did not handle at all. We plowed up in each turn and could not get bite in any turn. We finished sixth out of eight. WE WILL MAKE MANY CHANGES THIS WEEK TO TRY TO FIGURE THIS CAR OUT FOR FRIDAY'S EVENT. God Bless, -Don |

Potomac Speedway | Don Breach | 4/11 |
| On 30 May, we once again tried to obtain our first win of the season. Took the track for warm ups and felt like the car handled well--no problems. In the heat race, we started 2nd. Ran competitively side by side most of the race with the 2D car and finished 2nd out of 11 cars. Feature race started 4th--the track changed quite a bit, and the car didn't handle as well as in the heat race, but did finish 4th out of 11 cars. The only damage was that we lost a bumper. Slight damage was done when we came in contact with the 2D car. Next race 4 June 2010. We will try again! God Bless, -Don |

| Racing at Potomac Speedway on Friday was quite interesting! We had a positive warm-up session! we made some engine adjustments during the week in hopes of getting a few more horsepower, In the warm-ups we felt a little difference in the engine. In the Heat race we started on the pole. We got out in front and never looked back! We finished 1st out of 9 cars. In the Feature we started 3rd. The track changed quite a bit. The car was tight in turns 3&4, and loose in 1&2, We stayed out of trouble and finished 3rd out of nine cars. On the last lap, the 1st and 2nd place cars took each other out, and one got disqualified and the other never got across the finish line. What a finish! I am not sure if it was just hard racing or just a little demo derby in the Hobby Stock division? Next race is Friday 28May10 and Sunday 30May10, yes two races next week-end! Have a great week!!!!!!!!!!!! Don............ |

| The 40 team was at Potomac Speedway to compete on Friday night once again in high hopes of training the new race car to make left turns! In the warm up we felt the car was starting to handle better. We started last in the heat race and had to check up in the early part of the race to avoid a fellow competitor. We lost our momentum and never caught up. We finished 7th out of 12 cars. In the feature, we started 8th; held our own for most of the race, and about 1/2 into the feature the car started hooking up. We finished 5th out of 12. God Bless! |

| With high hopes the 40 team was at Potomac Speedway to try to get the new car to finally handle! Warm ups went well the car seamed to be handling good. We started third in the heat race. We were very tight and finished fifth. We found that the front brakes were locking up thus causing us to have problems keeping the car low in the turns. In the feature: we started, we had one good lap, and then the car was impossible to drive. Every time we went into the turn the car shot up and would not handle at all! We continued on and finished the race finishing fifth out of eight. We continue to try to figure the new car out and get this car to handle as we have plenty of power! Potomac Speedway is once again closed this Friday. Next race 7May10. God Bless! Don............. |

| After extensive work done all week on the 40 car, we were very excited about going down to Potomac Speedway and seeing the results! We replaced all four shocks and replaced all four springs, shifted weights around, and scaled the car at the ProFab shop. Thanks to Kyle Lear and Moe Dafino for all of their help. Practice went well with the car handling pretty good. Don started eight out of ten cars in the heat race. We came up with a fifth place with our car very very tight! We started on the pole (1st) for the feature. That did not last long as Don got spun out on the second lap. We struggled early in the feature. About half way through the race the car started to handle, but the power steering went out. Don maneuvered the car the best he could and finished third out of ten cars. No racing next week-end, we will be back on the track at Potomac Speedway on the Friday 23Apr10. |

| The 2010 season finally kicked off Friday 2Apr10. We went into the night with high hopes with our new Hobby Stock car. The warm-ups went well with no problems to address before our heat. In our heat race, we started third and quickly moved up to second until a fellow competitor got into right rear and nearly put us into the wall. We received a flat rear tire thus ending out heat race. We finished seventh out of seven in the heat race. In the feature we started eleventh. We held our own for most of the race with the 40 car not handling good at all! We were tight in one turn and loose in the other. With attrition very high. We finished 3rd out of thirteen cars. We plan on making numerous changes before traveling down to Potomac Speedway next Friday in hopes of getting that first win in 2010. Happy Easter to all and will see you at the races! God Bless!!

| The RCR/CRW Flags race team took off to Potomac Speedway Friday evening and we had our first win! Don had a good heat race starting third and running very well finished in third. In the feature race, Don started first and never looked back. He finally got the monkey off his back and achieved his first career win!!! Many thanks to all the great sponsors and dedicated crew members that made this possible. In the fifteen lap Sunoco Race Fuel Hobbystock main event it was Don Breach picking up his first ever career win. Breach and Meador (the 2nd place car) would lead the field to the green with Breach taking the lead. Breach and Meador battled but it was Breach leading all fifteen circuits to pick up the win, Ronald Meador second, third Jimmy Suite, fourth Jason Murphy, and completing the top five was Troy Kassiris. |
