April 17, 2004 - Jeremy headed to Big Daddy's South Boston Speedway for the first race of the USAR Hooters Pro Cup Northern Division schedule.  After very good results from the BF Goodrich tire test, he hoped for a good race weekend.

Friday was set aside for technical inspection and a two hour practice session.  Jeremy was able to get on the track for one green flag session to get the feel of his Chevrolet Monte Carlo on the track.  He did find that the car was not turning upon acceleration the way it had at Mansfield Motor Speedway.

Saturday started out with time to make changes to the car.  Jeremy took his experience from Friday's practice session to change the rear end gear and make a few other changes.  Throughout the day, the car was stable, but tight.  Using suggestions from Gary St. Amant, Jeremy was able to finally get the car to a slightly loose condition.  However, he still was not able to get enough grip to the racetrack for corner acceleration.

After the end of Saturday's practice, Jeremy made a few more changes to the car trying to make it as good as possible for his qualifying attempt.  He was to be the first qualifier of the day.  He put in two solid qualifying laps of 17.3 and 17.1 seconds.  However, the time was just not enough to make the field for Saturday night's Lucas Oil 250.

Jeremy currently has no concrete plans for his next USAR Hooters Pro Cup race.  In the immediate future, he plans to attend his next dirt stock car race at Scotland County Speedway in Memphis, MO this Friday and Saturday night, (April 27th and 28th) for the J&J Ag & Travel Connection USMTS special.
