April 9, 2006: Start Your Engines!
Garrett's first race of the season was at the "Motor Mile Speedway" in Radford, Va.
Practice was good, 2nd fastest out of 33.  After practice he put new tires on to get ready for qualifying and had a screw in one of the tires!  He qualified 12th out of 33.  He moved up to 7th place in race and was passing the 6th place car when he had to slow down to keep from hitting a lapped car.  Garret and the 6th place car got into it,  and caution came out.  At the restart, the track put him back to 14th place. This all happened on lap 90 out of 100!  He finished 13th for the night.
Garrett's other favorite ride.
