Old Time Saturday morning began on a chilly note in Farmersville, Texas for the LSGTPA pullers and fans. Temperatures dipped into the 40's as the first fall cold front swept through the area. Lane Duncan unloaded his 'Texas T-Rex' pulling tractor, wearing coat, hoodie, and gloves. The Duncan Motorsports team was hoping for a good showing in Farmersville, to maintain a top five position as the LSGTPA championship points season comes to a close with a three event in three weeks marathon.
Soon after the 'T-Rex' was unloaded, Lane's special guest arrived and warmed up the morning ! Nashville recording artist Ashliegh Lisset, was invited to perform the National Anthem for the event, and had graciously accepted the invitation. The talented young lady from Texas, had just returned from Nashville, and had just released her debut album 'Misunderstood'. Ashliegh showed up, on a chilly morning and after suffering from a cold previously in the week, in order to present our National Anthem and support Lane ! Ashliegh presented Lane with a 'goody bag' of CD's, her popular 'Misunderstood' wristbands, and poster !
Just as icing on the cake, or further incentive, Ashliegh performed the National Anthem in an awesome presentation, during opening ceremonies, sporting a #83 jersey that she had made in support of Lane !!! Awesome ! Lane later presented Ashliegh with an honorary pulling trophy, made for the event winners, in appreciation of her performance !
Then it was time to get down to business. After Ms. Lisset's stirring rendition of the National Anthem, the crowd was excited and the pullers were energized ! Lane was the second hook, and once he dumped the clutch, he never looked back, as he piloted the 'Texas T-Rex' straight down the middle of the track to his first FULL PULL !!!!! Lane was able to hold on and finish in the runner-up spot at the event, and moved into the second place in the points standings !
