2003 SEASON -

September 27 - Rockford Speedway - Last GLALS points race of the 2003 season. Started out the day by being the fastest car in all three practice sessions. Qualified in the second position. WON the fast dash by a complete straightaway. WON the heat race by a complete straight.WON  the feature event ! by nearly five car lenghts over 2003 champion Keith Tolf. After starting eighth in the feature event, and quickly moving to second through traffic, we closed up on the 07, finally pulling along side after a miscalculation on Tolf's part. thats all we needed as we led the final seven of thirty laps to take home our second feature win of the year.

September 20 - Kalamazoo Speedway - Qualifed an unusual 6th, our worst of the season. Started 6th in the heat race, finished 2nd after some close calls. Started fourth in the feature, car just didn't seem to come in until around lap 12 of 20, finished the feature right where we started, 4th. Now less than 60 points out of 2nd in the GLALS Standings.

September 6 - Illiana Motor Speedway - qualifed about 5 tenths off of fast time. finished 3rd in the heat race, due to car count the millennium feature had to run at the tail end of the mid am feature. WRECK first lap, took out several cars, we were involved in the rear, fixed the car. worked up to about 12th from that point on, after starting around 20th. not bad. gained some more experience.HIGHEST FINISHING MILLENNIUM LATE MODEL!

September 5 - Lake Geneva Raceway - Late model event, qualified bad, finished the heat race bad, started last in the feature, passed a car, didn't get lapped

August 30 - Illiana Motor Speedway - took the millennium late model out for the first time. Finished the car about an hour before we had to leave. NO PRACTICE on the car at all, and I'd NEVER driven a late model before. We experienced some problems in tech, took awhile to fix, THANK YOU BAY DARNELL!, couldn't have gotten the car done without you. After having only 4 laps of practice (in second gear riding around the bottom) we qualified less than a second off of fast time! having only 4 laps in a late model at half speed! stayed with the pack in the heat race, spun. Started the feature with a goal of not getting lapped or spinning. did just that, good first nite. had a couple problems with the car, but overall we were very happy with our performance and look forward to the next race.

August 23 - New Paris Speedway - Qualified 3rd, panhard bar heim broke while qualifying, first lap was only less than two tenths off of fast time. Pulled off not one but two three wide passes in the heat race, just to get shuffled back due to traffic near the end. Because of our heat race finish we had to start 11th in the feature. worked up to about 6th threw traffic, spun after getting chopped by the car in front of us on lap 15 or so, started in the back again, came back threw traffic all the way up to 3rd place. with about 5 laps to go the throttle started sticking, preventing us from an even better finish. ended up 3rd.

August 16 - Indianapolis Raceway Park - Qualified 2nd (26.84) missed fast time by 2 one hundreths(26.82). Jumped out to an early lead going into the first corner, continued on to lead all 35 laps and WON THE FEATURE EVENT! Held off challenges from Hobson, Sommer and Tolf,  in fine fashion,  all in front of nearly 15 - 20,000 fans! - www.irponline.com  states "Another Commanding performance by the #77 of Brad Kossow" !

June 21 - Rockford Speedway - Qualified 2nd again, (15.7) 3rd in the dash, WON the heat race, started 3rd in the feature, chased down keith tolf towards the end of the race, but didn't have enough time or car, finished in 2nd place.
