Randy Weaver BACK in a SLM

Never have been able to figure out how to post pictures on here, but just saw on the DirtRacingNation Instagram page that the Dream Weaver himself is BACK in a SLM!

Car looks badass! He was running in the front
with the first and second place cars when the car cut out on him. They said that the battery went bad before the feature on FB and I guess he didn't have a backup with him. Good to see after 2.5 years he still has it.

He spun out on lap 19 running third, and then pulled off.

even though a lot of people gave up on him , maybe even himself , after the crash , I had a pretty good feeling we hadn't seen the end of his career , just needed some time to heal , both physically and mentally......

I wonder if he was pitted next to Overton...

That way they could share Grant?

Never knew anyone gave up on him... It was my understanding he got a concussion in a crash, I believe at EAMS, rolling the car several times. After which, HE chose to retire from driving. Ironically he was using all the safety equipment later mandated by the, "all knowing" late model council. Seems like Brian Shirley had a similar crash the same season with the same level of safety equipment and got the same injury. Hmmm? Glad Randy is back behind the wheel, if he wants to be.

This is true. He was really bad for a while. Couldn't be around loud noises or bright light because of the concussion.

Makes me wonder if some of the team frustrations were caused by Randy knowing he was ready to drive again and feeling like he could do it better

**Pennsboro23** · 07-18-2018, 02:57 PM

Overton >> Weaver

That wasn't the case. Randy really had no desire to ever get back in a car if you talked to him, it almost sounded like it scared him to think about it. The day it was said he would driving his sons crate car really blew my mind. I never expected him to get back in a car ever again.
