Congrats Greg!

I guess this means that Brian Price didn't hit the trifecta, as it looked like he registered for SM, SSM and ITA?

Speaking of Price, I heard there was some contact in the SM race, anyone care to share the details? :blink:

Congrats Greg!

I dont know the details, but I know there were a lot of unhappy campers. Also, congrats to Kevin Kopp on his win in SM.

Standing up by timing and scoring (Sunday Race), it looked like it was unintentional. But it looks like it ended in a DQ and a DNF for the involved parties. Too bad!

I was working in turn 3 on Saturday (novice Permit volunteer work). I got to black flag the SM race due to very close thunder and lightning. Then I moved indoors for the re-start and did ribbon recording of numbers as they pass start finish. I'll tell you what, that was not a bad place to watch a great race in the rain!!! :D

Brian only drove in SM. No ITA/SSM for him this weekend.

I don't have video from my race (ITA; Group 2). I did get my camera on, but forgot to hit record. Posted Image

It was fun though! I LOVED Saturday (qualified 14, finished 8) Posted Image

Not bad for my first race weekend!

Way to much contact in sundays race. My car was treated like a pinata, I threw paper but my protest was disallowed even though i had a witness from the car behind and a torn up race car. Really discouraging, I see why people dont protest more I waited at the track until 6:30 for nothing.
