I was able to catch some of the races, a big thanks to those who made the livestream coverage possible. 

 

I missed the GTC race, it looks like the A Main was kind of a mess, lots of wrecking?

A Main was great racing. Unfortunately, half the racers blew motors. This was not a motor issue. Just the track getting rubbered up and cars not being freed up enough.

Thanks again to the team at Piranha for their hospitality and of course to Rich Curnutte for giving us a great place to race.  

 

See everyone next year!
