Practice opened promptly at DT Hobbies at 8 am. After practice, a light field of 4 Amateur's signed in. After lane selections and a brief warmup, we were ready to go.

Ron Pearson got going early with Gary Culy on his tail. They ran like that for the first 3 segments. Robert Rodgers moved into contention and took second from Gary. With 3 segments left, Robert was 3 laps down and closing. He finally caught Ron and took the lead in the last heat and cruised to a 1 lap lead for his second win of the year. Ron Pearson finished second with Gary Culy and Bob Sier following.

Robert's car was a Rodgers chassis, geared 9-26 with JK Treated's on the rear.

Congrats to Robert, Ron and Gary on their podium finish.
