Congratulations to the winners, Matt Bruce, Duran Trujillo, and myself and a special nod to Matt!! An AWESOME Can-Am win, besting an AWESOME field of racers and just an outstanding weekend, Matt. CONGRATS!! Great run, Duran, to come from the B to win in F1!!
Another great showing this year by the "out of towners". This year Retro Tokyo REALLY got in the action with a fine fourth in Can-Am by Haruki and the next day, Kamo, Haruki, and Tebu SWEPT the first three spots in F1 qualifying!! Tebu ran a super race to secure third.
Great effort, Gary Donahoe, to be the only racer to podium in Can-Am and F1 with a well-deserved third and second. Great weekend, Gary!
Congrats also to Haruki with his Can-Am and F1 Presentation Concours wins with bodies by Noose! Earl McCutcheon was the Realistic winner in both classes with his usual superb stuff! Great-looking cars also from Jairus Watson, Eddie Mac, and Jeff Bigelow.
