Raisin decided not to run in the Pro race, and Greg Fox didn't bring a GT car, so we ran with seven.

Concours: Noose

TQ - Mike Swiss - 4.471 secs
2) Howie Ursaner - 4.486
3) Kevin Van Pelt - 4.514

Howie came out on blue breathing fire, with a 39 lap heat.
 
He fell back on purple and black, and then shorted his controller out across the terminals on yellow.
 
The last heat saw me trying to protect my three-lap lead on black, with Chris on orange.
There was a lot of hootin' and hollerin', with three guys battling for the last podium spot.
 
Noose prevailed, finishing with 38, running his fast race lap in the process, to take third, on the same lap as KVP and Jeremy.

Noose was just getting on the main straight, with KVP in the donut.

Boogie Boy just crossed the counter.

A motor is only as fast as the chassis it's in.

This and GTC-FK, before it, were hand-out races.

Howie qualified second, and ran fast race lap, buying only one motor.
