In the B Main, Boogie hung within two laps of me most of the race, until I pulled away the last two heats.
Top four moved up into the A.

In the A Main, Chris Radisich demonstrated why he's one of the top flat rack racers in the world.
Chuck hung within a couple laps for awhile, but when Chris hit the low lanes, he checked out, including an incredible 35 lap heat on purple.
I got the right pinion on my King track car for the A, and managed to hold off KVP and Howie for the last podium spot.

WTG, Diana!
My only A Main at a big Retro race was also in the F1 race on the flat track (Sano 4?).

Chris's lap total and qualifying time are both records, but barely.
At Sano 8, where I barely reopened in time for the event and the Flat track wasn't running at the the start, Chuck Gambo qualified at a 4.97 and ran 267 laps.

Larry,
Great time racing with you. Made me push. Proud that it was my design and my build F1. Saved my Samson for the King - qualified in the B Main with it. A better driver could have been in the A. It is a superior car. Thanks, Dennis!

Really nice to see both Larry and Diana do so well at Sano 10. Congrats to you both!

Never forget that first place goes to the racer with the MOST laps, not the racer with the FASTEST lap
