Already got some feedback of minor corrections.

 

Dom Luongo is from the New Hampshire family but uses the MA voice disguise to fool others.

 

James Grandi ran a 7R in his winning F1. It was one of his handouts for the GTC-Pro race.

Good to see that 10 year old come in and hold his own. Very nice run for Jamaal Lee. Young racer on the way!

Thanks for posting such a great report, Joe.

 

I love reading your reports even though we don't race these classes and we are so far away from the action :)

Holey Crap!

 

 One of the top Can-Am cars was not a TI22 body.

Not the first time that has happened at this track in Can-Am.

I can't remember the last time Weaver used a TI22 there. He always goes for the Lola. Seems to work for him lol

I'm big fan of the Lola on kings too. For me it was a tick faster and smoother especially as the track got stuck more.

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