Coupe results Duran wasted no time with a brand new car to simply administer an old fashioned "butt whoopin" to a bunch of pretty good racers with a record shattering 323 lap run! Congrats Duran! The "also rans" actually had a great scrap amongst themselves with everyone over 300 laps with Bryan just edging Bill who just edged Gary who just edged Dale who just edged Rick! Great race!

Man, leave it to Duran to come up with a different looking, but, winning chassis. Worked to perfection.

Congrats to Duran, Bryan and Bill. Bill was having trouble with his coupe car and minutes before the race I handed him my backup car. He took a dozen or so laps, smiled and put it on the Podium. Great job Bill.

Bill had a pretty good run in Coupes. He did well. In that "B" main picture, it looks like Bill is pulling a gun. Cracked me up!

Great racing. I upped my best previous coupe lap total by 5 laps. Lookin' to join the 300 club soon!
Super report as always Bryan
