Thursday Nov. 3rd

Last week's racing was just as tight as as previous weeks with the points series tied in Trans Am and now Can Am with just three points separating first thru fourth in Can Am and just three laps separating first thru fourth in Group 5.  S&S Management is hoping the new flexible classes are an attributing factor.  Last week, Jr secured four heat wins in Can Am scoring 73 laps for first place.  Scott rallied three heat wins and 71 laps for second place.  JJ rang up one heat win and third place with 70 laps for third place while Frank rounded out the podiums with two heat wins and 69 laps.  The Group 5 racing was just as interesting, with Scott scoring four heat wins and first place with 76 laps.  JJ finished second with four heat wins and 73 laps.  Frank polished the third place trophy with 72 laps, while Jr finijhsed fourth with two heat wins and 71 laps. 

This week's line-up proves to be interesting again.  We have our grabastic GT class and a different Rally group.  Rules are the same for GT, while the Rally cars will run up to Blue Motor specs, NC5/JP Slot and the Prospeed (not 4H) for the SCX cars.  Cars can either be 2 or 4WD.  NSR cars prohibited and any NINCO cars must be an inline motor configuration.  Any lead wire, guide, braid, wheels, axels, gears, and tires of choice. See you at the track!
