Rockingham this coming Saturday evening (USA/Canada), where we race for an Hour in the next round of the Championship.

Sign up, sign up - let's get a decent field out for this one! A 1 mile oval with some nice banking should ensure some good racing is ahead.

A very intense race, lots of people commenting on some good racing out there. Indeed, from not one of my favourite tracks I got a lot of fun out of it!!!

It was looking like Luis Almeida was going to get that win, leading the vast majority of laps as he did. But T4 exit (LOL, for most of us!) proved too much just once, and that slight slide and loss of 7mph of momentum into T1 let Andy Graydon through to take victory with only minutes left!

Bob Fay would end up 2nd, Luis 3rd (bringing out the last caution as he pushed hard to catch Andy) as the race finished under time under the yellow flag.

In the Drivers standings we have as close a battle for the top 3 as we've had for some time. Bob Fay heads the standings on 505 points, Luis Almeida 2nd on 504 points, Andy Graydon 3rd on 498 points. 7 points cover the top 3 drivers with half the season now over!!!

In the Teams standings, CT Racing have a decent lead on 495 points, Joose 2nd on 379 and Escuderia Sul Brasil 3rd on 236 points.

San Jose is next, a real world ARCA venue in the past. Concrete walls, super tight hairpins, city landscape - the Stock Car version of Monaco for F1!!! Cya there, and get practicing now:)
