For those who don't patronize the other board:
I'll let some of the participants fill in the details, but there were some excellent races yesterday and today at Summit. As seen from pit lane:
First, our old friend and girlie car driver Rob Myles (aka wreckerboy) did the geezers proud, scoring a 7th place finish in the Saturday SSM sprint race, and a 10th place finish in today's 20 lap feature race, both in hard fought races in very large (30+ car) and competitive fields. WTG dude!
ITB was also very tight both days, with Scott Holman in his Plymouth Arrow edging Tristan Herbert's Golf by .002 seconds for the Saturday win, in a race where the top 4 cars ran nose-to-tail (and door-to-door) for most of the race. The Sunday feature race was just as close, with the top 5 cars running close together for the entire 18 laps. Mark Raspi eventually took the win in his 2002 over Jim Stem's Volvo.
ITA, while not as dramatic at the front, still had some great racing a little further back in the pack. Brian 'Rowdy' Price easily won both races, slightly bettering his previous record in the Saturday 10-lapper, but wasn't happy with that and went out Sunday and ran almost .4 secs faster, posting a best time of....get this.... 1:25.305! Yeah, you heard right - 1:25.3 in an ITA car...
And just to throw a little more gas on the bon fire...wanna guess what 10 of the top 12 finishers in ITA were driving??? Granted, several of our usual top-10 cars weren't running (Gregg G., Spanky, Perera, even yours truly), but still....
That's enough from me - I'll let others fill in the blanks. The results are already up on Mylaps here; kudos to DC Region T&S for getting them up so fast.
