Sunday Onroad Report
Jr TA now known as Novice TA make more then 14 laps and your in to the big leauge
After Justin setting TQ for the day with a nice run the main started out with Baby braking through some first corners crashes to take the lead and held onto it till Spidey finally started puting down some clean laps allowing him to catch up and pass Baby in the closing lap of the race. Justin faded to 3rd a lap off the leaders after being caught up in the crashes at the start.
TA
Myron started from the back of the pack after a false start from him wiped out his TQ starting position. So after some smart working through traffic Myron worked his way pass Darryl and Tim Moore to take the lead on lap 3 and never look back. The real battles were for 2nd/3rd and 4 on back as Tim and Darryl traded off the 2nd place spot back and forth for the whole 8 minutes till some late lap mistakes gave Darryl a clear lead over Tim for 2nd. The battle for 4th was at a time a 4 way battle on the same lap. but Dan in his first TA race indoor took it home after having some mechanical problems in the heats.
TC 13.5 "B"
Tim Moore took a 2nd place qualifing position to the lead at the start till some mid race tangles gave it to Danny D. Will Hillis putting down some good laps after a couple tangles at the start and was working his way back up but a mid race wreck broke his Xray taking him out of the race.
TC 13.5 "A"
Eric Anderson taking the TQ and Win after a late race mistake almost handing it to Robert Dirla. The battle in this race was for second also after Robert pushed wide in the infield turns and Darryl was ready to pounce and take the second position till a mid race tap on the lolipop costing him the position. Robert made the inside move and pulled the trigger into the next couple of pipe taps and finally settled into second till the end of the race.
17.5 12th scale
Robert Dirla resetting his TQ position in the third round with just a slightly better time, took the lead for the first couple laps till some bobbles allowed a fast charging Chris Cooper into the lead. A couple laps latter a 13.5 running Eric Anderson who threw down for the main to get some track time for next weeks US Indoor Champs in Cleveland Ohio took the lead in the race but it was sort of like IMSA he was in a different class. So the battle for 17.5 win was between Chris Cooper and Robert Dirla. about 1/3 of the way in Robert was able to regain class lead through a massive pipe pop from Chris and even though Chris was matching Robert Lap for lap even pulling off fastest lap of the class for the main. He was not able to summount the time he had lost to that crash allowing Robert to take the class win.
