A MAIN RACE REPORTS: (Planning to submit this to our sponsors)
Round 2 of the Alberta Touring Series was held in Edmonton, Alberta on April 15-17, 2016. The NASCAR Club hosted a great event with 117 entries across 6 classes. The focus of this series in its second year would be to have fun, keep rules to a minimum, save budget conscious racers some money with less travel and create a friendly provincial rivalry. The format for the weekend would be 4 qualifiers and triple mains for everyone.
In the Reedy TC Modified Class, TQ Wayne Mah (Awesomatix) would take A1 and A2 in dominating fashion, with Ryan Berry (Awesomatix) winning A3 to finish 2nd and Joe Levesque (Awesomatix) taking 3rd.
In the Schumacher Racing TC Stock Class with 35 entries, TQ Wayne Mah (Awesomatix) again took convincing wins in A1 and A2. But A3 would also be exciting to see who would be on the podium with Ryan Berry (Awesomatix) finishing just ahead of Joe Levesque (Awesomatix) taking a well-deserved 3rd.
In the Great Hobbies Tamiya Mini powered by Orca Class, TQ Ivan Chan and Walter “Mini King” Slany having won one main each took it to the A3, with Walter beating Ivan to the finish line by a few car lengths for the overall win. The battle for 3rd in A3 was also intense with Timbulb prevailing over his challengers to secure the final spot on the podium.
In the Boca Bearing 12th Scale Stock 13.5 Class, TQ Wayne Mah was at it again winning both A1 and A2. The battle for 2nd and 3rd was still to be decided between 5 racers in A3 with Ivan Chan prevailing in 2nd and Ryan Berry in 3rd overall.
In the Maclan Racing F1 Class, TQ Ian Brooks would win A1 and A2 in both very close battles over Ivan Chan. 3rd place would be on line for 4 different racers with Walter Slany prevailing in the closing laps that would secure the final spot on the podium.
