Default ECS CC Results...Farley Wins, Young Wins, new points leaders!!

Rob Farley over Ralph Savarese in the Corvette Challenge final today. Chris Young over David Shen in the Pro 10 Double Index. Congrats!!!!
More to come.

In the East Cost Supercharging Corvette Challenge we had our highest entry count of the year, 56 topping previous high fo 53 for the year. Savarese was in the Panuzzomobile again and Farly in the Easter egg. Tight final (I have video) but Farley takes his first win since 2007!

Savarese's runner up moves him into first place in the points.

In the Cartek Racing Pro 10 Double Index we had 9 entries again with 5 in 10.0 and 4. 10.50. Chris Young got another flat and borrowed Mark Shaw's house sized tires (pics and video coming) and took them to the win over David Shen who cut a tire in the final a bit of a wild ride (video coming). His runnerup is enough to put in him first place of the Pro 10 DI

Here is one to play with......our final featured Three time champ Ralph Saverse and two-time champ Rob Farley.

How many combined finals have these two drivers appeared in (not facing each other just individually)?

Just got out of the shower... Whewwww it was HOT today.. and we had some HOT racing...

Rob... great job!! Kid... what can I say but not bad for a "KID" LOL And Ralphie...... you do as well as Jeanne in "MY" car.. but you sure as hell don't look 1/4 as good doing it

I may as well admit I'm looking for a driver next yr...must have Pro Stock experience.. Dave Connolly comes to mind.. as he is out of a ride as of now...

But Jeanne is still # 1 on the list....


As for me it was things as usual Dave T kicked my Azzz ... so what else is new...

But I can GAR-UN-TEE a win for me if I get to race him 10 more times.... (I THINK) no (I hope) can u say I choke or what ????

Congrats to you both Rob and Chris

And to the runner-ups too.

I wish I could have been there to watch the action. We got rained out here in Palm Beach. No chance to run the Hertz rental Vette

Even though the trans was super hot, It was working great.
After leaving the track, I dropped the Easter Egg off at ECS to get a make over. My next race will be after the NMCA race in NC.
