Default Tony Cupolo Wins ECS CC Event 8 7/14

We talk generation all the time .....how about 2nd generation or even three generations!!!!

Tony Cupolo won his first Corvette Challenge event today in the 2nd Gen Corvette, with no hood no less but an even bigger feat did it with his dad, Sal and son, Anthony, arguably the happiest kid at the track!!

Congrats Tony and the great day, second in a row and the win in your first final.

John Trescott, bridesmaid again...Sorry John.

Tony..
Nice to meet you...
Savor the victory!

to John Trescott too, who schooled me in the semi finals.

The MASTER goes .018 & runs dead on to blow away my nice package, 021 & .03 over....


Getting an event win is this series is EXTREMELY difficult!

Congrats again to Tony & John!
