Five drivers took up the challenge of running our Porsche Cup and Modified Production classes on an evening which started off threatening rain. Thankfully the rain held off allowing for some close and enjoyable racing. In PC qualifying Arden did better than everyone else to take pole 57-hundredths of a second from second qualifier Ramesh. Luke B. did his usual magic and produced a record-breaking time of 4.955 sec in MP, closely followed by dad Ramesh at 4.959.
Three drivers shared the wins in PC. Racing was extremely close and in one race 1st and 2nd place were separated by 2-thousands of a second (0.002 sec) after 25 laps of racing, an all-time record at FRC.
In MP, Luke almost totally dominated, winning four of the five races. Between his and Ramesh's extremely quick Porsche Boxsters, everyone else had a hard time trying to close in to the front of the pack.
New Lap Records
- LMP - 4.955 sec (Luke B., Scalextric Porsche Boxster)
Congratulations to the winners.
