You did well on Thursday night Rocky. Soon you'll be giving the veterans some pressure!
I forgot to mention in the race report another landmark set by Luke B. He did the almost-impossible and again lowered the overall track record from his previous 3.947 sec down to 3.859 sec! That's almost one-tenth quicker. Congratulations Luke and kudos to Ramesh for building a car capable of such a stunning time.

Great night of racing at FRC as usual (at least for the portion of it that I was there for). Was nice to see such a healthy turnout of drivers. Congrats to all the winners, especially to Rocky on his first (joint with Alex) victory at FRC in Group N Porsche. Congrats to all the other winners as well . Special congrats to Luke B. on that stunning 3.859 sec. lap time.
Looking forward to the next event.
Steve

I didn't do very well at this
milestone racing event but all the same had an overall BLAST
I was correct though, estimating
10+ drivers at this FRC 200th. Event
Here's in a
nutshell some highlighted points of the night ~ for this
big number racing event @ FRC
- • A grand turnout of 9 regular drivers plus in the new Group-N class 4
• AM, GT & LMP classes: Almost all cars doing impressive 4 second lap times
• Even though how Steve's slightly off the pace LMP car pulling off a 3rd. place in 1 of the 3 races
• Plus, cant forget how a DTP was called on the GULF LMP car
• A NEW FRC BLT Record - again set with a LMP car: 3.859 seconds
• Arden's pole in AM with his white lighting No.7 F1 (rear axle set-up) Camaro and LMP win
• Strange how my Camaro in AM Q/Time did a 4.747 sec. even though a magnet was covering/blocking the chip sensor
• Luke B. with his normal racing dominance plus again setting the new BLT record
• Gordon's racing consistency for 39 points splitting the dynamic duo (Luke B. & Ramesh) 47 and 33 points respectively
• Marlon's marshaling incident in AM class - A white car getting airborne, hitting straight to face plus another on his fingers at the same time
• Had a great LOL because how he looked but its not good laughing at a person getting hurt because I collected LMP car to fingers right after
• Last but not least - the friendly & competitive racing done in the Group-N class
Here's some more info for persons not being around at the time - A decision was made by Ramesh, Gordon and myself servicing 18 cars evenly with the
PC, LS & FTC classes respectively for the next upcoming event -
MIXED IROC GT in 2 weeks time

Great synopsis there Luke. You seem to have covered all the main highlights. A pity your AM car was not recording laps for whatever reason.
