6-30-2022 Wisconsin International Raceway
The season rolls on and our luck isn't getting any better.
Mother nature doused the track as practice began, so we
dried the track off and lined up by points.
Grant wheeled the GT17 machine to a runner up finish
in the dash.
In the feature, we made contact and spun and a car behind
us had no place to go a hit the rear end.
Grant restated in the back and came back to finish 8th.
Sadly, we will miss a week or 2 as we completely take
the car apart to replace the rear stub.
See you soon!

Back to WIR for some FRRC action as we continue
our trek to a title.

a 4th in the fast dash.
In the feature, Grant was charging to the front and got into
the 2 car of Lowell Bennett in turn 4 and "Tapped Out"
meaning he took responsibility for the caution, and the 2
got his spot back while the 17 went to the rear.
Grant charged back to a 6th place finish, and sits 6th in
points, 58 behind the leader Dalton Zehr.

weekend.
Happy Fathers day to all the Dads!
