Race Report 2011 - West Texas Region Events #6 and #7


Date: July 17, 2011
Venue: Kimbrough Stadium, Canyon, TX
Event #6 Results: 1st in Class (3), 1st Overall (9), Top Time of the Day
Event #7 Results: 1st in Class (3), 1st Overall (9), Top Time of the Day

Another double event at Kimbrough Stadium in Canyon, TX. The course was excessively tight. So tight that I never shifted the car into 2nd gear on either course. I know Kimbrough Stadium is a small venue, but there is enough room to design a course that flows better than this one did.

Despite the very challenging course design, I was able to win my class, take 1st place Overall, and get Top Time of the Day at each of the two events. I also used my GoPro Hero HD camera to capture my fastest run from each event (AM and PM).

Thanks to Chris Romero for allowing me to co-drive his Honda S2000, and also thanks to Jay Messenger of Messenger Racing for paying for my entry fee. Thanks guys!
