tsra race #5 was pretty doggone good!!! we didn't have a great turn-out but the G15 continues to get better & better!!! we messed around for awhile until our host david key got his car ready as he hadn't intended to race but w/o him there wouldn't have been a race. while it was a gully washer outside-or frog strangler- if you prefer, it was pleasantly cool inside & kurt geissler edged out david key for the nail biting 4 foot win! in the hillbilly race, shelby won the race w/ an impressive 602 laps. w/ oldtimer Keith Jarvis back from a long layoff & an impressive 2nd place finish. In the c-12 race, the big boys came to compete!!! Even archie king took a stab at it & was very fast running a motor mike matero loaned him. shelby stunned the qualifying session by turning a 1.88 on race power!!! in fact a couple of guys were under 1.9 in qualifying- on race power too!!! The race was a dandy w/ shelby leading all the way i think but i pushed him pretty hard. he won the race & i don't have the sheets or i'd show it all. the track was much better in the lead-on than last race for me but you need a smooth,fast car! if anything is flawed,trouble will follow. that's about it. i wish more people had come as it's a fine track & facility. we all agreed it was a good race & fun. what more do you want? shelby w/ 602 was a cookin'!!! he ran his Frobel C12 car to a record total of 578 laps to take the win in C12's also. oh yeah, he won concours in both classes also!
