It was a great day of ASRA stock/super stock racing in memory of Vic. It was great to see Vic's widow Judy at the race and her kind words for ASRA were appreciated greatly. We had at least 3 heads-up races, some surprises , and a group photo that is outstanding. There were great races and many stayed till' the final as the day unfolded. I believe we had 46 cars
The semi finals saw one surprise as Tim Gray was still in with Eric Merryfield's 13 sec Gremlin. Tim had never driven the car before and only had 1 time trial. In a close race he was defeated by Ethan Sutherland's SS/GT Malibu. TJ Boucher singled in the semis. It should be noted that all 3 semifinalists were second generation racers and their Dad's had been knocked out earlier in the race. The final went TJ's way, and it was an emotional race and winners circle as Vic was an integral part of the Boucher family and Boucher's Racing Engines .
Donations poured in for this race with the winners take at $7250. Payouts went back to include 2nd round losers. It was truly a great day, I lost early but stayed till the end and really enjoyed all the great racing.
Saturdays race did get rained out, and is rescheduled for August 17th. The group photo is on the ASRA website
