"Live From" Galot- CCRA

Ken Miele · 04-11-2025, 01:27 PM

Hey guys, we are back and heading into Galot Motorsport Park with the Carolina Class Racer Association. Its a double for this weekend and the weather looks good, so if you are in the area you might want to make this race. Galot is great track and the CCRA always puts on a good show. I will do my normal in the pits and photos. Racing start tomorrow, a great warm up for anyone going to Charlotte in 2 weeks.

Hey guys, it is Saturday and we just finished up our first time shot. No qualifying at this race. Weather is in the mid 50's but the track is in great shape. Internet is slow here, bit I will have a video in the lanes and photos later today. Car count is very good, last I checked we had 63.

Good morning all, we did not get to finish yesterdays race. Oil downs and the cold weather kept us from getting the first race done. We got one round in and we will finish today. The race that was schedule for today will be made up sometime in May.

Its a chilly morning with temps in the mid 40's as of 8:45. It should warm up to the mid 60's with plenty of welcomed sunshine. Start time for our 2nd round should be around 10:30.

More phots from yesterday, and I will have a "In the Lanes" video coming up shortly.

Hey guys, a few more photos. I lost second round, packing up and heading home. Even with the loss of one race, I had a good time. CCRA has a good program, I will be hitting a few more. Association races are low key and lots of fun, looking forward to the next one. Next stop, Charlette in two weeks, see you all then.

I haven't had the pleasure of hitting a ton of CCRA races myself but I've never had a bad time at one. Thank you Ken for shining some more light on this excellent series!

Hi Ken, Thank you for being at the Galot CCRA event. Thank you also for giving me a head start on our 1st round elimination run

I'm sorry that I ended it with a redlight, but we both got a good time run out of it! You show pictures of all the cars, but I don't see one of your awesome Mustang. Good luck at Charlotte.

Good times, looking forward to the next one.
