Stock/SuperStock Combo March 18-20 LVMS - Page 5

This has been fun just to hang out with fellow racers. The MATLV folks mostly Sally parked us all together and up near the staging lanes. I am next to the PMR pits where yesterday they were cooking what looked like a half a cow. Best I can tell you it smelled great all day cooking and was well worth the wait. The bench racing during the Friday night party was second too none.

Did Mark Kirby ever show up? I don't see him on any of the sheets and he was one of the promoters of this deal.

Mark Kirby is there. He just ran on Tony Mandellas FB live this morning.

Well we did it!!!!! A $10,000 Stk/Ss combo pulled off by the greatest racers in the West, the best track in the country, and the best friend to the racers as a whole in PMR Race Cars.

Phil, Tony and Phil Mandella Jr. put this thing together in a ridiculously short period of time, pulled all the sponsors together who generously contributed product and dollars to make it such a success, and negotiated just the right schedule to get the whole thing done in one day. The racing was hot, the food was plentiful, and the fellowship was a welcome alternative to the stress of a national event.

Justin Lamb was.......JUSTIN LAMB!!!! What a machine. The last couple rounds were absolute nail biters and the final did not disappoint. Evan Kowalski totally represented with his runner up against Justin.

Thanks go to PMR, California Car Cover, Meziere, and all the other sponsors that supported this race. There were even racers who couldn't make the race but donated their entry to one of the rounds just to sweeten the pot. Thanks to Jeff Lee and Artisan Real Estate Group in Phoenix for the generous contribution.

I'm dealing with the worst back ache of my life and still had a blast.

Thanks to all!

Saw some great live FB coverage, I was on the west coast last week and started to call my buddy GTX John to use one of his fleet for the event but logistics were too complicated. Running at Vegas is definitely on my bucket list. Kudos to everyone who made this event happen, would be great to see it a regular feature of the MATS.

I didn't take many pictures, but here's round three.

Is there any one place where all the rounds results are posted?

Thanks,

I found a video that has second round highlights. Paul Wong had the second round bye in the beginning.
