Better late than never - both for the race and my reporting .In my defense the Internet service was just awful - and talk about frustrating - at times if would come on and let me do several paragraphs and them go off without posting .On top of all that I was kept pretty busy this past weekend so here we are .

Anyway congrats go out to Steve Calabro for his win in Stock as it wasn't a gimme and he earned it with solid driving .His Corvette worked like a champ all weekend .And we can't forget his owner Joe Fasano who worked hard to prepare a car that has won this event the last two years - well done gentlemen . And let us not forget runner-up Tom O'Laughlin was drove great all day and just came up a little short in the final .

And then we have SuperStock winner Brian Van Popel who actually won this race when he won the semi-final .Because of the third semi-finalist ( Gary Richard ) broke his car the round before and could make the call all VP had to do was break the beam and it made him a winner .Congrats to Brian and his crew chief and helper Lee Zane ( yes, that Lee Zane ) .And again I shouldn't forget James Antoinette who drive his GrandAm super all day to a RU finish . Great job fellas ............
