SCCA: Soggy start to second day of Majors action at Texas World Speedway - Racer
On Sunday, competitors awoke to extremely wet conditions caused by overnight rain storms. The same weather system caused flash floods in some parts of central Texas, but the conditions for Round Six of the SCCA U. S. Majors Tour Mid-States Conference at Texas World Speedway were only enough to force drivers to change their plan of... Group one, Spec Miata, had to deal with the most challenging conditions as the track was extremely slilck. When race group two took to the track, a dry line was beginning to form at many places on the 15-turn, 2. 9-mile circuit, while many other parts of the course still remained treacherous. The event also concluded the final chapter of SCCA national-level competition at Texas World Speedway. Michael Ross, of Frisco, Texas, shortened Spec Miata race in his No. 72 X-Factor Racing/TPR Consulting MPR Co Mazda Miata. In the Spec Racer Ford Gen3 battle Gary Glanger, of Dallas, utilized some late race heroics to seal the class win on Sunday. As the laps began to tick down in the 14-lap feature, Glanger was in the tire tracks of then leader Kevin Bosien. Touring 3 featured another close battle for the lead between eventual race winner Bob Schader, of Lafayette, Colo. Source: www.racer.com
