Youth Shines at Crane Cams V8 StockCar @ Sebring
Dillon Machavern, Cameron Lawrence & Bobby Kennedy put in sterling efforts at Sebring this past weekend. The V8 series was running with the Central Florida Region SCCA at their Cabin Fever Cure event.
Dillon ran away with the V8 GT-1 and overall wins in race 1 & 2 cutting consistent laps at 2:06 in the Heritage Motorsports, Riggins Engineering Ford Falcon. Jon "Chevy" Leavy gamely gave chase and cut some of his fastest laps ever at Sebring but his 2:09 second laps would not keep pace with the fleeing Machavern.
Bobby Kennedy picked up a GTA win in race one in dad Squeak's Bemco Fabrication Ford Taurus beating former champ Randy Walker and his Howe Camaro. Kennedy also led race two for most of race two before breaking a drive shaft on lap six.
Cameron Lawrence brought out his familiar Regal Boats Impala, now running in the GT2 class. Lawrence was unable to make qualifying and started shotgun on the field.
Cameron had a fine drive through a forty car field to come home second in class to the quick Grand Am spec RX8 of Keith Goldin.
Lawrence got the class win in race 2, sunday afternoon over Phil Lasco in a Panoz and Goldin.
Along with Alpharetta, Georgia's Nick Hazelwood, the Crane Cams V8 StockCar Series undoubtedly has four of the quickest young "big bore" racers in the country. At twenty years old Lawrence is the oldest of the group, with sixteen year old Hazelwood the youngest.
