Default East Coast Supercharging LS/LT challenge series race 1 is in the books.

We had a great showing for the first event! I heard almost 50 tech cards sold.

Congrats to the class winners!
I don’t know all the names, but I’m sure Chris or Doug can chime in with who turned on the last win light in each class.

Many thanks to East Coast Supercharging for bringing this series to Atco Raceway. Thanks to Atco for giving us a great place to race.

Also, huge thanks to the class sponsors.
American Racing Headers 11.50 index
Mantic Clutch 10.00 index
Paxton Superchargers 8.50 index

and, of course, East Coast Supercharging brackets class.

Please remember these sponsors and consider using their products for your performance upgrades!

Next event is June 15!

Congrats to Anthony Cupolo winner of the 10.0 index race, Tommy Michaelkowski runner up in the 10.0 index race, Shay La Scala runner up in the 11.50 index race, and Steve Pistilli winner of the bracket race and Shay La Scala runner up in the bracket race.

Looking forward to the next race on June 15th.

Waiting for my computer to get back from torqhead, Then break the motor in, then have it tuned by Doug. Also saw conflicting things whether our "old" LTx's were legal for the class. Thought Doug said yes, but someone else said no. Talked to someone that was there and said you were running. Long drive for a maybe.... Once I know for sure I'd like to come down to run once the cars ready.

As I said earlier, we never specified "late model LT engine", we just made the rules what they are so the fields do not get dominated by big tire cars etc, pushing out our street cars. Just trying to keep it the original ECS challenge vibe. Atco certainly doesn't, mind if you want to buy a tech card and I know we don't either. Let's race!!
