The event takes place during the popular 88th Annual Loudon Classic motorcycle event, the longest running motorcycle event in North America. The 1.6 mile road course features 12 difficult corners, with mostly left turns with a few hard right handers. It is famous for the legendary bowl, which is one of the most exciting turns in all of road racing.

Looking back on the season opener win at Unity Raceway. “The day went pretty smooth. We unloaded from the trailer, put our new tires on. It was pretty fast all day long, started on the outside pole in the heat. Took the lead on lap one, led every lap, and started on the pole for the feature.”

As the green flag flew for the 1st late model race of the season, the “X” car had the lead, and led about 95 laps of the 111. Leading the most important lap, and taking the checkered flag to win the 1st race of the season.
