Round 3 Auto Club Speeeeeeedway!

Fontana Nissan Racing made the couple mile trek to our home track, Auto Club Speedway to compete in Round 3 of the Redline Track Events Season!

Notice anything different? The GT-R has gone from stealth black to sporting the identical livery of the 350Z!  Thanks to Michael and the boys at All Digital Ink the GT-R was transformed into the twin of the 350Z in record time.

With Mike Cronin at the wheel, the Z was looking fast during all practice sessions Saturday. 

The new Team Look!

Before qualifying Mike Cronin experienced a problem with the fuel pump, resulting in no qualifying time.  He was relegated to the back of the pack for the Super Session Race which sets the upcoming Battles.

Cort Wagner was able to qualify a strong 4th place with a blistering time of 1:41.702!

The Super Session got off to a great start, with Mike clawing his way toward the front and Cort holding onto 4th. Mike and Paul Brown had an epic battle with Mike just beating Paul to the finish line to secure 2nd place!

Unfortunately, just as the first Battle started, the electrons in the 350Z went on strike and Mike was done for the day.  Cort first battled Joey Scarallo and was dispatched to the Consolation bracket by the GTO.

After a bye against the broken Mini Cooper of Dez Ballard, Cort was set to battle the improving Lars Wolf in the next bracket. 

The two seesawed back and forth, to the delight of the crowd!  Lars was able to just take Cort at the line, moving on and sending Cort to the sidelines.

Fontana Nissan Racing now sits 2nd and 4th in the Championship Points Standing for the Pro Track Challenge.  Next up, Willow Springs Raceway and the track Mike has a zillion miles on!

Also new this race was the debut of Scott VanderHeide running MotoIQ PTCC in his Nissan Race Shop.com Sentra and Kerryann De La Cruz in her R35 GTR competing in the Pro Time Attack Modified Class.

Unfortunately Scott experienced fuel starvation all weekend and chalked this one up to “Getting it Sorted Out” ! 

Kerryann’s debut was also a shake down and she is getting a few items sorted as well.  She finished 1st in the Modified AWD class!

Aaron Singh ran very well in his Nissan, taking 1st place in the hotly contested Modified RWD class! Congratulations to him!

Stay tuned for information about the upcoming airing of the Circuit Battles TV show and make sure to attend the next event, July 2-3 at Willow Springs!

See you there!
