Good job, I haven’t watched this race yet, but I’ve seen the TC/TCB race and it was awesome!! It was such good fighting and close finishes. Not to mention that Miller is an awesome track. It makes me wonder, why no Sonic, or even Cruze racing?? Seriously???
There is a Cruze touring car racing team. And it’s very, very, very good.
Johnney O is an awesome racer, a great guy and an honorary Canadian EHH !!
All the best to he and Andy and to Mike West in their quest for a World Challenge Championship this summer ! Some of the best road racing in North America ! Who needs V8’s from Australia ! If these guys are anywhere near you this summer you need to go see them race !
I was talking about this Series. There is no Cruze in the TC class, and no Sonic in TCB
