| Race Report by Ty Tessmann |
|
This past weekend we travelled to Columbus, Ohio to Sparks RC Raceway for the Factory Tracks Invitational race. The track was prepped very well, it was a really fun, flowing layout with a super smooth surface. It was very obvious that the track builder, Galen McCreary put a lot of attention into the track.
The race format was Reedy Race style, with a spec tire and spec sauce with no tire prep allowed. This race featured some of the top drivers in the midwest. Friday practice went really well but setup was a little bit tricky as the track would have been ready for a slick but we were running a treaded tire due to the tire rules.

| I felt my cars were really good and I was ready for racing on Saturday. We raced 4wd on Saturday, there were 5 heads up races with 1 drop allowed, I had 4 firsts and 1 second which put me in the lead for 4wd and the lead going into Sunday. Sunday was the 2wd race day, again my car was good, I had 1 second, 3 firsts and a 5th, which again would give me the lead in 2wd and I would finish 1st for the overall. |
