Report by Ari Bakla
Proline Challenge - Canberra
Always fun running in ACT but it was freezing!! -4 Sunday morning and didn’t get much warmer through the day… Yes that’s ice on the track and on the cars!
XRAY XB8 was working perfect all weekend, FX Engines didn’t miss a beat, running on the Control Tyre Proline Blockade S3 Tyres. 66 Entries for the single day race was almost maximum capacity to be able to finish with some sunlight. The club ran the event like clockwork and was finished by 4:30pm and some sunlight left.
