Fox would pass Leigh while working lap 15 of the 23-lap race. Fox, would hold her lead for the next 6 laps, but would fall back to second with three laps remaining in the race. Fox, however, did not back down. On the final lap, she would turn the fastest race lap and a set a new E-Prod lap record with a time of 1:23.420.

This is the third lap record that Fox holds for Summit Point.

Janoska’s dogged insistence to bring the car home in one piece, however, paid off. On lap 8, Janoska moved past the ailing car of Tristen Herbet and into fourth. “At that point, I was just hoping to pressure third and force an error, because I didn’t think I could out-brake him,” said Janoska. Hanging onto the tail of third place, the two managed to catch the second place ITB car and on the last lap, Janoska made the move into third.

Sunday’s race saw Janoska starting third. A first lap incident left the field jumbled and after the shuffle, Janoska emerged in third, again on the tail of Colburn. On lap 3, Janoska attempted to outbrake Colburn going into Rollercoaster, but realized that his inconsistant brakes were back. “I had him going into the corner, but the car wouldn’t woe and it didn’t stick,” said Janoska. As in the previous day’s race, Janoska hung onto Colburn, hoping to force an error.

On lap five, the opening was there and Janoska moved into second. “James went wide in Hog Pen and I just moved right and kept my foot in it,” said Janoska. Janoska managed to open a gap on Colburn. With a wounded car and no hope of catching first, Janoska’s goal for the the second half of the race was avoiding an unforced error. On the penultimate lap, Colburn had managed to close the distance, but Janoska used a slower car to hold up his rival and brought his Allsports Grand Prix CRX to the checkered flag in second place.

Burkhard immediately began hunting down the second-place MARRS-ITA of Bryan Pritt. Burkhard steadily closed the distance on Pritt. Burkhard, despite his fading brakes, ran his fastest laps in the second-half of the race but was unable to completely close the gap on second. Burkard managed to erase all but 1 second of the gap and, had the race been longer, would have been in a position to challenge Pritt.

Burkhard started Sunday’s race fifth in class. For much of the race he was involved in a ferocious four-way battle for second through fifth. Just past race mid-point, Burkhard advanced to fourth place, but lost considerable time when it took him several laps to move past an ITS Datsun. Overcoming this deficit, Burkhard managed to chase down the third-place Brian Price and moved into third place, and a podium position, on the last lap.

Burkhard had a tougher time in Sunday’s 40-mile feature race when she spent the race fighting an ill-handling car. During the fourth lap, Burkhard went off-course in turn 10 and lost considerable time. “We got aggressive on tire pressures to compensate for being down on power and maybe we were too aggressive,” said Burkhard.

Ginsberg would start Sunday’s 40-mile feature race from ninth on the ITA-grid. He would move up to eighth place by lap eight, but disaster struck while lapping a slower car. Ginsberg got into the marbles in turn eight and impacted the outside tire wall hard. Ginsberg was stoic about the incident, ” I didn’t do a great job of managing the situation. He wasn’t predictable but I had plenty of racing room and I goofed.”
