8/8/2012: “One More For Tim” – Mid-Week Twin-30s
Posted on August 11th, 2012 by ChrusherComix Studios
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 8th, 2012: To make up for a couple rain-dates we’ve lost and the fact that one of our regular racers is moving south for a while and may miss most of if not the rest of the year, we held a special mid-week Twin 30s night. Joe Sereno FINALLY did not break while leading the race to win the first 30-lapper. The second one saw the returning Randy Platt dominate most of the race until Matt Stevens caught him in traffic late. Now… Matt usually is unbeatable once he takes the lead, but with two laps to go, his brother Chris caught him sleeping on a restart to take his own 2nd feature win in three nights, and keeping hope alive in terms of keeping Matt within distance in the points race! As for the race descriptions, READ BELOW:

Joe barges into the lead with a sassy move in the Galletta’s #5!
Way to go, Joe! He FINALLY got into the lead and DIDN’T BREAK to pick up his 2nd career feature win, and his first of 2012!

8/8/2012: 30-LAP FEATURE #4 (12-KARTS):
|
Randy Bobandi Platt attempted to make the second or third year in a row where he comes back and wins a feature race after a self-imposed hiatus away from the sport. The Bobandinator dispatched a handful of competitors early and appeared to be on his way to a decisive victory.
Until Matt Stevens hunted him down and snuck underneath him in traffic. What… wait… no… c’mon now… no way… Matt is going to win…. AGAIN?!
Wait… WHAT!? Chris Stevens comes up through the field after an early-race spinout in his Galletta’s/Chrusher.com #8 and catches Matt sleeping on a late-race restart! He pulls aloing side his nearly-unbeatable lil’ brother and…
…executes an improbable pass with two laps to go! Chris pulled it off, the rare feat of passing Matt for a win. It does NOT happen very often, so take a good look. Chris gets a little revenge for Matt catching him sleeping in the season opener 6/17/2012 show.
FINISH: Pos. | Driver (Karts driven) | 2012 Wins
