SCCA Fontana ProSolo Round 1 - Evos podium finish
At the first event of the ProSolo 9 race series, Evos had podium finishes.
In Street Modified Navid Kahangi came in a close second to the SM National Champion Vic Sias in his monster M3 by only .362 secs. Navid's engine management wasn't fully tuned for his new motor configuration.
I won Street Touring Ultra over past National Champion Steve O'blenes driving a M3, by .380 secs. Steve was the STU San Diego National Tour winner the week before.
I had around .56x reaction times with 1.8xx 60 fts, and Navid had 1.6xx 60 ft times.

Congrats on your win Richard!
It was definitely an interesting weekend. We just put a new block, head, intake manifold, cams, injectors and a bunch of other things in the car on Thursday and did not get a chance to tune the car. The engine felt strong anyway, so we headed down to the pro anyway with our fingures crossed
.
It turned out we ended up with the fastest door-banger time (prepared, SP and SM2 included) minus Vic's last run. Vic is a good friend of mine, but he did not deserve 2 re-runs on the left side
. One was a timing problem but the other one should not have been a re-run. I only have myself to blame though. If I was clean on my best run on the left, it wouldn't have mattered. Oh well, I got him on the right.
All and all, I'm really pleased with the car's first showing with the new engine. I'd like to thank Mike Warfield of Gruppe-s for building the bottom end for this engine and get it done in time to make the pro. I can't wait to tune this engine and see what it can do.

Always good seeing you again. I didn't want to spill the beans about your new motor mods
I heard you had the FTD on Sat. I hope we can both do well at the Atwater Pro too.
