Another strong finish for Tony Rolfson in the Heat and the Main puts him at the top of the points lead(167) over Mike Davila(165) who had the points lead for the first 2 weeks of the 8 race Fall League series. Josh Lambeth took home a 2nd Place finish and a kartload of points to have him sit 4th overall with 162 points and Chaz Baca Jr (163) secured the 3rd spot on the podium even though getting Black Flagged early in the Main for sending Steve Lattanzi into the tire barriers in turn 1 on Track 1 c/c/w. Lattanzi thought his night was going to be unlike the previous week's Main where he went for an airborne excursion on Track 2 c/w. Certainly not the start to a successful season with a first race miss and a 5th place finish in the "B" Main and now a 12th place finish in the "A" Main. Sponsors AARP and Grecian Formula are concerned about their aged kart racer being able to continue to climb from the wreckage of what once was a great kart racing career. Has Lattanzi peaked at 55 and will he be able to pull off a win or two before rigormortis sets in? Time will tell. Congratulations to Tony Rolfson for the win and who continues to show up with an entourage of boistrous fans egging him on. Seems to be working. I wonder what he pays them to annoy the rest of us. Does he pay by the scream or by the amount of lettering on their faces and articles of clothing.
"B" Main was a runaway affair for Logan Swane who won it handily over Keith Sears and moved on up to finish 11th in the "A" Main.
26 league regulars set their sites on a check mark in the win category but as we all know there can be only 1 first place finisher and that went to Tony Rolfson on this night of Track 1 c/c/w action. See you all next week for another chapter in the 2011 Fall League Series at Octane Raceway.
