Elimination Challenge Series Championship
August 22, 2003 - Fast Fridays, Auburn

I managed to catch most of the event, arriving late, after a long business trip.

Apparently there was heavy rain on Thursday and Friday morning, but the track looked fine, although a bit shy of dirt and rather dry towards the end.

As usual, the racing was great. The change in weather diminished the size of the crowd.

Next week is the Track Championship and Youth National Championship. This will be a marathon event, with somewhere over 50 races in 3 hours.

Fast Fridays must be congratulated for the organization involved, getting one race out as the previous one comes in, with zero time in between, plus keeping the track maintained. I find it a challenge to record results in the program. The British league could learn a lesson here!
