Andrew Carlson at TORC: The Chicagoland Slam

Andrew Carlson - 151



  • Carlson started Round-6 in 9th place and made his way up to 4th where he battled with points leader Kyle Hart for a podium position 
  • The top 4 drivers ran extremely close lap times, with Carlson four-tenths of a second off of third place
  • Carson came across the finish line in 4th, narrowly missing his first podium finish

  • The team is heading straight to Crandon, Wisconsin and looking forward to carrying our momentum from Chicago to the Big House!





  • Travis Dinsmore at TORC: The Chicagoland Slam

    Travis Dinsmore - 43 

    Day 1:
    Dinsmore was fast in the practice and qualifying rounds and was planning on the track condition to change in favor of his set up. However a last minute change due to dust the officials ripped up the track putting us at a disadvantage because of the tight lines.
     

    Day 2:
    Dinsmore made a few changes in the practice round and made his truck work with the tight rough track. Dinsmore'
    s setup was exactly where he needed it to be and he was a contender for the win. Unfortunately, due to a mechanical issue Dinsmore had to retire early.

    We look forward to Crandon and know we now have the right set up for a win.

    We're having a great time at the Chicagoland Slam, watching Atturo Drivers Travis Dinsmore and Andrew Carlson tearing up the track. Here are some of the highlights from last night's Round 5 of races:

    Travis Dinsmore-43
    • Qualified 5th -qualifying was a bit rough with track conditions and a lot of blue groove going into the corners.
    •  Truck was fast and placed 4th
    • Travis said “track condition didn’t develop to how we predicted and we just missed the podium because of that”


    Andrew Carlson-151
    • Rookie Andrew Carlson gaining speed and experience each time he’s on the track
    • Finished 7th — Less than half a second off from podium finish
    • Experienced mechanical issue with plug wire half way through the race, battled to maintain position (relegated him to 7 cylinders)


    Looking forward to round 6 tonight and expecting big things from 43 and 151!
