TORC: Andrew Carlson in Sturgis
Andrew Carlson Race Recap:
• The wide-open terrain at the Legendary Buffalo Chip in Sturgis, SD was a nice break from the Bull-Pen like tracks Andrew had been getting accustomed to this season, and allowed for higher speeds and more exciting racing for the fans and racers alike
• Carlson once again found himself towards the back of the pack both days in his qualifying positions, but broke away Wednesday afternoon during round 12 and grabbed another 4th place finish, his third of the season
• With more top-5 finishes and confidence each time he’s on the track, a podium finish is looking inevitable as 151 looks forward to the final two races in Bark River, MI and Crandon, WI
TORC: Dinsmore in Sturgis
Travis Dinsmore Race Recap:
We made the long haul to Sturgis hoping to walk away with podium finishes, but were defeated by the track. With an issue during qualifying, we qualified 7th and had to start back in the 4th row. Track conditions were less than favorable with almost no visibility. Made it difficult to work through the pack and just after the mandatory caution our truck was hit in the right rear by a truck coming back on the track causing a flat forcing us to finish the race on three wheels. Hoping to recover from Tuesday we started on the front row with high expectations. Heading into the second turn another truck ran into the back and forced us off the track hitting debris at the side of the track breaking the steering assist. Now at the back of the pack with no power steering we limped to the finish to salvage points. We maintained our overall points standing but lost valuable ground on the leaders. We are looking forward to the wide open track at bark river to stretch our legs and take two more wins.
