Right after the Challenge Car Race, a Mini Cooper Stock at the same track - a good way to vary the race events that mostly use the American cars for the racing. And the difference was very clear! Mini Coopers, that are so slow (comparing with a regular racing car), have revealed the ability of drivers to handle the slower speed.
Free Demos were allowed to race on too! So even those who's short on money or didn't want to clutter up their inventory could race. What's interesting, Eagle was the only one who had the custom painting of his Cooper, with his own number - 22. Everyone else were #7.
Since it's not a regular race (even wasn't mentioned in a schedule notecard), I did not expect too many people there. But there was!
And never without a competition, even on slow cars! Sharon and Grosmanteau took the leadership at the very start with BanningBairde and MidnightRambler at the 3rd place. While BanningBairde was losing positions, Grosmanteau didn't let Sharon go too far away from him (less than 1 second gap) and has been rewarded with the stable 1st place at the lap 9 where Sharon apparently made a little mistake that let him go through. 2 laps after, MidnightRambler fell behind and Eagle and badguy began their fight for the 3rd place.
Wonder how did they end? Time to move to the statistics!
