Saturday
Portion of BOTI - Atco, NJ Cancelled Due to Rain
Day One of Round-3 of the Battle of the
Imports at Atco Raceway located in Atco, NJ was met with periods of rain mixed
with lightning storms that forced the cancellation of Saturday's qualifying
rounds for all classes.
However, the local forecast calls for clear and
sunny skies for Sunday. Qualifying will resume on Sunday morning with
two-rounds of qualifying followed by the remainder of the schedule which
includes eliminations, carshow and all stage activities.
"This wasn't a
typical 'rain-out', commented Frank Choi, Battle of the Imports. "There was
periods of heavy rain and winds which destroyed plenty of EZ-Ups and a freak
lightning storm that caused some minor electrical damage to the tower's
electronic components. Luckily, the folks at Atco Raceway are working non-stop
replacing timing equipment and computers."
Round-3 at Atco should
present some exciting action in Pro-FWD with Chris Rado's inaugural event with
the series. He is looking to be the first Pro-FWD competitor to break into the
6's. Gary Gardella (Howell, NJ) is looking to gain valueable points against
current points leader Ed Bergenholtz (Santa Ana, CA).
The event will
also feature a competitive carshow with over 100 awards available for imports,
sport compacts, late models domestics, trucks and SUV's. Fans have a chance to
interact with some of the industry's finest manufacturers such as Greddy
Performance, ACT Clutches, Exedy Racing Clutch, Impo Performance and much more.
The giant Scion "What Moves You" stage has plenty of activitied in store such
as go-go dancers, interactive games, live DJs, swimsuit contest and much more.
