Parma Notes:
16 drivers in attendance for IROC night. Thank You to everyone who came out and supported us, A truly awesome evening of racing. If you have not attended an IROC race yet, Check it out. No controllers or cars are needed. Randy has pre-selected IROC sets from veteran racers for use during the season. The sets selected have been matched to the tracks for use. This creates a true racers experience as the IROC sets make it a challenging driver raced event. New for 2021, Randy is providing controllers for use at all IROC events. The controllers stay at the track, at each lane and are used by every racer. Congrats to Jordan Hess & David Foreman for winning their 1st segment wins on the Aurora Tub on Tuesday. There was some interesting Parma Controller use on Tuesday, I think several racers are wondering where the Blue Parma Controller went after Randy raced. The look on Hiram’s face after the segment was priceless . Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and Safe Holiday
