After qualifying 12th, Andrew drove to a good 5th place finish at the 3rd round of the MX-5 Cup series at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.
The race went caution free and while we still did not have the car handling great is was consistent and after a great start that showed Andrew moving up to 7th place, he then drove past a couple more competitors befroe settling into 5th at about the halfway mark.
Team MER teamate Jason Saini won for his second win in the 3 races ran so far in the 8 race series.
The weekend was not without drama however as just as the final practice started on Friday, Andrew’s engine expired and we needed to put in a spare overnight.
The car is in great shape and we are looking forward to visiting a track that Andrew has raced on before as we travel to Portland, OR for round 4 in 3 weeks.
Congratulations on your win. I knew itt wouldn’t take long. Sorry I couldn’t make it I was driving for Ted at South Sound we ended upin fifth placeand moved upin the points. Let me Know if I can help in any way . Thank You again for your hospitality at the Laguna race. Clint
