T.C. MOTORSPORTS MAKES THE DEADLINE AND HEADS TO PORTLAND.
KENT, WA- On the heals of a great race weekend at Seattle International Raceway, Seattle based T.C. Motorsports heads out of state to the challenging road course at Portland International Raceway in Portland, OR.
The team faced missing this weekend's race after a low oil pressure problem threatened a major engine problem. Removal and disassembly of the engine revealed a small O-ring that was damaged, causing the low oil pressure symptom. After reassembly and installation, testing indicates all systems are a go for race this weekend.
If you are in the Portland area, stop in and say hi. Team headquarters will be in the wooded area in the west pits. Carlo will be driving in Race Group 5 running ITA and Taryn will be running NCW on Saturday and upgrading her license to Area status on Sunday. At this time she will run Group 2 in Pro-7 class.
Race schedule:
Saturday:
Taryn 11:40-11:55 practice, 4:23-4:53 Race
Carlo 10:32-10:48 practice, 3:30-3:36 qualifying
