Stop me if you've read this before.
Mike Fitzlaff winning the F1 and LMP events at an ISF event.
That is exactly what happened again, for the third time this season, at the Maxim Grand Prix at Southshore Speedway.
The largest field of the season kept Fitzlaff honest by leading at several points in both the heats and final races, however Fitzlaff again had the speed to pull away from his rivals. Fitzlaff's constat winning over the last three years have crowned him the distinction of the nickname "Michael Fitzmacher" as a spin on Michael Schumacher and following John Shea being called "Sheamacher" during his period of dominance. This is to take nothing away from Fitzlaff as he is having a dominate season after suffering massive foot injuries last year.
Fitzmacher couldn't quite pull off the threepeate as the GTP event was won by Everet Kamikawa.
Keith Lindbeck qualified third in GTP and raced in his first semi final in the division.
Bill Black returned for his second ISF career appearance and raced in a steady fashion that could make him more of a factor in races once he finds speed.
Until next time...
It's not bad being...In The Pits
