THANK YOU to all the racers/crew and fans who came out this past Labour day wkd

Over 350 race teams came to GBM this past weekend for our Championship wkd ( both for the GBM and Ultimate programs). There were many close points battles some coming down to the last round and congrats to all those who emerged as Class Champions (official listing will be posted here shortly) . Mother Nature threw rain at us again this past weekend which curtailed our Sat program from getting finished and carried on into Sun morning. We were able to get going on Sun by approx Noon thanks to the hard work of the GBM staff, the racers who came and helped us out and the equipment we had onsite. (We used it all – the Jet dryer, the Vacuum truck, the sweeper/blower Tractor, the Buffalo blower, 6 backpack&hand blowers and numerous people on brooms). Track prep was awesome this past wkd Thanks to the Ultimate & GBM staff – we set new records in Pro Mod MPH at 257.73 MPH , Top Sportsman ET at 6.38 seconds and in Jet Funny car MPH at 279MPH, plus numerous Pro Mod runs on the 5.90′s. and Nostalgia Nitro Funny car runs in the 5.50′s and 60′s at 250+MPH.

It was a long day on Sunday as we finished close to midnight and I want to Thank all of you for staying with us to the end and closing out our points season.
