As we come down from the Rocky Mountain High Thunder Valley provided us with, let’s take our weekly dive into the racing that you may or may not have watched yourself. We got our Tomac v. Rozcen battle that ended with a victor we didn’t predict. What does James Stewart have to do with all of this anyway? Jettson got knocked off the top step but still ends up on the top step? The Kitchen is cooking down there at Star Racing, and more.
Also, how insane is it that Trey Canard posted about his dislike for the BIG Acerbis marker and a few short hours later Jason Anderson about took himself AND Eli Tomac out with one. Could you imagine!
