Next year, the company intends to roll out new four-cylinder models...

These are the absolute results (overall) for day 6. I have not had time yet to check them all but there are some very close races amongst classes not to mention even the overall winners could break, spin, or have problems so it isnt over until the fat lady sings. Ironically one of the most exciting matches is in the oldest class, the Original Panamericana Class. Carson and Lauren Scheller in the #433...
