(9-8-2014) Mohnton, PA – Isaiah Rojas and the Mech-Tech Team had their 68’ Tim McAmis Pro Mod Camaro ready for action and proved it with an impressive win at the “Latin American Sports Compact III Event ” at Maple Grove Raceway this past weekend. Isaiah’s consistency was awesome, running two 5.95’s in elimination’s and a 5.94 in the final to win and set the Maple Grove track record.
Conditions were awesome for elimination’s on Sunday, but Saturday’s weather had a few thunderstorms pass through in combination with a few Import oil downs and incidents cut three qualifiers down to two. The big story Saturday was points leader Fred Scriba not qualifying leaving the door open for Dwayne Wolfe and Craig Pio to close the gap on the points leader.
“This event was in partnership with Ivan Mejias, club sponsor and owner of USA Auto Supply at his 3rd annual Latin American Sports Compact III event,” said John Mazzorana NEOPMA President. “It was a well-organized event with thousands of fans in attendance and loving the action. Overall for the year, we have had 50+ different Pro Mods attend at least one of our events. That says something positive about quarter mile Pro Mod action on the East Coast.”
Fred Scriba maintains First place in points, with Dwayne Wolfe 41 points behind and Craig Pio a little over two rounds behind with one point’s event remaining October 18th at Atco Dragway. That event will determine the 2014 NEOPMA Champion.
Point standings (top 10) for NEOPMA Pro Mod Warriors Series following the Door Wars at Maple Grove Raceway.
1. Fredy Scriba 1897, 2. Dwayne Wolfe 1856, 3. Craig Pio 1661, 4. Ed Burnley 1397, 5. Angela Ray 1241, 6. Steve Kramer 1223, 7. Dean Marinis 1016, 8. Gary Courtier 998, 9. Kevin McCurdy 869, 10. Tommy Gray 839.
