“It was really a
go slow to finish fast day,” said Yokley.
“I have to thank you to RT Pro for giving
me the best suspension parts in the industry.”
Stracham followed up her best GNCC finish ever in the last race to finish fifth here. She now sits fourth in points. She battled with difficulties all race to earn the top five. Stracham, who is paralyzed from the waist down, uses an Ace specially prepared with hand controls and built by RT Pro.

“My legs became unbelted on the first lap and they were flopping around in the ACE,” said Stracham. “It took me quite awhile to get them belted back in. I was too far back to really make a charge to the front. I fought hard this year, and we’ll be ready for the next race. The ACE worked great, as always thanks to Andy and RT Pro.”
Stracham is currently fourth in points, and just two points out of the top three, which will make for an exciting GNCC season finale with such a tight points battle in the class among a stacked field of competitors.
Yokley and Stracham will be back in action as the GNCC hosts its season finale October 29-30 at Ironman Raceway in Crawfordsville, OH with Yokley going for the championship, and Stracham chasing after her first win.
