“We had a good start and did what I was hoping
I could do,” said Barsh. “The ITP Tires had a
ton of grip. I loved the tabletop launch here.
It was one of the most fun jumps. The series is
great. The payouts are good. The track prep is
good. I can’t say enough good things about RMURA.”
Heil had to fall back due to the dusty conditions.
“I was racing him hard the first two laps,” said
Heil. “I ate a lot of dust and I just let him
go. They changed up the course from the last race
and I liked it. I can’t wait to do more of this
next year.”
