Congratulations to Eric Greener #357 on his first career Corr Podium with a 3rd place finish in Round #7!
Jeff Knupp #354 paced the Single Buggy Field in round #7 practice and qualifying taking the pole by over a second on 2nd place, but and early lap spin dropped him to the rear of the 32 car field. He was able to race back to the front in the 10 lap race to place a strong 6th. Round #8 saw Eric come out and take the #2 qualifying spot, while Jeff had problems getting a grip on the very wet track and was only able to get the 22nd spot. Unfortunately Jeff and Eric must have eaten there "Fruit Loops" for Breakfast because they both "looped" their cars while in the top 5. Jeff was able to fight back in the 9th position, with Eric bringing in a 16th. Round #8 results don't due the team justice, but the two single buggy drivers are still happy with the weekend and the progress they have made with there new cars
Super Buggy Teamate #987 Mike Cohen suffered power steering problems in Round #7 that dropped him to a 21st place finish, and had a strong race in Round #8 and finished 16th in the large class.
Volkspower Racing is Excited to announce two new additions to the team. Dan's Performance Parts and Jamar Performance Products have come on board to help make Volkspower Racing more of a force in the Corr Single Buggy Class! The Volkspower Racing crew has been hard at work the last few weeks trying to sort out there new cars and getting them ready for the next two rounds of Corr Racing. Jeff's car is currently undergoing a gear change at Kevin McMullen Racing, along with some new top secret Jamar Racing parts that Jeff will be testing. Jeff and Eric also just returned from a trip to Jimenez Racing Engines (714-535-5116) to tune up there new Hot Rod 1600 motors and were very pleased with the new power they found on the Dyno. Thanks to George and Mike for all there help. Jeff and Eric are looking forward to Chula Vista in 5 weeks to see what they can do with a tuned motor! Looking Forward to seeing everybody in July at Chula Vista!
