ACES AND HEATHENS TAKE FIRST ROUND WINS WHILST BROC NICOL LEADS THE WAY ON 17 POINTS!
Round 1 of the 2019 Team League was held at Perris Raceway, CA on February 16th 2019 with the Aces and Heathens winning their matches. It was the third attempt to stage the race after two rain outs, a third rain out was almost expected after heavy downpours two days ahead but miracle track work provided a superb race surface that needed little attention all race long.
The first match saw the Vikings race the Heathens. Despite looking weaker on paper, the Vikings took an early lead and actually kept matters close until the last three heats where they ran out of gas. Gino Manzares led the way for the Vikings with 12 points with lower end support from Michael Wells and Mike Miller keeping them in contention. In the end they could not hold back the power top three of Max Ruml (11), Chris Kerr (10+1) and Colton Hicks (8+1) that saw the Heathens through.
