The 3rd round of the WSK Master, which took place in Sarno from the 25th to the 28th March, did not end with the expected results for the CRG Racing Team.

These WSK races in fact, always have the priority objective of developing and testing the technical material in view of the FIA ​​Championships and from this point of view the work done, but above all, the data acquired and the feedback from the track, will be particularly important.

Xtream Rock Island Grand Prix powered by Mediacom announces course changes for 25th anniversary races

ROCK ISLAND, Ill. – The Xtream Rock Island Grand Prix powered by Mediacom has announced its race staff for 2019, the event’s 25th anniversary. Rock Island is the only time each year that this all-star team of officials work together.

“Over the years we have had the top officials available from across the U.S. and Canada. A major street race environment like this is very unique to the sport and our team has proven year after year that it is able to adapt to the challenges it provides. They also represent some of the most experienced officials in the sport and we are blessed to have them back year after year,” said Grand Prix president Roger Ruthhart.

“Each year it’s like the family come home for Christmas,” Ruthhart said.

The core of this year’s team remains essentially unchanged, although several have been added this year to address the challenges of 4 cycle tech and the growing number of classes involved.

“While we are somewhat limited in the tech we can do on a sidewalk under pressing darkness and an Awards Ceremony, technical inspections are an important part of the program and our goal is to be as thorough and fair as possible,” said Ruthhart. The race program has also been adjusted to better facilitate more complete tech.

 

Officials for the 25th annual Xtream Rock Island Grand Prix powered by Mediacom and their years of service at Rock Island include:

Terry Riggins, Indiana, race director (15 years at Rock Island)
