We had a great weekend of Electrathon racing in Lee County at Buckingham Field thanks to Jen and her group at Lee County Parks and Recreation.
Saturday morning teams arrived and were ready to race. Teams from as far away as Milton and Hialeah Florida joined us.
Our first race on Saturday went very well. The second race, teams stepped up their pace and challenged each other until the checkered flag dropped.
The Archer , Mulberry and Tiger teams kept it interesting, passing one another throughout the race. The Tiger team got everyone’s attention on the straight away when they kicked up the speed and left others in their mirrors on more than one occasion. Tiger Racing Driver Rodney Schreck stated that he was going over 40mph.
