JConcepts Super Cup Rd5 short course report

With a reported weather storm on the radar, a quick change of itinerary from Coral Springs to Treasure Coast Raceway made round 5 of the Super Cup even more exciting. With this being a make-up and additional race to the 2010 series, drivers were hyped and ready for action on the technical Treasure Coast track. Huge thanks to both the Coral Springs club and Treasure Coast Speedway for their constant effort and support of the racers in Florida. In the Pro 2 stock SCT class, it was a battle between the points leader Jimmie Cooper and Craig Lowe. Cheston VanAlstyne put his Kyosho truck in the TQ position but a problem forced him out of contention early leaving Jimmie and Craig to battle things out. Craig reigned supreme and earned his 1st win on the 2010 Super Cup series. Jimmie Cooper finished in 2nd with Aaron Wood rounding out the top 3.

Pro 4 SCT was the Scott Delfino show taking TQ in qualifying and 1st place in the A-main. Taking the lead early Scott looked to take the competition out with a stellar opening few minutes. Walter LaFleur and Randy Deppen applied some pressure early but Scott was on rails and powered his way across the line to a well deserved win. Finishing in 2nd was Walter LaFleur with Randy Deppen taking 3rd. Scott Delfino’s stock Slash 4×4 was running on the newly released JConcepts Subcultures in Green compound.

Finishing up the day was the popular Pro 2 Modified SCT class. TQ Scott Delfino took the lead quickly but Mike Applegate was hot on his heels and overtook Scott. Running a clean and consistent race Mike pulled just a large enough lead to relieve some of the pressure. Mike crossed the finish line taking 1st with Scott Delfino closely behind in 2nd and Cheston VanAlstyne in 3rd.
