Paul Lemieux takes Modified TC title at USIC

The U.S. Indoor Championships is among the oldest and most prestigious events in carpet racing. Held on Thanksgiving weekend at the Holiday Inn in Strongsville, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland, the event draws top talent from across North America. At the end of qualifying, Paul Lemieux would hold TQ in Touring Modified while Sam Isaacs snatched the Touring 17.5T TQ, Danny Jenkins took the top qualifying honours in USGT, and Max Kuenning captured TQ in WGT.

The Modified Touring final provided excitement in the first few laps as second qualifier Keven Hebert and third qualifier Andrew Hardman battled it out. All this allowed Paul to get an early lead and eventual check-out to the tune of nearly a lap over the field. Keven Hebert would come in second while Josh Cyrul snatched the final podium spot.
