JR Mitch wins at Nitro Force Series Rd1

The Florida Nitro Series began at famous Lake Park Raceway just outside of Tampa. TLR’s JR Mitch took the win in the Nitro Buggy main only after showing up Sunday morning fresh with zero track time. With morning practice and jumping into the lower main, track time on the current surface would work to his favour. Moving through and in to the B Main, then on to the A-main, Mitch started moving his way through the field from his bump up spot at the back of the grid to take the win despite this being a 1-day event for him.
