Under crew chief Eric Luzinski the Scion has already run a 6.446 at 218 mph in Florida testing, making it one of the quickest Pro Rear Wheel Drive cars in sport compact racing.

According to ORSCA, the Outlaw 10.5/LS/7.0/6.0 race that was rained out Aug. 21 at Phenix City, AL, is rescheduled for Sept. 11 at Phenix City Motorsports Park. The accompanying bracket race will be completed as qualified on the original date, but apparently there will be an additional round of qualifying on the rain date for all heads-up classes.
