AP Racing Radi-CAL helps Rob Harper seal USTCC Victory in his C5Z06 at Sonoma!

09.13.2018

Rob Harper made the jump to an Essex Designed AP Racing Radi-CAL Competition Brake Kit this season, and they've helped carry him to the winner's circle. Rob commented on the brakes after the win, "I have to sincerely give this win to the AP Racing team as late braking was the key to the win. I was trailed by only 5 car lengths the entire 40 minutes and my front & rear AP Radi-CAL setup never gave up even as driver fatigued and made some mistakes. It was the difference today. Thank you, guys. On to the final championship round!"

Harper wins in GT while Makishima wins in Super Touring.
"Sonoma, CA – After a long summer break, it was time for racing and the teams headed to Sonoma Raceway for battle. Rob Harper won the GT class in the BC Forged /AP Racing Chevrolet Corvette while Doug Makishima won the Super Touring class in the MCS/TNI Racing BMW M3. Gary Sheehan scored the victory in the GoGoGear.com/Konig Wheels Hyundai Genesis and Edgar Lau was first in the Ravenol BMW 330i.
Harper qualified on pole by only 1/10th of a second over the BAF Auto Body Jaguar XKR-S of Sam Stowell. The Corvette was quick but they had a deteriorating clutch that needed to be changed and the Life’s Good Racing crew changed the clutch overnight and were ready for the race. At the start Harper took the early lead but at Turn 6 went a bit wide and Stowell took over the lead. A few laps later it was Stowell who went off allowing Harper to seize the opportunity for an easy pass."

You can watch the race in its entirety on NBC Sports BA in late October available on Comcast cable, AT&T Uverse, Dish Network or DirecTV.
