38TH SCORE SAN FELIPE 250 TROPHY TRUCK CLASSES
Bryce Menzies lost the front wheel drive on the No. 7 AWD truck and dropped
back from the leaders, but wasn't out of the race. Luke McMillin in the No. 83 AWD
truck quickly dealt with a couple of flats that slowed him down but continued to
push hard.
By race mile 160, Kevin Thompson in the No. 70 truck, took the lead after starting
in the 7th position, passing Vildosola who had his third flat tire of the day. But with
such a short course like this one, the team with the fewest mistakes can win. Battling
with both Vildosola and McMillin on the course, Ampudia stayed close behind
McMillin. After crossing the finish line behind McMillin, Ampudia's correct time was
approximately one second quicker to take the SCORE Trophy Truck Class win.
"It was a fun day and we had a good run," said McMillin after finishing in second
place. "We got shuffled back at the beginning and lost some track time and a couple
of positions, but made it all back up and kept pushing. We did have two flat tires that
cost us some time. The truck was great, solid, and fast. I was very happy with it. It was
a fun day and a great race course. Thank you to SCORE for putting it on."
