Excited to announce Paddock Stories, a new series of 10+ articles on https://t.co/DDS7qyHdxV which will highlight many influential people in American open-wheel junior series motorsport who are *not* drivers.

Expect the first pieces to roll out near the end of September.

no Mac Clark :(

He’s running P9 in the championship.

[Eddie Fuhrer @eddie_fuhrer]

With just two races left, @HughesLochie has a 35-point lead in @USFPro2000 and heads into Portland looking for a championship and a scholarship to move to @INDYNXT.

Here’s some charts that show how Hughes has been able to put himself in that position:

Tonight's Freedom 90 will be the first @USFPro2000 race at @RaceIRP since the series switched to @continentaltire.
