Race Report: Season Wrap-Up, November 2008

    
  
    After a disappointing finish at the NASA Nationals at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in September the Edo Motorsports team regrouped and fixed the Integra back to shape in order to finish the 2008 Socal season.  A lot of components were replaced on the front of the car as the damage was significant.  The points chase was still up for grabs with EdoMoto driver Edik in first followed closely by Benny and Manny.  The goal was to finish the remaining races in order to stay in lead  and win the season championship for the Honda Challenge H4 class. 
    The first set of races at Buttonwillow in October did not fair well for team EdoMoto as a transmission problem developed throughout the weekend.  Edik was still able to qualify 3rd and finish 2nd.  Sunday’s practice and qualifying sessions were tough as 3rd gear was no longer available.  Edik was still able to hold on to 4th place for the first quarter of the race until the car shut itself off.  This ended the race for Edik and brought the point gap between him and Benny closer. 
    With the last round of the season less than a month away, the Integra was given a fresh transmission along with the electrical gremlin taken care of.  Aerodynamics were removed from the vehicle as there was not enough time to fabricate a splitter. 
    The last round started slow but consistent as Edik qualified 5th and finished 5th to lock himself in as the 2008 Southern California Honda Challenge H4 champion.  Team Edo Motorsports wrapped up the season with their 8th win on Sunday after fabricating and installing a splitter for the car.  Edik started in 5th position again and worked his way up one-by-one and taking the lead with only 2 laps remaining. 
    This marks the 4th championship out of 5 seasons for Edik and team Edo Motorsports.        

        Edo Motorsports would like to thank all our sponsors for the support throughout the season and for Nationals.   Edomoto would also like to thank all the people that helped out as well.  THANK YOU.
