Redline Time Attack Spring Mountain
MotoIQ readers are familiar with the Berk Technology 135i which won the Street Tire RWD class setting a lap record in the process.

Running un-opposed in the Super Modified RWD class was Paul Brown in the gorgeous K&N Filters Infiniti G35. Brown piloted the highly modified luxury coupe to a 2:28.891. Dez Ballard has become one of the crowd favorites in the little monster ABF Motoring MINI Cooper S, but Ballard suffered a non-motorsports related knee injury so the team left the Super Modified FWD MINI back at the shop, but when Ballard learned that the World Racing crew was not in attendance, he jumped in a bone stock MINI Cooper with an automatic transmission and went out to seize the opportunity to get 1st place points toward the championship. Dez piloted the bone stock MINI Cooper S to a 2:52.785.

 Our buddy from Formula D, Kyle Mohan drove his back up drift car in Drift Class.

Although the Super Modified class was very thin, the Modified class ranks were yet again packed with competition in the AWD division, the big names being COBB Tuning, NNI Racing, Takata Time Attack, and 034 Motorsports. Brian Lock and the COBB Tuning R35 GTR have been the ones to beat all season long and the domination continued at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch as Lock drove the GTR to a 2:21.421 awarding him a new class record and the Overall Modified and Modified AWD class wins. Christian Miller in the 034 Motorsports Audi A4 came in 2nd with a 2:26.860 and James Elterman in the Takata Time Attack / LIC Motorsports Subaru STI landed in 3rd with a 2:30.052.

 The awesome Modified RWD AFI Turbo S2000 driven by Jeremy Renshaw.

AFI Turbo brought their Honda S2000 back out to this event with some major changes and after their win and track record here last year, everyone was anxious to see how the car would perform. Unfortunately they lost a motor in practice and it was Carl Rydquist who took yet another Modified RWD victory in his Hankook/City Tire/AE Performance Nissan 350Z with a 2:33.176. Casey Dennis in the Kraftwerks Honda S2000 fought his way to a 2nd place finish in Modified RWD with a 2:35.916 and Kelley Speilberg would round out the podium with a 2:45.210.
