Racing at M&M Hobbies January 31, 2009


Our inagural race at the newest racing club in Houston was held on January 31,2009. Turn out was not very big, but the racing was very, very good.

In Super Stock, Marcus Williams and Frank Hernandez battled at the front most of the day. In the end Marcus took the win with Frank in second, and the original Mini-Z race organizer in Houston, Mr. Danny Finley in third. Danny thanks for organizing this back in the day!!! Without you having hosted the races at M&M years ago, there wouldn't be a Reflex!

In the Modified class there was only 2 racers, Jacob Feinstein and Cristian Tabush. The 2 Reflex drivers displayed some great driving on this small technical course (6.5-7.0 second laps) going on average about 1.5 seconds faster than the super stock cars per lap. Jacob was out with a recently built AWD and was still getting used to the driving characteristics of the car. Cristian, on the other hand has been working on a super fast set-up on his AWD and won the 3 qualifiers and the main in convincing fashion.

Below are the results. If anyone ever wants to come race with us, feel free to contact us thorugh e-mail or phone or simply drop by on any saturday from 11am-4pm at M&M Hobbies in Bellaire, TX.
