Even though we had problems fighting handling issues Friday and Saturday, Sunday moring was much improved with cool weather and a slight tail wind. I couldn't have done it with out Eric Paquette owner of DAS Performance and Mike Zeroski for all the hard work they put into the bike.

We would also like to thank Harry's machine parts, G&G engerinering, Rick at Exile Turbos, Capone Racing, Electromotive Engine Controls.

The Thomas Cronan Riding Team is looking for sponsors for the remainder of the 2012 race season. You can find us on facebook under Thomas Cronan Riding, Eric Paquette, and DAS Performance, or at www.dasperformance.com.
