Patrick Chio continues to race in the US Touring Car Championship (USTCC) with the Speed SF/ Z Car Garage Nissan 350z. The events are televised on Final Drive TV with some great commentary and white-knuckle action!
Round 3 was held at Laguna Seca and Patrick started on the pole! Patrick finished 5th and had a DNF, videos below:
“I qualified pole position in Touring Car class. However, a slow start caused me to fall back to the 7th position. Climbed up to 4th and spun out due to oil on the track at 18:50 mark in the video.”
Round 6 was held at Sonoma Raceway and Patrick captured a 2nd place finish!!!. It was a very close battle with a very experienced pro driver. We will post the video soon. For now, check out this short recap from USTCC.com
“Sheehan, driving the GoGoGear.com / UTI / Konig Wheels Hyundai Genesis Coupe, thought he had the race in the bag after built a five second gap after the first lap but Patrick Chio, driving the Speed SF / Z Car Garage Nissan 350Z started clicking some fast laps and by lap 7 was less than half second behind. Sheehan had to drive as hard as he could to pull out a win. After the race Sheehan said, “I left nothing on the table. That’s all I had.” Finishing in third place was Justin Crickenberger in the Hawk/ Competition Clutch/ Sparta BMW M3.”
We are very proud of you Patrick! If you missed it catch Round 1 and 2 results HERE
