March
22, 2003 – Sebring, Florida – D’Agostino
doubles at Sebring
Still leading
Regional
Championship with one round to go
Joe D’Agostino competed in the Southern Regional Championship this weekend
at Sebring. “We used the same 12 Hour course as I raced on last weekend,
so it was good to go back and see if I improved on my driving”, D’Agostino
said.
The weather did not cooperate as rain came down and wet the course enough
to put the treaded tires on. In qualifying D’Agostino sat on the pole
and with the changing weather looked forward to improving his skills under
these
conditions.
Race one was held on Saturday and D’Agostino concentrated on learning
how to go fast under varying track changes. “The last time I raced here
in similar conditions I took too long to get going, so my goal was to make
the first lap fast without falling off the track” said D’Agostino.
The checker waved and D’Agostino won the race unchallenged.
“ Today was good for me because I made progress in the areas that needed
improvement”.
Sunday provided similar conditions and D’Agostino once again looked to
improve his skills. The results were the same as D’Agostino won and continued
his lead in the Southern Series Regional Championship with one race to go.
The finale will be held at Daytona Speedway on April 12, 13.
Joe wishes to thank all of his sponsors, Arai, Corsa, Kart Mini, Dodge, Michelin,
Skip Barber Racing School and all of his personal sponsors.
