Excitement roared and champagne poured at Lime Rock Park, as TKi Motorsport commanded the NASA Pro Racing GTS3 class for 1st and 2nd place victories.  Driver Josh Koropchak now leads the GTS3 driver’s championship.

Josh Koropchak was at the top of the time sheets and started in the front row for Friday’s race.  After twenty-seven laps, Koropchak crossed the finish line in 2nd place for a podium finish.

“The Volvo did well in today’s race.  Unfortunately part of the car’s ABS system failed, which slowed down our pace, but we are preparing for tomorrow,” said Chris Rhom, TKi Motorsport engineer.

As the fog dissipated early Saturday morning, Volvo enthusiasts from Swedespeed.com filled the paddock to show support for the Volvo marque.  After set-up changes and a spectacular qualifying session, Koropchak established a pole position for Saturday’s race.   Not only did Koropchak finish in 1^st place in the race, he also set a new track record for the GTS3 class.

“The car performed flawlessly thanks to the crew.  Our dedication to further the potential of the S60 has finally paid off with a victory.  Being able to win in front of the Volvo fans put the icing on the cake,” said Josh Koropchak.

The next race weekend is September 4 and September 5 at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania.

TKi Motorsport driver and crew were on point for NASA Pro Racing Northeast Series Round 3 action at Pocono Raceway this past weekend.  Charging their way to 2^nd and 4^th place finishes, TKi was able to collect more points in the hunt for the 2010 GTS3 Championship.

With the drop of the green for Saturday’s race, Koropchak beautifully launched the Volvo S60 Challenge race car from third place to first place in a matter of seconds.  As he slowed cautiously for turn one on the opening lap, an out of class junior racer made contact with the #322 Volvo S60, causing the junior racer to spin, and forcing Koropchak off track. Inevitably falling to sixth place, Koropchak was able to regain two positions to cross the finish line in fourth place.

After a flawless qualifying session on Sunday, Koropchak started the race from pole position.  With a safety car and restart on lap four, a battle ensued among first and second place.  Koropchak crossed the finish in second place while also collecting valuable points.  The TKi Motorsport Volvo and Josh Koropchak are currently second in the chase to the GTS3 Championship.

The next race weekend takes place at the historic Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Connecticut on August 13 and August 14.  On August 14, TKi Motorsport will be hosting a Volvos at the Track meet in coordination with Swedespeed.com.  Event includes Volvo parade laps and car corral, free raffle, paddock tour, and top-notch hospitality.
