Young Rookie Prevails in Race-Long Battle to Take 10th Podium of the Year and Touring Car Championship; Ron Yarab Impresses in First Event with the Team.

MANSFIELD, OH — From the drop of the green flag to the waving of the checkered the battle for the top spot in Touring Car at Mid-Ohio raged between Michael DiMeo and Adam Poland. Lap after lap, and sometimes corner to corner, the two young drivers swapped places for the lead, keeping the large Saturday crowd on their feet and enthralled. Both used lapped traffic to gain an advantage over their rival, with dramatic passes being taken by each, often with less than an inch or two between the cars as they went side-by-side through Madness and the Carousel.

Hey gang, just landed in Detroit for a few days of work on the OEM side of the automotive industry. While I’m sitting in my hotel digesting questionable sushi, I figured I’d recap Canadian Tire Motorsport Park for you.

"The Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge makes it's only trip to Canada this weekend and a stop at Mosport. Compass360 Racing and their Honda Civics are on pace for a solid day at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park. Join us as we go Trackside with Honda Racing HPD."

Kyle Gimple is having a summer to remember as the young driver backed up his career-best qualifying result on Friday with a debut IMSA Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge victory on Saturday in the Continental Tire 150 at the Glen in the No. 75 Honda Civic Si Children’s Tumor Foundation/HPD/Racing4Research.org for Compass360 Racing.

KANSAS, KS — After a successful outing at Lime Rock Park two weeks ago in which Compass360 Racing’s sharply-liveried Subaru WRX STi took its first podium of the season at the hands of Ryan Eversley and Kyle Gimple, the car will return to battle at Kansas Speedway this coming weekend, this time being driven by long-time C360R pilot Ray Mason and team newcomer Pierre Kleinubing.

Local artist Jeff Hanson — who was commissioned to create the piece of original art that adorns the GS-class #76 Subaru, as well as the team’s ST-class #75 Honda Civic Si helmed by Gimple and Eversley — will be celebrated at the event, along with an entourage of family, friends and other local-area NF Heroes.
