Millville, NJ (26 August, 2008)—With wins in two of the last three races, 2007 KONI Challenge Champions Adam Burrows and Trevor Hopwood are the hottest drivers in KONI competition as the series gathers once again this weekend for round 8 of the 2008 championship season at a new venue in the Thunderbolt Raceway at New Jersey Motorsports Park.

Trois Rivieres, Quebec—Trevor Hopwood and Adam Burrows combined for their second Grand-Am KONI Challenge victory in three races after making an impressive run to the checkered flag at the Grand Prix de Trois Rivieres in Compass360 Racing’s No. 76 Fischer Skis Acura TSX on Saturday.

Hopwood qualified on the outside pole on Saturday morning and then moved to the lead once the race started before turning the Acura over to Burrows, who made several strong moves to the front before establishing a nearly ten-second lead on the field.

Trois Rivieres, Quebec—Kenneth Lau, car chief of Compass360’s #74 Honda Civic, took to the track this weekend in the Castrol Canadian Touring Car races. On Saturday afternoon he piloted the #39 Durabond Honda Civic to a solid second place, and followed that up with a fantastic win on Sunday morning. Best of all, his team’s other Hondas, driven by Rapone brothers Andre and Andrew, finished second and third, giving them a clean sweep of the podium. Congratulations guys!

Newton, Iowa—Compass360 Racing (C360R), fresh off their win at Watkins Glen, brought three cars to Iowa in hopes of scoring their second win in a row.

Christian Miller and Benoit Theege, both long-time Grand-Am competitors and Compass360 drivers, piloted the team’s new #74 C360R / King Motorsports Honda Civic Si.
