Joshua Berman is the undisputed 2017 VRC World Champion in 1:10 nitro sedans. After winning Spec class 2 weeks earlier, Berman now reigned again in modified class, taking the wholeshot at the start and never looked back. He benefited from his closest challenger, Giordano, strategy to do a tire change half way which cost him some 15 seconds extra. Giordano had the faster pace the 2nd half of the race but fell 4 seconds short of catching the flying American. Excluding pitstops Berman drove an impacable 21.460 average (without pitstops) with a fastest lap of 21.62. Giordano's pace was 21.338 average!
'Good old' Graham Raistrick from the UK secured 3rd spot 9 seconds behind Giordano.
