Berry Blisters Miami

The third week of online racing in the NASCAR iRacing.com Class C Series (fixed setup) sent the online racers to South Florida for some action at Homestead-Miami Speedway.  Put up against 1,548 sim racers proved to be no challenge to JR Motorsports Late Model driver Josh Berry (Mid-South).

Berry dominated Week Three’s high Strength of Field event, leading an impressive 32 out of 45 laps enroute to a 0.594 second margin-of-victory over North Carolina native Brad Wright. Week Three’s NiCCS open setup weekly winner Kenny Humpe (Ohio) finished in the third postion 0.781 seconds back. Richie Davidowitz (New York) came home in the fourth position and NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Scott Speed (Carolina) rounded out the top five.

1500+ iRacers towed their Silverados to South Florida for Week 3 of the NiCCS.

Berry’s victory enabled him to earn the most championship points for the week with 281. Second place for Week Three goes to Jordan Hightower (Mid-South) who scored 266 with Wright (265) right behind in third place. Fourth place was held down by Paul Kusheba (Connecticut) and filling-out the top five was Humpe.

To go with his NiCCS open setup weekly pole, Justin Brooks (Carolina) also put his Silverado on top of the speed charts in the fixed series as well. Brooks’ time of 31.944 seconds was just marginally faster than second place Ryan Luza (Texas) who turned in a time of 31.955 seconds. The third position was claimed by North Carolina native Malik Ray with a time of 31.983 seconds. Fourth went to Nicholas Goertzen (Western Canada) and completing the top five is Tibor Sandor (Central-Eastern Europe).

By earning the most championship points during the week, Berry was able to extend his season point lead over Byron Daley (New York) to 38 points. Third place is currently being held down by Hightower who is 60 points behind heading into Rockingham (Week Four). Texas native Adam Gilliland sits in the fourth position 116 points out of the lead. The final spot in the top five is occupied by Jason Jacoby (Georgia) who is 124 points back.
