Last weekend was a big weekend for team Lovell Racing. On Saturday, Brad Lovell walked away with 1st place in Pro Light. Winning at Crandon is about as good as it gets. So, here’s two more shots to add to our TORC photo set of Brad Lovell himself.

Launch pad and official Ultra4 scores.

Erik Milller is one of our favorite Ultra4s to watch. He’s seasoned, calculated, and of course fast. Certainly one of the top guys to race Crandon last weekend, but like others short course gremlins got the best of his rig. That, plus a hard roll, and things didn’t go quite the way he and his team planned.

His performance turned heads all the same though, and Erik along with the rest of the Ultra4s showed Crandon just how capable these machines really are. The shot above is of Erik Miller, skyrocketing off Crandon’s Launch Pad. No doubt one of our favorite shots of the weekend.

Also, official Ultra4 scores just came in last night, courtesy of Ultra4Racing. Here they are:

Big Ugly in the Big House.

After one of the most insane crashes in Ultra4 history, Kevin Sacalas worked non-stop to get his rig, The Big Ugly, back in shape for the rest of the Ultra4 season. Although Crandon isn’t officially part of the Ultra4 series, points wise, with the Big Ugly repaired ahead of schedule, Kevin made the trip to The Big House last weekend.

There’s still a few electrical gremlins to work out in the Big Ugly, which held it back from a top spot, but man was it fast! We’re hoping to see Kevin again next month at Glen Helen. No doubt he’ll be a force to be recorded with.

Derek West knows how to drift.

Derek West grabbed himself a 2nd place spot at Crandon last Saturday. No doubt he was right at home in The Big House.

Crandon photos underway.

Over the next 1-2 weeks, we’ll be building up our TORC Round 5 & 6 photo set on Flickr. Each day, we’ll post a new photo right here and on Flickr so as to build up the set over time. If you want to see the in-progress set now, just head over to http://www.flickr.com/photos/spidertrax/sets/72157630186354572/ .

The photo above is from last Saturday, shot right after Brad received his trophy for taking 1st place in Pro Light. It was a great Fathers Day weekend after all.
