Racing Roundup: NHRA let-down, Finn getting ready

Not much action for Canadian ex-pat racers this past weekend; Alberta’s Mike Scott was at Lucas Oil Raceway in Indianapolis for the NHRA’s Top Fuel Harley finale, and didn’t get the results he wanted.

Scott ended up failing to qualify for the elimination rounds at the Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals; the final elimination round came down to Doug Vancil vs. Tii Tharpe, and Tharpe won, which gives him that championship.

Scott has been experimenting with new machinery this year, and from the clip above, you can see he seems pretty chill about the whole season and expects to be back in contention next year.

The MotoAmerica season had the weekend off, but Jonathan Finn is getting ready for action over in Spain, where he was testing in preparation for the second half of the Pre Moto3 series, which kicks off next weekend. If Facebook and Instagram are any indication, he’s been working hard this summer to get ready for the fall’s racing, so stay tuned on that one.
