Thumbs up RX-8 Lapping Day/Al's Big victory article now up!

Hey everyone,

I have posted the article about BEMC/CASC Spring Trophy Races on Autotrader.ca.

The blogs recieve about 10 000 hits a day, so Al, the race series and RX8 club should get a lot of visibility. That plus the article is right on the front page of Autotrader which gets 100 000's of views everyday across Canada.



Here it is:

Direct Link to Article:
BEMC/CASC 59th Annual Spring Trophy Races



If you want to see how it looks on the mainpage, go to autotrader.caMainpage:

Mike thanks so much for the great article! Whoever "batman" is.... as we up north here say "dont know jack s__t". Thanks for your defense you guys! One thing in the article that I know someone will call out is the race is a 1990 GXL not GSL-SE, they didnt make that model after 1985............lol. I posted a link on the CASC forums to your great article as well! Thanks again!
