I believe you guys are getting Speed World Challenge and US Touring Car mixed up. Cunningham drives for Realtime Racing in a TSX in World Challenge. Realtime does dominate World Challenge. Dave Brown drives for Opak Racing/Spoon Sports in USTCC in the RSX seen in the video. His car was actually quicker than mine all weekend.

oh my bad. I didn't know there were multiple Cunninghams in the sport and I didn't know that one of them still drove for Realtime.

Thank for the info and clearing things up. The race in the video you were so far ahead, was that based on the track that day or you just got a hell of a whole shot and never looked back or what . If you don't mind me asking. Good luck

It was a combination of things. The whole shot aloud me to get clear of the standing start mahem is turn 1, I was able to get through there at full speed. Also, Dave got slowed up for the first lap or two battling with third place. My biggest lead was about 8 seconds half way through the race. Then my tires started to go off and I had to slow down a little. Luckily, Daves tires did the same and he was only able to make up about 2 seconds before the end of the race. It a short sprint race like this, grid position is huge. The cars are so equally classed this year, passing someone has become much more of a job. If I can get on the front row in qualifying in any race, with AWD that pretty much assures me that I will be in first coming our of turn 1. Then it is my race to loose.
