A four year veteran of the series, Steve Shaffer and his brand new bright yellow Corvette Z06 made the jump to a new division this year. After competing in the Factory Street division in each of the past three season, Shaffer moved into the New Edge division introduced this year.
“I’ll be here all summer,” said Schaffer. “I get a new ‘Vette every year and I run it, have fun, and I enjoy coming out here. This is the best place to run and I’ve been to all of them around here and AMS has the best show in town.”
Shaffer wasted no time in tuning his machine to battle the competition in the New Edge Division. He earned his second win in as many events by defeating newcomer Ken Collier in the final on Friday night.
“Tonight it’s been running real good,” said Shaffer. “The thing about the Z06 is they run consistent and the drag radials definitely helped with the track which was biting real good tonight. The (AMS staff) did a great job of prepping the track tonight.”
Other competitors who also ended up in victory lane with Shaffer tonight included the Nate Morales in the Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Division, Chris Morgan of in the Harding Plumbing, Heating & Cooling Domestic Division and Kevin Prescott in the Harbin’s Mechanical Sport Compact Division.
