Carolina Motorsports Park Race Weekend


Another exciting weekend to the 2013 NASA South East SpecE30 season as TPR's 2 car entries co-sponsored and prepared by Harrison Motorsports competed at Carolina Motorsports Park on May 18 and 19.

Racing in a competitive 18 car SpecE30 field, Eric Palacio, driving the lead TPR entry and having qualified P1, won Saturday's feature race leading flag to flag, with the senior TPR team driver, Julio Palacio who qualified P2, finishing in 2nd place. 

On Sunday, with the field on race tires (slicks), rain started to fall mid-way through the race with Eric and Julio again running 1-2.  Julio utilized a slight bobble by Eric to take the lead and recorded his first SpecE30 win when the race was called early due to severe weather in the area.  Eric finished P2 completing another 1-2 weekend race finish for TPR.

Congratulations to Julio on his first Sprint Race win and to TPR on a great season to date.



The next event is June 15 & 16 at Road Atlanta.

2013 NASA South East SpecE30 @ Roebling Road Raceway



Another exciting weekend to the 2013 NASA South East SpecE30 season as TPR's 2 car entries co-sponsored and prepared by Harrison Motorsports competed at Roebling Road Raceway on April 13 & 14.

Racing in an extremely competitive 20 car SpecE30 field, Eric Palacio, driving the lead TPR entry, won Saturday's feature race leading flag to flag, with the senior team driver, Julio Palacio, taking the final podium spot in 3rd place.

On Sunday, with rain on the horizon, the team gambled on pending rain (only cars to run full rain tires) and used their front pack starting positions to hold off the field when the rain held off until race end. The team hung on to 3rd and 6th finishes with Eric (incredibly) leading the first part of the race.

Congratulations to the team on a fantastic start to the season. TPR is currently 1-2 in the SpecE30 season point standings.

The next event is May 18 & 19 at Carolina Motorsports Park.

Team Palacio Racing co-sponsored by Harrison Motorsports


An exciting kickoff to the 2013 NASA South East SpecE30 season as TPR's 2 car entries co-sponsored and prepared by Harrison Motorsports enjoyed great success at the season opening event at Carolina Motorsports Park in early February.



Eric Palacio, driving the lead TPR entry, won both features races - setting a track record in the process - and led both races flag to flag.  Julio Palacio, the senior TPR driver, finished 4th in the first race and closed out the weekend with a 3rd place finish in race 2.  A father/son/HMS podium!




The next race is March 9-10 at Road Atlanta.
