Series 11 Results - Long Beach

 It was, as expected, a crazy time in LA as the FRL visited the street circuit of Long Beach for round three of the series. In the DP class, Andrew's return to racing would be a short one as connectivity issues quickly took him off the track. This left the racing to Ethan and Travis as the two remaining cars in the class. Ethan looked to have things well in hand. But with about 6 minutes left, a sideways GT car obstructed his path and brought him to a standstill. The resulting battle would fall Travis' way and he scores his second race victory of the series. 

 Bryan Dean continues to dominate at the front of the field, despite starting P3 in the class. He scores his second victory here in the streets of Long Beach. Paul Maestri earned pole to start the race but fell victim to poor braking and a tire wall, forcing him to fight from the back of the field, but would come back to claim P3. Matt Smith had a strong race and finished on the podium in P2.
