John Hunter won the 2011 Corning Circuit Race held at Watkins Glen Speedway after soloing the final 14 miles. He was part of larger break that eventually was whittled down to just four riders – including Wacek and Dan and in the end it was a podium sweep with Mt Borah/Minerva Design finishing 1-2-3! The 10th win of the season and 20th podium for the team! Thanks again to Jim Danvers for his great photos, be sure check them out here.
