2009
Racing is
complicated. It’s very tough
to deliver consistency no matter the level, no matter the car, no
matter the series. We have
been very fortunate. For the
last few years our team has delivered consistent, action filled
results. We all know it’s
hard to keep that up given all the modern day race variables. All odds are against a consistent
winning performance but…the H 10 O Team has done it again and
delivered several wins. Some
came from the pole, some from dead last. The team delivered and maintained its winning
reputation. This year’s
performance earned us the North Atlantic Road Racing Championship and
the New Jersey Road Racing Series Championship! All in all, we are up to 12
championships since the team’s inception.
So what’s
in for 2010? New tow rig, new
car and the same hard working team.
Like I always say, as long as the people side remains
unchanged the results will be the same. No matter the level…
2008
The 2008
season proved to be a fitting dream sequel to 2007. The team’s lap record and
championship winning Maserati powered Dodge Daytona never broke
stride. Every time the Dodge
competed it delivered a win, a track record or the fastest race
lap. This exceptional
performance led to setting new records at both tracks of the newly
inaugurated state-of-the-art New Jersey Motorsports Park in
Millville, New Jersey bringing its total record breaking ability to
four separate road racing tracks.
In addition, Sanchez Motorsports achieved a significant
benchmark by adding a Tenth Championship (the New Jersey Road Racing
Series Championship) to its resume.
The legacy
continues…
2007
If it’s
true that points don’t always tell the true tale of a racer’s season
2007 would be it. Frank
brought out his 2004/2005 championship winning GT1 Camaro for the
first MARRS race and was dominant.
He qualified first, had the fastest race lap and finished
first. He then accepted the
challenge of resurrecting a long forgotten Maserati powered non-turbo
Dodge Daytona. This was no
ordinary Dodge Daytona. It
was the 1991 IMSA GTU Championship winning racer that had not turned
a wheel since it was put on display at the Delmar museum in Delmar,
California. After thoroughly
rebuilding the car he set two track records at three events and won
all three races. The little
Dodge that could delivered and Frank is looking forward to a great 2008
with renewed interest, new sponsorship, and continued success.
2006
The hint of
a smile comes across Frank’s face when he talks about his 2006
season, having finished second in points after having raced less than
the full schedule. However
the smile quickly disappears as he remembers that from a personal
perspective 2006 was a difficult year. This was the year that Frank lost his mother and his
father-in-law. He knew Gene,
an avid supporter and crew member, would have been proud. His worst finish all year was
second after starting 36. In
retrospect 2006 was a year to remember for many reasons.
2005
Our 2005
season generated outstanding results. During the 10 race
series, the team finished in the top three positions in every event
entered with only one exception. This consistent performance
led us to the Mid-Atlantic Road Racing Championship for the second
year in a row.
We have a very ambitious plan for
the upcoming season and are looking forward to continued
success.
