Toyota Atlantics US Print-backed driver Hoover Orsi finished 8th after starting from the 11th position in last weekends 50 lap oval event in Madison ILL. This was the final oval of the year for Hylton Motorsports and the Cart Toyota Atlantic Series. Next week will be the season finale in Houston where Orsi and Hylton Motorsports will be trying to put themselves on the podium for the fourth time this year.

Orsi was able to pick up a few positions early in the race but was battling a car with over steer "We had problems with the car developing over steer." Orsi said "It was hard to control the car in the corners. I was getting big drafts down the stretch but was unable to make them work when I was in the turn." As for Next week in Houston Orsi feels the track will compliment his driving style. "This is my favorite type of track and we have a good start on the setup. We should be fast starting on Friday."

Richard Raeder, Engineer, for Orsi said after Saturdays race: "We are happy to have two solid finishes this week and last. The team had to chase the balance on the car this weekend. We started off fast on Friday but as conditions changed so did the car."

Hylton Motorsports will be running in Houston on October 1st along with the CHAMP cars for the Texaco Grand Prix of Houston. For more information on Hylton Motorsports Please visit www.hyltonmotorsports.com
