Last weekend Homestead RC Raceway was once again the host of the Novarossi Challenge. With sunny sky and a beautiful Florida weather in the mid 70"s, everything was set to have a great weekend of racing.

After a full day of practice the qualifications were underway and at the end was Paolo Morganti that claim the top spot with Serpent 966-TE.

The final was very exciting. Paolo started in the pole and immediately build a nice lead keeping his position until a small mistake from his pit crew resulted in a flame out. After the restart he was in second, on the same lap of the leader, and he had to push really hard to try to get the first position back. After and exciting 30 minutes final, he was able to win with a 2 laps cushion

After the race, this were his words: " It was a great event, full of adrenaline and excitement. It is always great to win a race and is a perfect start for the 2012 season. My package was perfect, everything worked really good.
I will like to thanks my sponsors for the great products and support: Serpent, Novarossi , Byron Fuels, Ko Propo, Team Titan, Desoto Racing, Enneti tyres and Avid Racing.
