Record Lap Time Not Verifiable & Old Record Stands

#20K Outlaw Sprint Car of Thomas Kennedy

Last Friday night during Hotlaps at River Cities Speedway the "Fastest" Outlaw Sprint Car without question was the #20K Car of Thomas Kennedy. His lap time during hot laps was around 10 seconds in traffic. With a clear racing line who knows how fast Thomas would be during his heat race. Transponder was verified working fine on the 20k during Hotlaps so all lap times were official.

Low and behold in Thomas Kennedy's heat the reading on the timers showed that Thomas had beat the all time lap record by about a half of second. With a verified working transponder in Hotlaps the story was published to congratulate the #20k of Thomas Kennedy and his team that they broke the record.

During later review it was determined that the #20K Sprint Car record can not be verified and his time will be listed as unofficial. It was determined that the #20K transponder was malfunctioning during his heat and scored manually therefore cannot be officially recorded as the world record best lap time.

River Cities Speedway going forward has taken actions to help eliminate this from happening again. Functioning transponders are a must to have an official score.
