Pole sitter Andrew Caddell didn’t lead the first lap of Ford Racing Mustang Challenge for the Miller Cup competition, but the Graham, Washington native had an otherwise perfect weekend, leading the charts in every practice and qualifying session before going on to take a victory at Road Atlanta in the Series’ first race event.
Caddell’s TC Motorsports Ford Mustang FR500S was followed to the line by Rehagan Racing’s Jamie Slone, with Pratt Cole taking the final spot on the podium with his run to third place in the RP Motorsports Ford Mustang.
The forty-five minute event got off to a clean rolling start as twenty-one cars took the green flag. Slone made a strong move to take the lead on the start, as Caddell slotted into second. The former Spec Miata Champ Caddell took control soon after, moving to the point and
