Round 3 was an action packed race with Christopher starting in the 2nd row, while Bailey and Weitzel battled it out up front which ultimately led to them both spinning out. This opened the door for Ronnie Anderson and Christopher to run away from the pack. Ronnie and Christopher both ran a great clean race with Anderson taking the top spot and Christopher finishing 2nd.


"It's always fun racing with my good friend Ronnie. I'm glad to see him and the whole RJ37 team back at the track. I tried to make some moves on him and capitalize on any potential mistakes but he ran a clean race and wasn't giving up much." - Christopher Polvoorde


In Round 4 of the Great American Shortcourse series, Christopher took the lead in turn two and never looked back! Christopher ran a clinic out there and his Toyo Tires had that Ford Ranger hooked up the whole race while Christopher did his thing and drove the wheels off!


"I am so stoked to put this Ford Performance / STEEL-IT / Optima Batteries Pro Lite on top of the box for the first time of the season. The crew gave me a really fast truck and the track was in great condition. Can't wait until the next GAS races!" - Christopher Polvoorde
