An eventful - if not fun - season. Enzo would be proud.

The 2008 Grand Am KONI Challenge Series' season has come to a close.

We had a great run with Compass360 Racing (C360R) and thank Karl, Ray and the entire crew immensely!

A complete season wrap-up is forthcoming.

KONI Challenge Series Season Ends With A Bang

Kevin York' 2008 season with C360R in the Grand Am KONI Challenge Series came to a premature end at VIRginia International Raceway today.

During his stint - after C360R team principal Karl Thomson started the six-hour race in the GoEnzo.com #73 Acura RSX-S - Kevin was engaged in spirited battles with competitors.

Suddenly the very powerful Skunk2-prepped motor lost power and Kevin coasted to the off-track area near VIR's famous Oak Tree corner.

Guest co-driver Scott Nicol - 2005 Ontario Touring GT Championship Touring Class Champion - was unable to hop in an drive his stint as a result.

More updates on the race and the entire season will be forthcoming.

Kevin and select C360R team members will next be at the 2008 Grand-Am KONI Challenge Series season-ending banquet Oct. 6 at the Sheraton Greensboro at Four Seasons in Greensboro, N.C.
