The Socal Cup in 2011 was dominated in 55+ by Swami's Mike Birditt and Dale Luedtke. Kal Szkalak was 3rd and lost part of the season do to a bad crash and injury at Ontario. Kal was 2nd at the time of his accident and out too long to challenge for the top spot and was passed by Dale. Dale had good form at the end of the season and Swami's worked to help him secure the 2nd spot. Kal was able to come back but no one could come back from that kind of injury and be in top form. Fred Hoblit showed consistently good form through the season and secured the 4th spot. Steve Hensler was 5th and the last paying spot in Socal Cup. The SCNCA paid out to 5 spots in both 55+ and 60+. The podium ceremony was Dec. 4th, 2011 in downtown LA during a Socal Cross race.
The 60+ Socal Cup lead changed hands a number of times. Bob Wright and myself traded time in the 1st slot with David Lang right there. Mike Marotta definitely had the best form and once Mike started racing consistently he took over the 1st spot. I was 2nd with Bob taking 3rd place. Bob gave up some Socal Cup points to secure the BAR series lead in 60+ with CBR. David Lang was 4th and Monty Pettus was 5th. I published the Socal Cup down to over 40 places below.
