The third day of the contest felt the busiest so far. With many of the AMA events wrapping up at the end of the day, the competitors focused and did their best to eke out the last bits of performance from their models.
Arend Borst set a Canadian F1D record of 27:16 during the third round of the Andrew Tagliafico World Cup. At the end of the first day, Brett Sanborn is leading that event with a 29:06 and a 28:10.
The World Cup and midweight events will continue to fly for two more days.
