Racing the Pocono Speedway shaped dirt track, Brandon over a two week span (due to rain) raked up the most points in all three classes to be declared the over champion in Sr. Honda, Light 160 as well as the World Formula.

9/6/09 - HOLY COW, we've got a lot to learn on asphalt. Brandon went to Garden State (Wall) today to battle the asphalt track and the track won. The car seemed to handle okay during the heat race. On the initial start, Brandon went for the hole, the hole closed and upside down and skidding across the surface he went. He was okay but the car was banged up. After some repairs he went back out for the C Main and unfortunately got wrecked out as another driver spun in front of him and he had no where to go. We'll be back to try again in a few weeks.

9/4/09 - AWESOME - UNBELIEVABLE - INCREDIBLE only some of the words to describe Brandon's World Formula debut at So Jersey QMA. After fighting a tight entering car in the heat race, Brandon pulled off a 3rd place finish to place him in the A Main. With a slight tire pressure change, the car came alive. Brandon started 6th in the A Main and with a big pile up on the start, he managed to avoid it all and restarted 2nd. Once the green flag dropped and a lap went by, the hammer was put down and he never looked back taking over the lead on lap 2. Brandon lead the rest of the way to his first WF win in his debut race. Oh by the way, he won his Sr Honda race too!

Brandon put on an amazing display at QMA's Dirt Grands. Amazing is the only word to describe what he acomplished. Over two days of practice, both cars were repeatly in the top ten and were ones to recoken with. Unfortunately rain came on qualifying and a poor tire choice relegated Brandon back into the lower mains. With some help from the Racing Gods and the Oaklane Crash Cart Crew, Brandon transferred the Sr Honda from the "F" main to the "A" main and the Light 160 from the "J" main to the "B" main. Brandon ended up running 15 races, over 2,000 laps and well over 7 hours of seat time. To cap off the weekend, he was awarded the Coast to Coast Racing News Hard Charger Award.
