It's been several years since the Stock Hatch series by EZT was run here at TORA after being moved over to Virtual Motorsports. Unable to let a popular series just fall by the wayside, EZT decided to bring the series back home to TORA, arguably the premier league now in the Forza world. Judging from the response, it was absolutely the correct decision! In all, 23 drivers participated in the series, with an average of 12 cars on the grid each week. Considering the state of Forza these days, that's a pretty impressive turnout!

DtechR was definitely the man to beat throughout the 8 races, driving with both speed and precision through most of the races. While conner7195 mounted a pretty good challenge most races, Dtech was able to hang on to win 5 of the 8 races, capturing the series championship. Only Jack Coffey was able to outrun him winning two races, and new EZT team driver EZT Spanky capitalized on a rare bad race from Dtech at Yas Marina to capture his first win.

EZT team captain EZT Neo 45 took the second place trophy after seemingly finding a new enthusiasm for the game. He had a brilliant run, landing on the podium nearly every race.

Daytona Dreams quietly raced his way to the third and final podium spot. After some miscues early in the series, the former ATP driver hunkered down and ran solidly the rest of the way.

Another new driver for team EZT was EZT Ratach. Not only did he have a great series taking the number 4 spot, but he was also the source of entertainment for each race. His commentary on anything and everything certainly gave our Twitch stream viewers something to think about!

Veteran EZT driver EZT MAKO 6669 fought through adversity and an under performing car to round out the top 5.

In addition to EZT Spanky, who ended up with a top ten finish in 7th, EZT also welcomed MrShannon2U, who finished in the 8th spot.

As if having a successful series wasn't enough excitement, EZT also welcomed back long time driver EZT WarEagle, who had been on hiatus for some time. Though he joined late in the series, WarEagle proved he hasn't lost anything on the tarmac, putting in a solid performance every race.

The team would like to thank everyone who participated!! It appears that everyone had a great time, and there was some fantastic racing thrown in there as well. If you missed the series fear not, Series Two is in the works!!!!
