Ryan Flores: The Indoor Auto Racing Title Favorite?

ALLENTOWN, Pa. — When the Indoor Auto Racing Series fueled by VP takes the green flag this weekend inside the PPL Center in downtown Allentown, many lingering off-season questions will be answered.

The two-day event on January 5-6 is just one of two race weekends that make up the BELFOR Property Restoration concrete series this year. There is little time for mistakes, mechanical failure or bad luck.

Many believe the favorite to win the TC Cup, the trophy presented to the series champion, this season is Ryan Flores. The Davidson, N.C. driver took the title in 2017 and won multiple times in both Allentown and Atlantic City.

Last year, Flores took the checkered flag first at both venues. However, his victory in Atlantic City was taken from him because of a post-race infraction.

Because of his full-time job as a tire changer for NASCAR Cup Series driver Ryan Blaney, Flores has not been able to run the March events in Syracuse.

With the event at the New York State Fairgrounds Expo Center not on this year’s schedule, Flores now can chase a second title.
