Ursaner would have been 3rd but got unlucky in the last minute of the race as he had to wait for a marshal to pick cars that had crashed on front of his and lost the spot by these few seconds...

What a great race. The online stats for the racing were inadvertently titled wrong. The GT Coupe PD class is the one with 32 entries. That mistake along with the qualifying posting will be corrected early next week. Whew! Almost need a dedicated statistian. More great racing to come on Saturday with F1 and Sunday CanAm. Tune in and watch.

Congrats to Ron, Rick, and all the other top finishers.
Does anyone have the TQ times and lap totals from the previous years to compare with this year?

We are having a great time so far. Spent most of the limited time yesterday learning the track, was a little off at first but got into the 4's by the end of my main, so happy with that. Broke a guide on lap 12 of the GTC PD race, so that sucked! Mikes practice format works pretty well, and things are running very efficiently and track is in good shape. Anyone contemplating coming should definitely come check it out! Mike is putting on a great show, happy to be here!

Ron's dark secret:
Are you saying Ron's got it "in the bag".
Maybe his Mom packed his lunch?

Besides the bodies, is there any difference in this class and Can Am?

The only thing bad about Retro is admitting that you remember doing it originally.
