I have the provisionals,which does not list the cars, just some drivers name and car's number and class. ITE cars took 1st and 2nd. First was a the #81 Mercedes 190 of CochEllinger and second was the #77 Porsche 996 of Coleman/Harrison.Both went 393 laps.
Third and forth were ITS cars. #78 Huges/Sarren BMW 325 (388 laps) and # 2 Miata of Foote/ Miskoe/Tier (387 laps). Fifth was the #72 Spec Miata of DePedro/Zalner, 387 laps. Sixth was th #19 Spec Miata of Espenlaub/Riley, 386 Laps. Seventh was the #93 SSM of Gorriaran/Wilson with 386 laps.
Most of the race was with a wet track, except for the last hour and a half. Heavy rain at the start, and drizzle the rest of the way. It was sucked to say the least.
Blaney/Serra/Zwiss finished second in ITA, 19th overall with 375 laps, one lap behind #00 car of Kolaczkowski. That was after rolling the car out of turn 10 in night Practice on Friday!!! I'm sure there will be more on that......

1 - ITE Mercedes (off white)
2 - ITE Porsche 996 (last year's overall winner)
3 - ITS BMW 325 (white)
4 - ITS Miata (red)

Sorry for lack of detail, the final sheet went home with someone else. Also sorry for the lack of info past 4th, I was in the 4th place car & didn't study the rest of the order, I guess its kind of self centered, but it was 1am when we got the sheet. I think 5th was a SM or an SSM.

Rained the whole time, including Friday practice & qual. Don't know how many finishers, lots of problems due to off's. No records set I'm sure.

51 cars started 41 cars finished...no major on course contact from what I heard, just people going off because of the conditions.

Just a quick summary of how we did.

I qualified the car 10th overall in the Friday night quailfier, then in the late night practice session on the last lap Andre got sideways coming onto the front straight and did a slow roll onto the roof, we worked late into the evening got it back together and had a glass shop put a windshield in it Saturday at 10:00am. We got on the track and were running 1st in class and a 7 lap lead and up to 7th overall for 11 hours. Anthony drove the final stint and on some poor tire and pit calls threw it away and we got put into second with less than 20 minutes to go.

The car ran flawlessly for the entire time, and I think my crew drank all the beer that there was in Charlestown.....

It is a very exciting and demanding time and requires real teamwork to get it done. Thanks to the workers and the region for putting on a good event.

I don't have any more details than Matt sent out.
But it was a super race. The weather was a real challenge = lousy; and the WDCR people who made it happen met that challenge = extra good event.
Thanks to all who were there.
