Have been wanting to go watch a race at Laguna Seca. Looks like this year will be the perfect time to go.
Best of Luck
We'll be cheering for you guys - hopefully the Corrado will still keep shaking things up in ITS also!

So how did the testing go at VIR? You ready to rock out in Daytona? We'll be watching :026:
The car has real potential We have a few things to iron out including the team!
Anyone have an extra $20,000 laying around? Daytona will be a test of the team as much as anything.
As far as VIR goes, we're right there. If you discount the illegal Cobalt from last year the VW would have been right there.
Looks like the GTI is back! So go dig our all your old GTI shirts and hats and get ready to wave the flag again.
Best of luck with the program Bill. See you in Daytona Wed.

Good job, Bill...
Keep your head down out there. I'm preaching to the choir but there's a lot of potential hurdles for a new effort to clear in a series like GAC, that have NOTHING to do with driving skill, preparation, or organization. (see also, ILLEGAL COBALT; SANDBAGGING; OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT; REWARDS WEIGHT, and BOB STRETCH).

Good luck down there guys, ill watch your runs online.

I heard that the GTI was involved in a pretty bad accident? Is that true?
Hope not and hope the driver is ok.
practice notes from yesterday indicate the car went off in T3 and the driver was taken to medical but ok. T&S has no times for the GTI - listed in last place for today's race
The notes are vauge but since the GTI had not run a session since P1 I think it was done for the weekend. I wish they had audio for the practice and qualifing. Giavones/Moorcones also didnt run in qual but where out there in P2 so I wonder if they had another mechancial problem.

I stand corrected, the teamp posted times in P3, so they may still be in the race.
Lewis was throwing down some good lap times in the 2:12's with 2:10's being the top ST lap times.

It's not exactly riveting coverage...you might not be missing too much.
It looks like the reprts have the GTI making significant contact in practive 1, and the driver, Nuzzo being transported to halifax for observation. THey missed practice 2, and ran in 3, 3.2 seconds or so off the fast runner. But missed qualifying, It looks like Nuzzo wasn't cleared to drive, as the driver listing for the car shows Lewis and Danny Alvis as the drivers.
In ralated IT news, Anthony Serras team, Davis Acura has a car that started 2nd with Bob Endicott posting the fast time. Serras in the race as well, currently running 36th i ST.
THe GTI is up to 21st in ST.

giovanes and moorcones (paul from radial tire) and in 29th but well off the front runners pace. I cannot get the audio feed at work, likely its block.
