Great weekend and good to see you.

I tried to use PTPA on my next to last session, but it never started for some reason, so I didn't try again. I'll get the new one and try that.

Not sure if you saw the guy in the gray S2000 go off (2nd session Sunday) at turn 10, but I was right behind him and probably got it on video. Looked decently bad for the second I saw it, but he apparently drove it back to the pits. I was talking to him earlier, and he has a 718 GT4 at home.

I saw that car in the pits, lost his back bumper but seemed in good spirits. T10 always gets someone, lifting is not an option there.
