Make it a sure thing by including 'vettes in there.

Might as well throw caution to the wind and include subbie STIs with canards, cheap digital lap timers, and bottom barrel track insurance.

- Like riding high horses
- Don't like getting passed
- Secretly envy 911 cup car drivers (any generation)
- Secretly envy Miata drivers because they have almost as much fun as GT3 drivers at a fraction of the cost

Now we need to know more about Mustang drivers.

Unfortunately the DE was black flagged before a winner could be determined, but GT3 was ahead when the black flag came out

GT3 penalized three positions for failing to give a point-by.
