Default Road Atlanta Club Race Group A Enduro Results?

Now Mylaps.com and PCA website both have results posted with no Group A enduro #s.

I know I sucked and that there was confusion with the timing, just wondering if there ever will be any official results posted?

During the double yellow for Chris's off, the pace car picked up P2 instead of P1. You have to assume that T&S had some sort of glitch to cause this and when they realized the error during the pace laps and brought the field in the hot pits. The error was simple to fix, let everyone past the pace car and pickup the leader. The happens often in racing. Based on the shuffling on pit lane, I believe that T&S did not know what had happened, but that the current situation (on pit road) was not right. To further complicate matters, if a car was in the pits from prior to the double yellow, what happens to them? Where are they?

At this point, maybe the results can be posted in car number order so we can see fast lap times as some of us may have a personal best.

I thought something was funny when we were behind the pace car and there was no older red car ahead of me... yes they should have just waved everyone by the pace car till (you?) were behind it.

One peeve I have at this and the last few PCA races... pace car speed on the pace lap. In SCCA and most races, once people are on the track, the pace car SPEEDS UP so we can warm the tires, engine, etc. In Atlanta (and a few others), the pace car was going so slow that my car would almost stall and I needed to use 1st gear. Get moving, please!!! Then slow down a few corners before the start and people will line up.

I agree with the pace car comments. I completely stopped twice each pace lap due to the slow pace car speed.

Mike, I am just trying to keep the torch aflame for all the air cooled guys with that car. Long live the air cooled motor!

We were watching the race between 3 and 4 when the pace car came by one time. As cars were going up to turn 5, they had to stand on the brakes to prevent hitting each other. Cars were stopped and it looked like I-285 on a Friday afternoon for a minute...

Kudos to the PCA team for getting it all fixed up.

Damn my black flag hurt worse than I expected.

23:07 * A computer error occurred during the race preventing normal scoring. These results are based on a 23:07 later recreation of the race from available data. These results are the best information we can 23:08 provide under the circumstances and may contain minor errors.
