Event #3 Autocross @ Turfway Park. Wet to drying conditions with tight turns. Didn't favor a turbo lag car. The GT-R of Taylor/Rankijns came in 1st and we were 3rd about a sec back. The AutoX 2nd place Subie is off to get a downpipe welded up.
Next up is a 1/4 mile Oval, if it is not raining, outside Nashville.

1st Ian Stewart GT2
2nd Tom Long GT-R
3rd Will Taylor GT-R

It poured during lunch so the afternoon group went out to a soaking wet track. very unofficial results
1st Will Taylor GT-R
2nd Ian Stewart GT2
3rd Tom Long GT-R
We made a net gain of 5 points fro the event which leaves us 10 points out of 1st and heading to our HOME :thumb: track Sebring. Expect fireworks..

Rankin's is also a friend. We are having a Royal Battle
Today @ Sebring we came in 1st in both sessions with the pesky GT-R of Taylor Rankins 2nd. The morning session 3 lap total from a standing start was 7.00 minutes, a 2:20 lap average with a fast lap of 2:18.7.
Next stop Gainesville, Fl for the ET and Bracket drags. Hopefully we can keep it close to the GT-R.
The overall score is now tied with 10 events to go.

The results are in from Gainesville.
GT2 ran an 11.778 @ 121.98 which was good enough for 3rd. The Taylor/Rankins GT-R ran an 11.3+ @ 127 which was good enough for 2nd and the Whittis GT-R ran an 11.2 @ 126. Neither GT-R did launch control.
Whittis did a launch control run in the Bracket drags and ran a 10.90 @ 126 in the GT-R
Both us and the Taylor Rankins GT-R were eliminated in the 1st round of the Bracket drag.
So going to Daytona the Taylor/Rankins GT-R is in 1st and we are in 2nd 5 points back. This is anet gain of 5 points for us on Tuesday. We are happy as we new we would loose points at the Strip.

Keep that #1 in the Porsche fold
Peter,
You guys are killing me with this close competition ;-)
We've passed our number 1 plate off in good faith that you and Ian will keep the #1 on a Porsche for 2009!
In all seriousness, the competition looks fun between you guys and the Rankins/Taylor GTR. Mark and I saw the GTR this February at CMP during Mark's open track event. He didn't run it at the event, just came up to visit.
Good luck!
