Also, thanks to all the racers that made me feel welcomed on and off track. Specially to Steve Katz, Jim Hambling, Richard Glickel, Jason Judd, and Don Schneider for sharing valuable track and racing advice to help me in my first visit to LRP, and to SpeedWerk-NY to let me have a little corner on the paddock next to their compound.

Can't wait for the Rolex weekend!
Pablo, nice racing with you this weekend. I along with my Speedwerk NY buddies will be at the Rolex in two weeks so come park with us in the paddock again. Always a great group of people at the Lime Rock race, a class act!

Thanks Doug! Great racing with you as well. Raced hard but super clean. Beautiful car though even though I hated seeing it in front! :-)

Thanks to all the (95?) CVR volunteers at the race, you guys make it all possible! Was a great time with good friends, can't wait for the Glen!

Special thanks for Ernie J.'s heads up driving and not collecting me after I looped it entering Big bend in front of him!

ha, in the 2nd race i was in front for about 2 laps and then you left me in the dust! Rolex will be fun to mix it up with all classes on the track together.

Next time I am throwing an anchor line through your passenger window as you blow by me yet again at the green! LOL... You, Jim (10), and Andrew (69) were one mad freight-train at the greens... quiete abusive on my poor little 205hp 968 with the rookie X on the back!!!! No respect! LOL... Great stuff.

Rolex will be another huge learning experience for me as I have not had much exposure at driving with 80% of my attention on everything from Cup Cars to you guys through my rear view mirrors lap after lap..... Just dont lap me more than once please...

i think you should do the test and tune day on thursday and see if Seth Thomas is available for coaching. He will also drive your car and give you help with set up. I used him two years ago at the Rolex and it was pretty useful. went over and compared data and you can really see the difference where time is lost on the track.

Great to get out for the weekend and run with everyone.
Pablo, your car is spectacular!
Anyone getting Katz to raise his game please stop! His bar is plenty high.
Ernie had a hell of a run from the back, perhaps aided by yellows, but his pass on me was super clean and professional.
Here's some highlights from where I was sitting:

Likewise! PCA racing at its best.

I can't believe they wouldn't let him run SP3 with you Frank.

Frank - have a snippet of that great outside pass under braking I went for in Big Bend in Sprint #1? I think Rich H. was behind us but not sure if he has video..

Just a lowly spectators POV...beautiful facility...great and friendly volunteers (CVR PCA). My eyes were on the white group...very fun to watch with many talented Rennlisters in the field. Hard to miss battles in the front as well as others within the race field were fierce and clean. As usual...nice driving and fun to watch. Amazing to see how close 3 vastly different models (911sc in D, 987 in spbox, and 951 in sp3) ran neck and neck.

A special thanks to Van and many other sp2 guys for helping me with 944 track car purchasing pointers...very nice group of folks.

Mike

Here's race one and two, along with my hot lap from qualifying. Was truly an awesome event, thanks to all those that put in the countless hours to make it happen.
