Some great, competitive, heads up racing by all who participated in the Yellow Group. Generally nice clean passing, situational awareness was good, slower cars let faster cars by....thanks to all. CVR does a bang up job with this event.

I assume we all struggled with the left side tires falling off and the car pushing like a pig. I guess this is to be expected when all you do is turn right!

Opps I did not see you. Our race was an exercise in your ability to drive tires that were gone. The track was hot and the tires did not last more than the first few laps.

Lots of fun.

There is a thread on Facebook under "Deman Motorsport" posted by Rick about the loss of his crew member if anyone cares to post condolences.

Great race weekend and really enjoyed racing in a new class. The talent in GTC-3 is just a wee bit intimidating. I was glad to get the seat time in a race setting to appreciate how special the Cups are. Lots to learn if I have any chance to be competitive. Savenor, Scotto, Boyer and Farrell are amazingly and certainly set the bar high.

It was great to see some old friends and race under incredible conditions.

My apologies to Farrell and Benz for holding them up in sprint 2. I was waiting for the inevitable pass and my missing a down shift into Big Bend was the signal to get out of their way.

Glad I'm not the only one who experienced the greasy feel. I thought it was just my lousy driving skills in a rear engine car.

Brian, it was great seeing you again. Congrats on a good two races. We were biting our nails until you passed that 911. See you at the Glen...
