The ROAR before the 24 @ Daytona
Been following the Conti Practice:
- looks like the good old Rum Bum 997 is beating the new Cayman Gt4 Clubsports by a good margin
- Rick DeMan is running a 6 speed GT4 in GS quite well
- ST looks like a Cayman invasion
- GS field is quite small (realize some teams are testing elsewhere)
I realize that there are a lot of games being played with sandbagging to influence the BOP adjustments but nevertheless.....

-Rick's doing fine, but he's at a high :59, 5th out of 7th last session Saturday.
-Yes. GO, NLE! Concerned about Jonsin's team, though.
-Manufacturer's war has injured GS badly. Front running folks (except for Maxwell and his crowd) didn't want to play and several multi-car teams and drivers have moved up in IMSA or laterally into another series...
How about Rob Slonaker!

GTD is AWESOME! Top FIFTEEN within less than a second! Six marques, GT3 R in third.

-I would expect that initially, but the last practice had Marcelli's GT4 CS RIGHT behind Scott Maxwell's overall leading Mustang, BOTH in the high 1:57's... The new car WILL be quicker.
-Rick's doing fine, but he's at a high :59, 5th out of 7th last session Saturday.
-Yes. GO, NLE! Concerned about Jonsin's team, though.
-Manufacturer's war has injured GS badly. Front running folks (except for Maxwell and his crowd) didn't want to play and several multi-car teams and drivers have moved up in IMSA or laterally into another series...

Thanks Peter. Let's hope our luck of staying on top of the ST lead board continues into the race weekend! Our #38 Cayman was the best it has ever been!
