IMSA - GT's Racing at Road America


Ya think that big, outdated, front engine, bloated, yellow porker has a HP and weight advantage?:bow to the BOP.
 
The scrum may have dirtied the Ford's tires in the marbles. Vette hooked up better, and that was it. Good podium. This stuff is better viewing than F1.

Vette pulled him on the uphill straight. Nothing but HP came into play.
 
Yeah, can't blame Corvette. They were just opportunistic. Vilander hits Westbrook, Vilander hits Tandy, Vilander hits the Mazda. The Risi car runs the Porsche off into the dirt earlier in the race.

Clowns.
 
"We had nothing for the Corvette as he just drove by me at the end". Westbrook
 
Westie interviewed post race. "Power cost them the victory". We got BoP'd.
 
Tough finish still GT is the car you have to best.
 
A Sad Happy ending
 
Things have gotten very personal between Risi and Ford.

Considering Ford has 5 consecutive podiums with 3 wins and Risi has none of the above, it's easy to see why.
 
What did I tell ya! Totally Chicken Shit driver and team. Corvette hung back knowing what Ferrari would do to the leaders, regardless what could and did happen to him and corvette accelerated at the last minute with power to pass all the confusion to win. No Love loss toward the end of this season. We are going to see a fantastic race at Rally 11 in Austin, Texas at COTA. Can't wait. GO BLUE and WATCH YOUR BACK ALWAYS!!!!!!! Risi is grasping for a win and points at any cost.
 
Race Results ... another podium for Ford.

Risi/Vilander need to knock it off before they kill someone!

we need a couple pounds of boost back as well cant come out of the turns properly.
 
Best part of the race at the end was watching the Ferrari spin out, too bad he saved it! Go Blue!
 
Westbrook defended incredibly after the restart. Risi certainly going for broke. Heartbreaking second but second none the less. Well done CGR/Ford Performance. Nail biting final 3-4 laps.

Congratulations to the France family for developing another racing series befitting the NASCAR heritage - IMSA has become a logical brand extension. Took 'em half a year, but they're able to find a formula that keeps ancient technology on par with any current technology - at least until GM is able to launch a successful new 'Vette anyway. Teams on the forefront should be looking to recruit NASCAR drivers who are much more adept at the 'rubbin', is racin' style of motorsport. It's really sad.

Westy got more than BOP'd.
 
 
If he really lost a turbo, I can only conclude he must have been running waste gate open (naturally aspirated) anyway, he sure didn't lose much ground for loss of a turbo.

That's what I was going to say. Pretty funny/sad how losing a turbo only cost him a tiny bit of speed.
