GT's are racing this weekend at Road America/Continental Tire Challenge! As DBK says, "fast track, good for the GTs." Race duration is short though at 2 hours 40 min. Qualifying is critical in my opinion for a race this short. Regardless, hoping CGR/Ford Performance continue this unbelievable run since Laguna Seca!

Never thought I would see a Ford Supported GT Race program in my lifetime. So good!! Go Blu!!

Go Ford whup so arse!
 
Front straight is long, as is the run down to turn 5. Our cars should fly through the "kink". Hopefully aero advantage will come into play.
 
FYI practice 1 now running, live on IMSA radio.

Ford GT should be well suited to this track, probably second only to Le Mans. And, they have great brats!

Hopefully, we don't get a carload of boat anchors from BoP.

Awesome win by for the Multimatic GT350R-C in CTSC. Billy Johnson barely nursed it home and then celebrated with a massive smoking drift through the carousel. :lol
 
66 takes the pole, 67 in P3. Dirk blew it away.

66 remains on the pole but 67 moved to the back of the field for a ride height infraction. Both BMWs also moved to the back for overboost infractions.
 
Cant wait to watch the race!
The Ford GT has put spark the IMSA race program. The worldwide fascination with the new GT is a wonderful thing!
When we were at Limerock you could clearly see it was the most popular car in the paddock.
As well in the parkinglot!
GO BLUE!
