Lime Rock Race

[Indy GT]

Great stuff! I heard Ganassi was there. Ron, did you talk with him about a full time ride?

Sorry, I would have to vote Billy Johnson as a permanent driver in the GT over Ron. Did you see how Billy drove the GT350RC Mustang to P1 in the earlier Lime Rock race? He is REALLY good as was his performance at Le Mans.

Besides Ford’s just drive differently than Ron’s stable of Porsche’s.:rofl

Ah I wish I would have seen this before. I just saw a few of you guys roll into the paddock and figured there would be a post on here. One of the teams I engineer for is C360R, we run the multi colored Shelby GT350R-C in the conti series, which is built by our good friends Multimatic, (who also builds all of the new Ford GT's which I'm sure everyone knows). I wish I would have know sooner, I would have gotten you guys entry, sorry about that. We usually get extra tickets. None the less have fun, our race goes green at 10 am. Go Ford!

Wish I would have known you were there.. it's been awhile !! Internet connections there were horrible !! Tough to get on line !!

Great photos Dave. That's racing. It doesn't always go exactly our way.

Great to see you as well, glad you got to see a bit of New England, and this bullring called Lime Rock.

Lime Rock now GTLM and GTD only for 2017.

Probably best. It was a blood bath. Carbon fiber everywhere.

do you mean only 2 classes will be racing there in 17?

If the opinion approver permits me to have one, that may help cut down on the demolition derby.

A blow to the fans in New England. GTLM seems to be getting too fast for the track.

Yes, they raced with both GT classes and the PC cars this year, but only GT cars next year.

 

[Specracer]

Probably a good descision

Edit, looks like PC is dead period, not just at Lime Rock, in the long run
