Wow. That should be a good race.

I'm pulling for LG, but Fellows at Mosport will be pretty hard to outrun. I wonder if they will get (or have) rain?

Top 6 cars within 3/4 of sec? Dang

Sounds like a : slugfest in the making

Go Lou

Caddys have approx. 1 sec (22's vs 23's) gap over the field. Forecast is for showers Sat. for qual & race.

Just watched the RA race and man Adel's Viper really turned to junk in the accident.

SPOILER-GT RACE RESULT






















Galati ran away with the race (AWD Volvo)

2nd - Archer

3rd - Fellows

4th - Sofronas

5th - Woodhouse

Aschenbach was 6th and LG was 9th. Whelen gets hard charger award going from 21st to 12th

AU N EGL

Fricken RAIN

AWD Volvo takes it and laps EVERY CAR but 2nd place Archer.

joemoia

LG looses 3 points to Aschenbach (6th vs. 9th) in the driver's points. If I've done the math correctly, driver's points are now:

1. Aschenbach - 193

2. LG - 184

3. Pilgrim - 171

4. Imery - 170

That looks right. I'm glad that Aschenback didn't win this race and I'm also glad that Imery or Pilgrim didn't do any better than they did.

If you look at the results page that John posted, it looks like the AWD Volvo just walked away from everyone. Archer was the only one to finish on the same lap and he finished a minute and a half back. If you look at fast lap times, the only driver even close to Galati's times is Ron Fellows. Everyone else was at least four seconds off the pace.

I can't wait to see it on tv.

This does NOT look like fun

Especially without ABS like the vipers. Not sure if the Caddy's have ABS.

At first the rain and AWD Audi didn't click and I was thinking 'when did Audi start sponsoring World Challenge'

The AWD guys always pray for rain
