A few of us from Corvettes of Hilton Head went to the race this week. The rain added a real twist to the races and the resulting "carnage" on Friday was incredible. The most fun was watching Ron Fellows chase down a Porsche in a Cadillac-CTS-V in the GT race to end Friday. The man can drive in the wet.
Here are a few pics from the race:

I watched some of it yesterday while working in the garage.

It's just a shame they can't come up with more than 3 entries for GT1 on one of the premier road courses in the country

Looks like there was a great turnout of Vette owners tho

I had a great time at the race and it was even better to be a guest of the C6R race team.
Here are some pics from the weekend.
