Hey everyone, unfortunately looks like I have to sit this race out. Wife has a work commitment so I have to be dad for the evening. Too bad, this is a fun track! See you all at monza then!

I knew there would be a day when I could finally beat my teammate!!

 

[Carsten Quint]

Hopefully I will make this one. Been struggling to make races the last few weeks. Covering for my dad at work, so I haven't had time to practice and been a bit sleep deprived. Tried to race here on Tuesday in the GTEs but kept nodding off during practice.

Man, lap 11 was a rough one for Christopher H.  After getting caught up in Jim's spin, I smoked his right rear.  Oddly enough, I had a 4X for contact, but no damage.  That's a failed physics model if I've ever seen one.  Shortly after, I'm pretty sure Tyler had a fatal accident as he ended up in the woods, launching off CH's wheel.  See 4:08 mark in the video.  Sorry I wasn't able to avoid you, Christopher.

Tyler, thanks for putting that video together.

No problem. It bounced me straight to the pits with a 2 min tow. I used my fast repair and managed a P5 finish right behind Dany and Jim... the unfortunate part was missing my pit window by 2 laps so I had to stop for a splash with ~15min left. Jim was ahead but had to pit with 3 laps left. I tried to push and he came out 2sec ahead with Dany not far ahead of him. Couldn't catch them but it was fun to try.

I just realized that video didn't have sound! Damn!
