We were sitting on the Hillside and who comes walking by.. Ryan Briscoe.. he stopped and chatted with us for a while. .very cordial
 
Nice! I saw he posted a pic of him watching qualifying from the grassy knoll.

It's not a traditional to pass
He genuinely liked the thought
 
Brian,

How come you always find the college girls?

Just a job for summer break I guess.

Probably co-eds from Vassar.

Maybe they have red outfits today for Dr. Frank.
 
Be there in about an hour.
 
Early Cat gets the worm.. sorry guys. We bought all the GT toys available. $6 a piece for a Ford authorized model that looks pretty good we couldn't pass up the whole box..:biggrin. This particular vendor said that's all he has I don't know if there's more.. sorry

Contential Tire Challenge (starting at 10am EDT) looks to be another good one.

Max Miller in a Porsche Cayman GT4 qualified 1st at a 57.458 sec but
Billy Johnson in a GT350RC Mustang is right there at a 57.474 sec and
Paul Horton in the other GT350RC Mustang is 3rd at a 57.811.

For all the BOP drama looks to be a really good match up! Race starts soon on imsa.tv.

Hope all those at Lime Rock hob-knobbing at Lachelle Seymour's drivers signing party actually get to watch some on-track racing....:lol
 
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!
 
Mase,

Very excited to follow the Compass 360 GT car in this series. Very colorful car, easily spotted on the track and VERY worthy cause. We were honored to have your car on display at the Daytona hospitality area in January.

Currently the #15 Billy Johnson Mustang is #1 and your #76 car is #7 with 37 minutes remaining. Good Luck!!
 
Victory! Billy Johnson takes the checkered flag in the GT350R-C for the victory! Great start to the day. Nice driving by Scott and Billy.
 
And as is becoming customary, Billy destroys the tires on the cool down lap. :lol
 
Lower control arm failure ended our day prematurely. We knew something was going on the last few laps of Paul's stint. Thats the way it goes sometimes. Both Scotty and Billy drove a great race. Our teams share data and if you look at Billy's data, he is so consistent, car control is amazing. Combine two great drivers, awesome pitstops and strategy, that's why they are winning, even with the BOP so out of control.
 
Thanks for the update Mase. I saw that soon after my above post with 37 minutes remaining the #76 car was out. I wondered what happened because your car was definitely in the hunt.
Yep, Billy is one heck of a good and consistent driver!
 
Total chaos at the start. PC (previously crashed :bored) knocks bodywork off at the start, caution right off the bat, then Westbrook in the 67 gets banged off the track. Looks like the Risi Ferrari may have bashed him off. :facepalm:
 
BMW crashes and it's FCY. GTs currently P4 and P8 after 7 minutes of total chaos.
 
Figures, just missed the 67 going off from java update.
