Looks like they'll get an addition to end the season with an HART/RealTime with an assist from MSR NSX with Mario Farnbacher at the wheel.

Fuentes GTA Ferrari 488 GT3 is another late withdrawal, along with the previously announced Parker Chase Audi R8 LMS and Yuki Harata's Lamborghini Huracan GT3. So that only leaves David Askew in the Mercedes AMG GT3 as the sole GTA entry!

My brother, my Dad and I just got back from New York early this morning. I really enjoyed the event. It was cool to get to see the Watkins Glen circuit for the first time.
Pure dominance from Rodrigo Baptista, that Bentley was really hooked up all weekend! The Flying Lizard victory in GTS-A race 2 was sweet! That was intense, it felt a lot longer than 50 minutes. |

Fixed it for ya. I'm amazed at the lack of interest for this whole race weekend and that not one person congratulated Mike Hedlund on winning in GTS-A. Obviously nobody cares enough about the series any more due to the lack of posts. |

I actually meant to and then got side tracked and forgot.... so belated happy victory Mike!
Does this mean you might be back next year? I know you alluded to this being your last PWC race. |
