Pirelli World Challenge Rounds 18 and 19: Sonoma
Just a week after the races at Miller Motorsports Park, the Pirelli World Challenge GT, GTA, GT Cup and GTS classes return to action at Sonoma.
Sonoma should hopefully see the return of the K-Pax Flying Lizard McLarens after the boost limit issues in Utah. The GTA class includes the return of 10-Tenths' Mike Hedlund in his Ferrari. The GTS class has several extra entries, specifically Gainsco's Hyundai Genesis for Jeff Harrison, Paul Holton's Compass 360 Audi, Kevin Marshall in a Lotus Evora GT4 and three TRG Aston GT4s for new drivers Jason Alexandridis and Peter Ludwig, and one for returning driver Derek DeBoer.

Others entered, who missed last weekend's races at MMP, include James Sofronas (GMG Audi), Henrik Hedman (DragonSpeed MBZ SLS) and Christina Nielsen (TRG Aston Martin). Also Renger Van Der Zande will replace Ryan Dalziel, who is on WEC duty this week for ESM at the Nurburgring, in the Effort Racing Porsche.

That would be great!
And with 30ish cars in both GT(A) and GTS that's quite evenly balanced as well (but still no reason to run them apart at Road America! ) |

If anyone is going to the races in person, please stop by and say hi! Just ask one of the crew guys to find me if you don't see me standing around.
Also, if you're following me on twitter your name will be on the car for both Sonoma and Laguna Seca (vinyl already made, so no need to follow me now if you weren't already). I'll try to get some good pictures of it. -mike |
