Well that was boring. GTP qualifying canceled because the track is wet. Most of track looks fine, but some big water puddles in parts.

Kinda figured that would happen, especially when they showed that section pass the esses, it was coming down. First P2 out headed right back for wet tires. Everybody else tip toeing right behind.

At least they were able to get GTD Pro/GTD run. Looks like the Ferrari 296 GT is the car to beat. Risi has a winner on their hands.

Will be interesting to see how it goes tomorrow. Calling for a couple of thunder showers. The cold front that's been sitting over GA for the last week has now moved on and is up in the Glen area.

A couple guys at the track made some on dear God it's raining comments on the IMSA FB page when folks were crying about the pathetic lack of balls of IMSA drivers not driving in some rain, pictures looked a bit dark and wet

And we've got TCR slicks going out
Probably a bit easier to make the call on the FWD platform And then in comes a Murillo car to test slicks on a GS car |

Uh oh, Murillo might get dinged for hitting pit out equipment. And might be dinged for parts too

And the other Murillo car attacking the VDS Aston, wouldn't be surprised to see a drive through there

Well that's a FCY, 2 guys fighting and banging ain't gonna go well there. Looked like that's on the AMG for being a bit too AMG there and that NOLAsport Cayman is a bit pre-owned nose first in the wall

Doubt that 37 is moving anywhere soon and the 1 lost the window. And oh yeah, replay was big side hit
Looks like the 1 and 37 wheels got locked and then directly to the scene of the wreck, 1 slid a bit but wheels right at each other and they both went straight instead of right |
