The M3's have the best lap times so far...one team actually broke the 2:00 mark with a 1:59. The E92 M3's are probably in my best guess are going to win it this year now that they ditched the E46 M3 with the S54 powerplant for the high revving V8. Pretty much removed the Mustangs hp advantage with the 5.0L Cammer motor and now the Coyote. Grand Am is going to have to rethink the restrictor plates on the Mustangs.

The best finishing Mustang was the #37 GT that came in 4th. The best finish by a Boss was the #16 at 49th (down 7 laps). Looks like they have some sorting to do, but still can't wait to see them tearing it up.

Camaro did better than expected. Looks like the Challengers aren't offering much of a challenge. Should have been a 'Cuda instead. Hope this series doesn't turn into a US DTM.

Looks great for the photo op, but there went the lap time.

Two things I learned from racing at the track:

Slow in Fast out... Fast in Spin out
Gotta Stick to be quick.

My pictures from the weekend didn't turn out as well as I hoped but here are a few.

The last picture unfortunatly shows the quality of welds in the new 302R. Looks a lot like our FR500C did.

That rear coilover setup is sweet...the only other one I've seen so far that has adjustable ride height is the Roush/KW kit, but the springs are still in the same place as the factory spring perch, just they have adjustable height perches. This is a true coilover setup!
