I'll be with the Jerry Woods group. We have 5 garages (I think in the Orion Garages) - stop by and say hello.

Tom, I'll try to stop by. I'll be in the Eurosport paddock, across from start/finish.

Forecast is looking good for any rain-adverse drivers -- lots of sunshine!

And, shameless plug, if anyone is looking for some JRZ' for a 996 GT3 or 996 or 997 cup https://rennlist.com/forums/for-sale...l#post14441146

finally on spc, is that the biggest car count this year??

FFaust

Might be by 1. You coming back?

We were 4 at Mosport, which is good since the overall numbers for the race have been a bit low the last few years; this year was better attended however. 5 at NJMP.

There are at least 3 or 4 known new builds in the wings. Matt expects 20 for next year.



PS Reason for "shameless plug" above for the JRZ' is because I could deliver to RA (should have put that in the post).

Certz, congrats on your completed race car! Awesome.

Hey everyone, be nice to all your volunteer PCA workers this weekend. We accept cash tips and the false grid.

Parade of race cars into town last night got cancelled because of rain. But we did get all 3 practice sessions in before the downpour.

Congratulations to Dan Martinson for new E lap record. 2:32.893 (was 2:33.286).

As usual, a great event with lots of top-flight racing. Big thanks to all our volunteers for selfless work over many days. Then there's the Emergency Crew and Corner Workers at RA. Expert communications, car-saving observations, and many hot extractions, under arduous conditions. Amazing work by a super-professional team. We are lucky to have you all there, having our backs.

An even bigger thanks to all of you, my fellow racers. Had some great racing throughout the weekend with many! This whole thing just doesn't happen without you all dragging yourselves, your cars your gear, and more, out to the track and saddling up.

I trust everyone has a safe journey home and takes with them fond memories.

Thanks,

Thanks to all the volunteers and national staff for a great weekend!
David, I had fun racing with you in the enduro.
I was in that pesky red 944 during the last half.
I would have stayed with you longer but traffic got in the way.
Great fun.

It's always great when the Scruts can focus on compliance checking rather than incident investigation. Looked like the racers in general really looked out for each other and left racing room rather than forcing a pass, especially when lapping cars. Now, a ton of people passing under Yellow is a whole different issue.....

^^^Yeah, fun weekend. However, I got a stop and go penalty after being passed by a silver and blue E car under yellow in turn 5 during the purple enduro while the safety crew was helping out a wreck. How I get a penalty for that is remarkable. Corner worker on the straight between 3 and 5 was frantically waving the yellow. Apparently, passing under yellow goes unpunished...unless you are the car being passed.

The race weekend is big production, for sure. Thanks to all the Chicago Region PCA folks for their hard work.

See you next year at TRAC.

I was a newbie at the track and only doing the DE, but I have to agree, the PCA volunteers did a great job. Overall, the schedule ran like clockwork. And the facility is about the nicest I've ever been to. Only CotA out does it, but then again, F1 doesn't go to Road America.

I'm very much looking forward to coming back. And I hope to find that time I was looking for all weekend! LOL

Dave in Chicago

Pat - Yes, that was great fun. Glad to meet in cyberspace now.

Agree that the passing under yellow was a big problem. Great crews doing hot extractions so we can keep racing means everyone has to be eyes up and compliant. Sorry to hear if they called in the wrong person in error. That's unfortunate.
