Thanks to all who helped make the weekend a great success. Some good, close racing too. G1, with 40-50 cars, didn't even need a safety car!
I know the weekend was not without incident, however. To the turn worker who suffered a broken leg for the safety of a driver, bravo. We need to hand out medals to these folks - something like our version of a purple heart?
For Steve and that little tank of a Subaru -it is fixable, but you are not replaceable. Glad to hear only pain in the a, er, um, treasure trove..? :)
Here is some video from the German touring car race. I am sure Jerold will be posting the G1 race...

PRO-3 Race

Here is my video from Group 1 (PRO-3 race) on Sunday. My snap over-steer during the weekend, was due to an unknown faulty rear shock connection, which became more evident during the race (especially in turn 2,6 and 8); my last 2 laps were pretty hairy, with my right rear shock becoming completely disconnected from the control arm. Save of the day for me at 16:57 :).
Thanks everyone for a great weekend!

Here is a link to the group 4 race from my in car, I was following the Blue Subaru and got a great video of the "front areo adjustment" made at turn 9. I am glad he is safe and well, was enjoying chasing him in my 2nd. area race. I edited out the false starts and caution laps.

Great race Eric! Was a great battle with you and David. Looks like David and I both ended up doing a little off-roading trying to catch you in those last couple of laps. I see you finally took the Acura. Nice work.
 
Here is video of my first Group 5 race. Great duel with Eric Schwenter and David Lightfoot for the entire race. I lost it in T2 in the next to last lap trying to catch up, but did manage to regain composure and get back past David when he had to take the escape road at T3 on the last lap. Great close racing the entire race. Great fun!
