The race for 3rd is getting tight!!! Catesby Jones in the M3 made up 15 points on us in the morning session and, unofficially, another 5 in the afternoon session to come within 15 points overall of 3rd. The only event left is the "dry" skid pad tomorrow. (I quote dry as it's supposed to rain) If we finish like we started at the wet skid pad we will end up tied! The race is definitely on.
Session went alright today. We are very tired and it is having an affect on our performance. We were forced to change front rotors this morning as some pretty severe cracks had formed. We have been suffering from a problem the last day or so as well with heat soak. Seems like the car was losing quite a bit of power after the first lap. Today we found out why; we had lost two bolts on the DP to the turbo and exhaust gasses were blowing out onto the TMIC. After installing a couple replacement bolts the car was back to full power after the first lap and pulled hard easily through the third. Wish we would have figured that out yesterday as it really could have helped us.
As of now, we are back in our home state of Ohio on I-80 heading towards South Bend. We are going to make a stop in Toledo to visit my family for a bit and get some food, then it's on to our final destination.
