    SCCA was offering free tickets to this event, I wish it was a little closer for me.

    Sorry Steve I typed ST but it came out GT.

    MINI JCW #37 qualifies 7 out of 24 cars at the IMSA Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge races at Mosport Canada with Zack Meyer turning in a 1:33.168 best lap only 0.542 seconds behind the pole setter.

    That's ST.

    Also, I see only the #37 will compete so no surprise it's the only one on the Practice 1 results list.

    #52 had a bad crash at Watkins Glen and the team was unable to get it put back in racing shape in time. Only #37 will be competing this weekend with Zack Meyer and Dan Clarke driving.

    So much yellow! I wonder whether they've had more time under yellow or under green to this point. Here's hoping the last 36min stays green. :fingerscrossed:

    Race won by 16 year old Austin Cindric (and, of course, his more experienced co-driver Jade Buford)! In a new car (Mustang GT350R-C) that won for the first time in only its second race start ever!

    That's impressive.

    The MINI, on the other hand, didn't finish so well at 17th in class. They were running well early on, up to 4th at one point, but there were incidents. Hopefully there will be a summary avail at some point from the team because I'm not sure what all happened to them.
