    Watkins Glen is next. The team is scrambling to get the cars ready for Wednesday's practice having just completed Lime Rock 3 days ago. BAck to back races are always high stress on the crews.

    Driver Line Up:

    195 VJ Mirzayan and Chris Sarian
    196 Ron Farmer and Jason Hart
    198 (197) Owen Trinkler and Sarah Cattaneo

    The 198 was heavily damaged at Lime Rock so the 197 will be substituted. Yours truly gets to sit this one out. :(

    Watkins Glen is an old school very fast track that does not suit the Mini's capabilities. However, we have done well in the past and hope that race strategy and consistancy will rule the day.
