Race

Trembaly in 6th place, passes Porche now in 5th.

Fights against Corvette in corner...

Out handles Vette and she runs smack into the wall.

Full corse caution and then there off again and now he's in 4th!

He's in third now.

Go for the championship. He needs the point.

Edwards now running ~12 sec. faster, but tires are starting to go away!

Porche's just took each other out. One with suspension damage.

Who'd have thought a Pontiac G6 would be a tougher opponent than the GT3's?

Yeah...........for awhile there he was getting close to that 2nd place car and then the tires just were all used up. I was impressed that on about the last three laps he was able to keep it from spinning out. That thing was breaking loose all over the place!

Sadly, looks like Speedsource is out of the championship. Still, kudos to Sylvain for keeping that car on the track those last 2 laps.

yeah i have to agree with the porsche making a pass for second and the 8 falling a place back (5th?) all on the last lap but it was a great race.

They said there will be new car models and more mazdas for next years season...anyone have more news on this?
