Robert Stout, of Brownsburg, Ind., battled for a hard-fought win during Sunday’s World Challenge Touring Car race, part of the Victoria Day Speedfest Presented by Optima Batteries at Mosport International Raceway.
For the second-straight day, the Touring Car class put on a nose-to-tail race battle in which point leader Stout came out on top to record his second-career victory. (continue reading…)
Excellent performance by Todd Buras in the Irish Mike’s Vokswagen Jetta over last weekends Touring car races. Todd’s start was a bit off seeing he was in reverse, but soon rallied up to fist with some nice moves and yellow flags later. Irish Mike has been racing in the Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge with promising results as well. We are also super excited to see more Volkswagen on the line.

That didn’t last long! Right from go the No. 06 car started smoking and then stopped on the front straight with a fire. Oil was left all over. In the end qualifying was stopped and will be based off of the combined practice times.
With that said, it leaves Brandon Davis / Ford Mustang Cobra on pole. Does that suck or what! To follow that up, Randy Pobst / Porsche 911 GT3 put the K-Pax Racing into 2nd! Michael Galati, in his K-Pax Porsche took 7th.
The SPEED Touring Car race will go green at 11:05 a.m. (EDT) tomorrow, March 14.
The SPEED GT race will go green at 4:40 p.m. (EDT) tomorrow.
SPEED GT qualifying is scheduled to begin at 11:50 a.m. (EDT). Weather is 72F and sunny in Sebring. The SPEED GT qualifying lap record at Sebring is a 2:07.679, set last year by Doug Peterson. Brandon Davis was fastest in yesterday’s practice, turning a 2:10.382.
We don’t have official word from STaSIS but it doesn’t look like they are competing in the Touring Class this year. Qualifying for TC has finished up with Seth Thomas taking his first pole. No. 43 Kleinubing will start second. No. 44 Wittmer and No. 42 Cunningham will complete the second row on the grid.
Getting under way shortly will be the GT class. There is a good number of Porsche’s this year, so we will be keeping an eye on them to dominate!
This is a bit later than we wanted. March is around the corner! 12 Hours of Sebring is now 16 days away!
Completed! but now we need to add the Le Mans Series! We have but two to finish, the Grand Am Rolex Series and the KONI Challenge Series. They really don’t get going until May but it should be up by evening.
These will be updated as needed. Track, dates, times, PDF schedules and more (varies).
We are also working with our creative, STRENGTH interactive, on a special mobile concept! Stay tuned on that one!
Head on over to the Calendar’s page and get your dates in place. Set your TiVo’s! Don’t forget to show your significant other!
