These first ones are from the Grand-Am Rolex Series Bosch Engineering 250 held there. It was great weather fr a race, 90 degrees outside, nice breeze, sunny…overall a good day. Even with the nice weather the race had it’s moments, basically your typical people overreaching or just loosing it while trying to fight it out with another car. No one really lost it on the roller coaster this year which was a surprise though.
These photos are from the Star Mazda Challenge Series race which was held the same weekend as the Grand-Am race. Again not too much to talk about, one of the drivers went way off track on the final turn on the first lap not sure if he tried to brake late or if the tires were just not holding good due to temp and pressure but for whatever reason it really set him back. There was also an instance where two of them got together by the Oak Tree, was not there to see that one I only got to see the aftermath. Both cars were still drivable but one did need a replacement front nose clip.
