GT: Sofronas, Aschenbach Score WC Wins At Long Beach
James Sofronas, of Villa Park, Calif., scored an overall and class win in his “hometown” race, taking Round Three of the Pirelli World Challenge Long Beach Grand Prix Presented by KIA. Lawson Aschenbach, of Jupiter, Fla.,[url=http://www.bowlingdelights.com/Canada_Goose_Jakke.html]Canada Goose Jakke[/url], took his, and the Blackdog Speed Shop team’s, first GTS-class win. Andy Pilgrim, of Boca Raton, Fla., and Mike Skeen, of Charlotte, N.C., finished second and third in GT, respectively. Peter Cunningham, of Milwaukee, Wis., and Jack Baldwin, of Marietta,[url=http://www.officefurniturehut.com/Canada_Goose_coats.html]Canada Goose coats[/url], Ga., completed the top-three in GTS. Driving the No. 14 GMG/Mobil 1 Audi R8, Motul Polesitter Sofronas lost the lead early, but stayed near the front of the pack heading into the waning laps of a race, at the 11-Turn, 1.968-mile street course. A full-course caution came out on Lap 27,[url=http://www.nothingbuttruth.com/canadagoosejackets.html]canada goose jackets[/url], of the 31-Lap, 61.01-mile race,[url=http://www.fieg.it/Scripts/salastampa_gailleria.asp]moncler uomo[/url], for then-leader Alex Figge suffered a brake rotor failure, pitching his No. 9 K-PAX Racing Volvo S60 into the turn one wall. At that point Johnny O’Connell assumed the lead behind the pace car,[url=http://www.everything-dallascowboys.com/Cheap_NFL-Jerseys.html]Cheap NFL Jerseys[/url], needing to finish only two laps under caution for the win. As the field approached the white flag, small wisps of smoke came from the No. 3 Cadillac Racing Cadillac CTS-V.R as it navigated Turn 10. After passing the line and making it through four turns,[url=http://www.luxurygoodstore.com/Moncler_Coats.html]Moncler Coats[/url], the smoke increased and the car came to a rest after turn five, less than a lap before the checkered flag would be displayed. After the race, the Cadillac crew discovered a three-inch piece of steel lodged in O’Connell’s radiator, presumably from Figge’s car. O’Connell’s retirement promoted Sofronas to the lead and the win. “The car’s obviously been running strong, and is very competitive,” Sofronas said. “We are there at the end. Like the first two races [at St. Petersburg], we just wanted to be there to fight for a good finish. And then, coming to Long Beach, pretty much accepting a third place. At the end, our car actually got better. At the beginning of the race I just didn’t have enough front grip, and I was struggling to hit my marks. And it was kind of how we set up the car,[url=http://www.dormgrow.com/Men_Moncler_Jackets.html]Men Moncler Jackets[/url], but I expected it to come to me a little sooner in the race. “Then, when we had the restart, I thought that was our chance. I closed up on Johnny and then Figge. Johnny and I had a good battle. I think we had three laps we were nose to tail. We were just waiting for something to happen and boy, did something happen. “Obviously, Figge just all of a sudden going into Turn One, loses it and bounces off the wall, I am literally looking left and right around Johnny’s Caddy, deciding where to go. And then I noticed a sheen of oil through Turn One and I saw Figge fly off. And there was debris everywher bar end mirror e. When I got through Turn One, I ran over shrapnel, carbon fiber bits, there was junk everywhere. And I kind of just wanted to tippy toe through it. And then, I noticed Johnny’s car blowing water out the side. And I thought ‘well he just ran over something and popped a radiator.’ I thought when we would go back to green, he was going to have issues. And then once I got the lap count at the end, I realized race is over, this is great I’m going to podium, second place, can’t ask for more. And then the next thing I know, Johnny’s car is smoking out the side pipes and I am giving our guys a play by play saying ‘this thing is smoking a bit more, I’m seeing a little oil come out. I don’t think he’s going to make it.’ Then all of a sudden boom! He pulled over, and I kind of slowed down and took a look at him and said, is this really happening. I’ve never won a race in this style,[url=http://www.ucons.com/cheap-canada-goose-jackets.html]canada goose jackets[/url], but it’s a testament to the GMG guys.” As a result of O’Connell’s retirement,[url=http://www.vestadesign.co.nz/Moncler_Sale.html]Moncler Sale[/url], his teammate Pilgrim ended up second in the No. 8 Cadillac Racing Cadillac CTS-V.R. Pilgrim also scored the Invisible Glass Clean Pass of the race, for his pass on Skeen. “Johnny hit some debris,” Pi yamaha racing parts lgrim said. “I think Alex [Figge] spun in some oil going into Turn One. Really unlucky for the K-PAX guys. When Alex hit the tires [in Turn One] it jettisoned some junk and some of that went through Johnny’s radiator and unfortunately that was clutch lever what cost Johnny the win. “For Cadillac, I’m really glad I’m here. We got a second place. It was a strange race. It was just a strange race. Congrats to James on the win. We were kind o adjustable Levers f like Mike [Skeen], we were thinking top five. Second place for us was a real bonus.” Skeen completed the podium in the No. 2 Hawk Performance Chevrolet Corvette. Skeen had an excellent jump on the start from his eight place starting spot getting up to third on the first lap. Skeen then battled with O’Connell and then Pilgrim as the Cadillacs made their way to the front of the pack. “I think we were about sixth place going into turn one, went side by side with Andy [Lee] and he gave me plenty of room, thanks for that,” Skeen said. “We went clean the whole race, and just took what we could get. We had a few guys have issues in front of us. We just kind of inherited a good podium finish. Even going into the last couple of laps, we thought a top five was all we could hope for, but fortunately with Johnny [O’Connell] having troubles on the last lap we lucked into a podium finish for the Hawk Performance Corvette.” Duncan Ende, of Los Angeles, set a new record for fastest race lap with a 1:22.030 (86. motorcycle performance parts 368 mph) en route to picking up Street Bike Levers fourth position in the No. 24 STANDD.org/Merchant Services Audi R8. Bret Curtis, of Westlake Village, Calif.,[url=http://www.fieg.it/moncler_uomo.asp]moncler uomo[/url], was the final part of a GMG majority near the top of the standings in fifth. Curtis, in the No. 32 United Steel Supply/Spect adjustable handle ra Resources Audi R8 was motorcycle accessories online the third of the team’s R8s to occupy a top-five finishing position.
