Looks like EP is about ready to roll off. (Based on Live Timing and scoring)

I wish we had a way to hear the audio from race control radios during the week.
 
Looks like they had a yellow flag and then an early checker after about 20 minutes to the EP/GTL session

On about the second lap (second lap for me, as GTL leaves after the EP cars), there was a yellow in the kink for a black Lotus 7. The Lotus was on driver's left past the kink and had contact with the wall. One front corner was off of the car, so EV and tow trucks were tending to it. It stayed yellow.

Two or three laps later a waving yellow in the kink had a white, third gen RX-7 sideways in the road. With damage to both front and rear, he must have had contact with the wall(s). With little room to get by (enough, but not much more), the session was black flag ALL. When we got into the pits there was about 5 minutes left in the session, so it was over.

I didn't see any clean laps. I did see a lot of sideways EP cars. Peter
 
I was flagging at T12 yesterday (the kink is T11) so they were just upstream from our station. I saw both cars roll by and both looked like toast. I know the 9 car was done and he's from CA. He was fourth on the grid too. Doernberg (7) has taken the car home but since Chima is on his side, he may fix it and bring it back. I'm told both drivers are OK.

That is Wayne Graham's old car. Josh Carroll is the new driver/owner and was pretty competitve this year in the races that I saw. That is too bad, long way to go to be done on the first day.

I had the opportunity to spend some time with Josh in the Runoffs orientation. He was impressive in how quickly he picked up things. Said he got caught out with the diminished grip in the kink after the rain and thought he was going to be able to ride out going wide, but the wet grass got him rotated and across the track. Lots of damage. Too bad he was definitely going to be a player.

Qual 4 - Looks like it was in the 50's - nice and cool to make power, but a little longer to get heat into the tires. Mark Brakke Jumped to the top of the list on his 2nd timed lap, but then didn't complete another lap. Brother Jon jumped to P1, then Ira, then back to J. Brakke. Ken Shreve was near the top early and did a 2:31.6, which was good enough for 4th in the session. Aaron Downey didn't start setting fast times until late in the session and ended up P2. Jesse didn't make it out. I assume Rob Coffey is not attending the Runoffs this year.

what is going on with Loshak and his DSR? I keep on expecting him to pop up to the top of the list, but something is up.
 
Code: 
7 	1 	Lawrence Loshak 	Grafton, WI 		Stohr 	WF1 Suzuki 	ETE Reman/MoonSupercycle/Goodyear 	No time 	2:05.245 	2:43.482 	2:25.699

Pretty clearly having some problems there.

Lost one motors, broke a drive chain, and lost another motor today. The team is currently back at the shop building another. Should be entertaining to watch him come up through the field.

The attrition of cars this year, in just about every class, is unlike anything I've ever seen before. Everywhere you look, people have been doing A LOT of work to keep their cars on track.

As for the EP race, this one should be awesome to watch.

Great race if you are a duck. The guys showed real skill negotiating the wet conditions.

Halkias coould have counted to one before he let out the clutch on his spin and kept from causing that wreck.
