Great night of racing as usual at FRC despite small driver turnout. Was good to see Luke B. back in action at FRC. Note: his absence for quite a while has not diminished his competitiveness one bit ! It is always nice to see new machinery and Luke B.'s Corvette was such a car. Gordon's extensively re-engineered Ferrari F430 is very interesting but could use some tweaking. I'm sure it will be a formidable machine when sorted.
Congrats to Jon on winning GT and to Luke B. on winning American Muscle and LMP as well as taking the night's overall win.
Looking forward to the next event.
