Due to the postponing of the INDYCAR race#1. Tomorrow schedule will be rearranged.
It sounds like PWC race #2 will be moved up to a 9:20 (Eastern) start time.

Might be good to keep an eye on the schedule in case it changes again.

Replay of race 2 is already on their YouTube channel.

If you haven't seen it, I won't give away the result but check it out, it is a stunning race, better than yesterday's.

It also showcases the argument for rolling starts in the series, much cleaner opening lap.

pederb has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Wonder if there is any other differences between the two Vipers in the race except the drivers? There was quite a difference in the race

Doubtfully. But Kuno had an srt engineer from the gte program work with him. Probably just that and Knox being an amateur driver.

Was about to say 'they must be' but the car isn't actually GT3 homologated, is it?

Yes, indeed. Great race. Would have liked to see the race go longer, especially the particular two that were racing harder than most!

I'm a huge Viper fan. I can't help but think they have 150%accomplished their goal of a one off SCCA race to showcase the new GT3R or SCCA was paid to give the car some...leeway let's say. If the former than I really won't understand how worldwide teams won't be chomping at the bit to get one of these cars.

Nope, they got 60kg weight break and 2mm restrictor break...

Good for Dodge, SRT and Canada! And us Viper fans of course!

Hope we'll see more Vipers soon, especially in Pro (non GTA) but hopefully without 'introduction breaks'.

What happened with Leitzinger and Der Prinz in race 1 - all I saw was a destroyed Lambo and a damaged Bentley...

Bentley tries a pass, gets chopped, Lambo brakes early to defend, contact, Lambo in the barrier, Bentley with damaged front end.

I don't think they had a car at the SRO-BoP-Test... and there's still none running in a full on GT3 series, so I don't think there has been a need to have it fully homologated yet.

60lbs., not kg 2860 - 2800lbs.; 38mm x 2 - 40mm x 2. This revision was done on June 18 btw. So it wasnt a special bop for Dodge to race their Viper and win.

Theres a Viper GT3 racing in Europe with team Race Art http://twitter.com/teamraceart

True on weight, not too used to those funny values you use there

However while the pdf says June 18 but on the appendix A update page it's marked as July 11 publication (and v78 July 8th) so I take that to meant to be post-RA BoP adjustment, ie 'special'...

Right, but they are racing in Super Car Challenge which is run to a power-to-weight-formula not to actual GT3-rules.

Thx.

Some decent royal zigzagging there, no wonder it ended in tears...

Hope PWC puts the prince on probation at least (if he were to come back)!

The Road America race was the friday June 20, saturday June 21st weekend. Its reasonable that the bop updates were for that race and the pdf was released in July. It wasnt just a Viper that got a break. Porsche was -50lbs. Caddy was given +130lbs. Dan Knox in the GT-A Viper isnt winning races but the Porsche just did

Not directly, but it can run in SCC without the homologation. Which I'm pretty sure it doesn't have. I hope this success encourages them to consider getting it for 2015 in order to try to sell a few cars.

Being on a straight with walls made it even move obvious! Has to be some type of action against the driver on that.

I can only find talk about it on racer.com and jalopnik.com, saying its been homologated. Not sure how accurate those are.
