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. |

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. |

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... |

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 Last edited by TF110; 21 Jul 2014 at 19:59. |

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'... |

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)! |

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.

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