The Corvette Racing Team had a dreadful time at Mosport
A successful outcome at a favored circuit was anything but for the Corvette racing team.
By all accounts the “magic set-up” eluded the engineers and crew in a futile effort to challenge the Germans.
The team finished next-to-last and last in GTLM.
The championship is at stake with work to be done for Lime Rock, 2 weeks away. And oh! by the way, the folks at IMSA also added 10kg of weight.
Earl Bamber won for Porsche which has taken 5 out of 6 races….
John Edwards in his BMW scored 2nd
Marcel Fässler stood in for the disabled Tommy Milner, injured left hand in first lap crash at Watkins Glen.
Results compiled by Wayne Ellwood.
Observation: Recall the Corvette dropped back to GT2 midway 2009 after driving out their challengers in GT1. Turned out a smart move. GTD might be the answer with GTLM next year left to just Porsche & Corvette.
