GT
CBR900RRR {R} - Avoidable Contact - Penalty 5 Point Penalty and 2 Race Probation - Lap 1 Turn 2 - CBR900RRR {R} has avoidable contact with ROCBOTM {R}.
MrGRiMP {R} - Warning – Lap 1 Turn 2 Minor contact with MotoYeti {R} causing minor damage. The contact was at such a slow speed there should have been no damage. A contributing factor was that MotoYeti {R} slowed to less than 30mph for turn 2 with no car close in front of him.
MTBVator {R} – Warning – Lap 5 between Turn 1 and Turn 2. CBR900RRR goes wide after turn 1 and goes slightly into the sand trap, while behind him MTBVator {R} is carrying momentum through turn 1 into turn 2. It appears MTBVator {R} was caught off guard by the slowed pace of CBR900RRR and tried to avoid the contact by going wide left as CBR900RRR recovered. However MTBVator {R} was not able to completely avoid the contact and slightly clips the left rear of the Ferrari 458 with the front right of his Corvette ZR1.
ClownNinjaUSMC, Manuel CR {R} – Race Incident – Lap 3 Tetre Rouge just prior to Muslanne Straight. R3troD goes off course wide left and has to slow to avoid the wall thus allowing Manuel CR {R} to close the gap quickly. As R3troD returns to the track to enter the straight Manuel CR {R} has to brake to avoid hitting R3troD thus causing his Ascari to get loose and squirrely in the corner. As Manuel CR {R} recovers from the brief loss of control in Tetre Rouge ClownNinjaUSMC takes the opportunity to attempt a pass on the inside of Manuel CR {R}, the two have door to door contact and the two cars become briefly locked together repeatedly bumping until Manuel CR {R} is bumped onto a twinky which upsets the car further and sends his Ascari around and backwards into the wall sustaining heavy damage. All of this was just one big chain of events and incidents that could have been avoided had the involved racers just exercised a bit of patience. It was lap 3 and the final turn before a nice long straight…Both series Officials believe had the drivers just eased up maybe 5% made it through the corner and had a run down the straight all cars would have got through cleanly instead of heavy damage on the Ascari of Manuel CR {R} and ClownNinjaUSMC thus ruining the race early for both.
There were a couple of other light contact noted but no mention is needed as they were minor race incidents.
