The 1991 must be one of the best bang-for-buck wins in motorsport. Decades later they can still milk it and anywhere on the internet where there is talk about the car there is someone spreading the conspiracy bullshit myth about the car getting banned, so Mazda doesn't even have to do anything themselves. |

Pirelli World Challenge now has the September date slot at CoTA as well. I could see it paired with WEC, but it seems unlikely with the recent rumors |

Which is funny, because there's no BOP issue with the Porsche. 5 poles this year out of 8 have been set by a Porsche in GTD, and the first and fourth fastest cars during the race at Road America were set by a 911. AJR's other car, the 23, has no issues with being at the front of the field. The two WeatherTech cars that were entered at Road America(22, and 77) have nothing to blame but their slow Am's(both of the MacNiels) for their lack of pace. Breakdown by driver over the past 4 rounds: |
