<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">“I thought I would finish third today, but Altenburg had a problem and Mike fell back,” said Kleinubing, who is now just one point behind Auberlen in the Drivers’ Championship. “I don’t think Bill wanted to win today. He moved through the field and then just kind of stayed behind me.”
Auberlen, who absolutely dominated Round One at Sebring International Raceway in March, could only manage eighth on the grid after opting not to participate in Thursday’s test day and Friday’s wet practice sessions, but kept his point lead by moving up to second.
“The REWARDS weight I’m carrying from Sebring made a big difference in the straight line speed, and I didn’t really have anything for Pierre on power,” said Auberlen, who also won the pole position for Sunday’s SCCA Speed GT Championship race. “On the last lap, he dropped a wheel off in turn one, but he kept his foot in it and I couldn’t get by him.”

having the luck to hang around Bill for a little bit, I'm becoming a fan of him. He is a very smart and calm racer.
JP, a local SF Bay racer who's in Stasis' Audi this year (new car, new engine program) finished 4th. Impressive.
gosh the competition is intense this year! what a difference 1 round makes. this time Rog qualifying 24th only, but his racing skills allow him to go up to 12. will be interesting to ask Rog what happened.

Did you notice that less than one second seperated the top twenty qualifiers?
