Washington DC: The Racer's Group Saturday morning notes

The Racer's Group
Cadillac Grand Prix
Saturday a.m. combined practice

GT Class

Both No. 66 and 67 cars are running well, the water hose issue in No. 67 and gearbox problem in No. 66 have both been resolved.

No. 66 - Kevin Buckler:

The car feels great. I really like street courses. I've been sliding into corners to gain extra time, it's kind of slick out there right now, it feels like a dirt track. We have taken care of the setup and gearbox, thanks to the crew who worked late last night."

No. 66 - Brian Cunningham:

"We've resolved yesterday's issues and it feels good. It has really helped me find a rhythm. As we run every session, the car has more grip and just feels better. This session has really helped me with confidence, speed and comfort. We're going to come together for a good qualifying session and a great race."

No. 67 - Michael Schrom:

"My first impression of the track is that it's really rhythmic. I felt like I got up to speed quickly. I'm learning the track and ready to go back out. The car is handling well. It feels strange to come directly from a huge week with my company and just jump in the car and drive. It's going to be a good race."

No. 67 - Darren Law:

"I'm really happy to have the water leak resolved. We really needed to get some time in the car and this session it happened. I'm feeling very good."

No. 66

Last lap out: second in class

Quickest lap: 1:12.974 (Cunningham in car)

No. 67

Last lap out: fourth in class

Quickest lap: 1:14.042 (Law in car)
