Spent some time at DIS today at Roar. The RLL and Turner teams are super friendly and approachable during the Roar. Great to chat with them.

They were waaaaay off pace today. I hope they will improve. 3s per lap behind the fastest GT cars is a lot.

Yeah the 24 ran better today. I suspect some sandbagging going on here or some "shake down runs" as it was first practice. Check out the last four places in the combined times today attached below...the vettes running slowest...come on. (or here http://results.imsa.com/)

Sandbagging is part of the game. But the new M4s were also quite slow in Dubai last week. Teething problems I hope.

It's the new grill! They were embarrassingly back of pack in the 24. Car has to be a brick with that snout.
