Teammates Stewart Tetreault and Guy Cosmo finished in 22nd place in their #83 Porsche 911 Carrera as the 5th highest finishing Porsche; Cosmo showed signs of speed late in the race but an unexpected trip to pit road early in the event produced a deficit too big to recover from, despite his ability to keep pace on track with the overall race leaders. Had there been the same amount of caution periods in the end of the race as there were in the beginning, it may have been a story with a different ending. Clearly the pair have unfinished business in the Continental Tire field, as evidenced by Cosmo's lap time of 2:00.3 during the Test Days, the fastest lap to date around Daytona's road course for any Continental Tire Porsche in competition.

The #38 entry of Steve Jenkins and Craig Stanton found itself in the middle of a first lap scrap which relegated it to the garages for repairs. The BGB Motorsports crash crew was poised though for the execution, and the car was back on track half a half hour later. The season long teammates were forced to settle for 32nd finishing position, and both look forward to the next event and putting this event behind them. This entry showed promise when it out qualified all other Porsche entries during Thursday evening's qualifying session, which was backed up by Craig Stanton's lap time of 2:01.4 in the pre-race practice, where he produced the car's fastest laps yet to date.

"It's always hard when one car does well and the other guys don't have the best day. I'm elated for both Keith and Duncan and I'm also grateful that they were able to carry the BGB flag the way they did. In his first race ever with us in his first full season of competition, Keith Carroll drove from 21st up to 8th and Duncan in his first race as the 2nd driver brought it home in 12th , after a late race stop for fuel. When you consider how competitive the field was and how young this car is, that's a solid result," added Team Principal John Tecce. "Steve, Craig, Stew and Guy didn't get the finish we wanted for them but that's alright because they'll be working even harder to produce results next month in Miami."

The event started out well for the DigiTrust Group/Adam's Polishes/Racer's Roast Coffee/TRG Porsche 997 as Spencer set the fastest time of the day around the 4.5 miles track on Thursday's test day. On Friday I struggled with the car's set up in the heat of the day, but came good for qualifying, slotting into the 4th position for the start, the outside of the second row. Unfortunately, from the drop of the green flag, we found ourselves at the mercy of the V8 powered cars around us. Unable to make up ground in traffic through the winding portions of the track, we helplessly watched the competition power past us down the long front straight.

While the result doesn't show it, the the team performed beautifully throughout the race, with a brilliantly executed pit stop picking up several positions at the mid-point of the race. Next week's season finale 4 hour endurance race at Virginia International Raceway should play to the strengths of both our Porsches and the talents of our team members as we look to finish out season on a high.
