Wolfe wins again. Hopefully that means he will get some weight at Laguna Seca.

Tony got a great start and then got balked by the guy in front of him that did not go. Still half a lap in he made a move for second place but something happened off camera that dropped him to 6th by the end of the first lap. He then drove back to third but had no chance of catching the front two who also happen to be the two drivers leading him in the points.

His finishes this week should allow him to shed a little award weight for Laguna Seca or at least the front two should gain a little weight. If they were to drop the BOP completely for the last race as they do in some series then the FR-S would bury the rest of the field.

Oh well, At least Tony has clearly shown that the FR-S can be fast and reliable in a top tier professional racing series. Maybe next year we will see more of them running and maybe Toyota, Scion and TRD will get off their a$$ and support them.

I fear that nothing will change and Tony will continue 3rd or 4th to the end. I bet the powers that be like the Kia/Honda dominance. Reminds me of what happened to American Le Mans after it got taken over and turned into Tudor--dumbing down the best cars to promote the organizers' favorites. Hope I'm wrong.
