…すっかり書くの忘れてたんですけど、551号車のタッカーは、P2クラスのタイトル争いしてたんですよ。
Extreme Speed Motorsportsの01号車のスコット・シャープが2位だったので、その辺の順位によりけりで552号車は動きが変わるかもしれない？って話が割と早いうちからありました。
で、結局01号車がトップにいたので、レース終盤には552（ジョニー）がピットインしてコズモと交代、551（マリノちゃん）を先に行かせる、とかいうチームプレイもあったようです。
ちょこっと譲ってどうにかなる位置にいたというのは、ジョニーもダンブレック先生も、ゲストで出てきたドライバーにしたら、いい仕事してたんじゃないでしょうか。
（コズモはヴァージニアにはいなかったけどそれ以外は出てる）
結局551はマリノちゃんからブリちゃんに交代。その後ブリちゃんはブラバムに抜かれたりもしたようですが、結果的にはまたブラバムを抜いて、最後にクラス優勝をして、タッカーがALMSのP2 クラスのチャンピオンになりました。
で、レース結果。

…長い！(笑)
これにMichelin Green Challengeとかもあるのですがそれは割愛いたします…。
来年のUnited Sportscarの開幕までもう3ヶ月もないんだよね。
そしてセブリングでのテストまではあと9日だそうで。
新しいシリーズの成功をお祈りいたします。
（ピーターもまた走ったりしたらいいなー）
