3 hours = 1/2 way


Just after Noon, the standings are:

1. 72 Team TSR, Camaro - 93 laps
2. 7 Cone Damage, Mazda Miata - 91
3. 58 Friends of Paul Bunyan, BMW 325e - 91
4. 3 Squirrels of Fury 2, VW Scirocco - 91
5. 2 Team Wang, Mazda RX7 - 90
6. 83 Fast Times @ Placer High, Miata - 90
7. 27 RCMP (Race Car Money Pit), VW Rabbit - 90
8. 42 Beach Dudes Racing, Datsun 510 Wgn - 89
9. 20 Brian Towey Surfing School, Miata - 88
10. 94 Partridge Family Revenge, Mazda Protege - 87

Only 6 laps separate the top ten. With lap times around 1:40, a five minute pit stop gives up three laps. So if a team can stretch their gas stops a little, they can gain that much advantage on the thirsty cars.
