| Aeromotions wing on a serious looking Camaro from Canada |
Gathering information as I get it from Facebook, blogs, and the One Lap of America page. OLOA updated their page this year, and its a nice upgrade.
First event of the day, Wet Skidpad. Driving around circles, on some wet concrete. As boring as an event as you can get. The fastest run ever, looks just like the slowest run ever. Either way GT-R's did well. Catesby Jones, and William Taylor(2009 overall winner) came in first with a 0.857 followed closely by the TopSpeed Motorsports entry of Douglas Wilks and Leh Keen (2010,2011,2012 overall winners). In third spot this year, the guys from Speedconcepts, Todd Treffert, and Tyson Timperly. Last year they finished 2nd overall in a GT-R, this year they are in a 2012 Mercedes SLS. Fourth spot around the wet circle was the Chariots of Palm Beach GT-R, third overall last year. Fifth overall was the Sleeper Racing Team driving a 2013 Nissan GT-R. Four out of the top 5 spots belong to GT-R's after the first event.

After the wetskid pad the teams headed over to Grissom Airforce base to do the cone dodging, I mean Autocross. Last year Leh won the event, hustling the big grey Nissan GT-R though the cones even quicker than the Autocrossing CRX. This year, not be be had, although it was kinda close. 0.004. CRX, GT-R, #6 GT-R, #7 GT-R, #9 GT-R.
