They took the pole!

djtodd 07-27-2012 09:35 AM

Bryan Heitkotter landed the pole position Friday morning for the inaugural Brickyard Sports Car Challenge at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, clocking a lap of 95.102 mph (1 minute, 35.922 seconds) to top the featured Grand Sport division in the Grand-Am Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge Series.

Heitkotter, who shares driving duties with BJ Zacharias, boosted the No. 14 Doran Racing/Nissan Motorsports/Lushin Nissan 370Z from its eighth-place showing in the lone practice session earlier Friday on the 2.534-mile Indy road course layout. Lawson Aschenbach backed up his second-fastest effort from practice by qualifying second at 95.094 mph, just .008 seconds off Heitkotter's time in the No. 01 CKS Autosport Camaro.

Woot! way to go guys, just watch out for those wayward BMW's in the race.

sig11 07-27-2012 10:23 AM

I'll try to do a play by play from speed2 if anyone is interested... (until I have to leave for the track myself)

DR_ 07-27-2012 11:34 AM

Good luck Doran!

TreeSemdyZee 07-27-2012 12:02 PM

Everyone clear through turn 1. Heitkotter spun somewhere on the opening lap but no contact shown. Commentators say he got a little push.

First restart... Brian's still on the lead lap but the back of the GS group
Now a BMW just hit the wall on the first green lap. :(

Pit stop rotation put Heitkotter back up in 14th at the restart.
Green flag! Clean restart.. Up to 12th and everyone in front of him is due to stop yet!
Holy cow.. Up to 8th by the time the first green lap is done. Nice driving!

dastaco 07-27-2012 12:49 PM

I smell podium.

Brian was up to 4th but now is running 7th. Looking darn good. ~12s behind leader.

Some raindrops reported.... nothing heavy yet.

b1adesofcha0s 07-27-2012 01:01 PM

In for the play by play. Good luck guys, bring home the win!

Dustin@Z1 07-27-2012 01:13 PM

Just curious...how is the Skullcandy Altima team performing? Hate the thread jack, but do not forget that there are other Nissan's running as well.

They are currently 20th in the ST class.

sig11 07-27-2012 01:15 PM

If you want more detail I can try to give that... but the timing and scoring is probably the way to go.

( Click to show/hide )

Caution! (81 off in turn 1) ~1:17:00 Heitkotter in 5th. Sky darkening... rain showing up on most onboards. BJ may be finishing up in the wet.

Skull Candy is doing great. They were leading ST for a while... coverage has been fairly quiet. I'll start updating about them too.

Lots of rain now. Race leader going out ON RAINS!

Extended yellow because of rain...


HKYStormFront 07-27-2012 01:21 PM

BJ out on rains at 1:09... Rotation dropped him to 7th.

Fingers crossed for a green sooner than later... These aren't nascars, dangit! :P
Track looks to be draining well but the rain is coming down very hard.

Skull candy to 15th after the ST stops.

BJ up to 2nd! Some of the leaders must have not been on wets.
DEEP standing water in the pit lane... lightning is stopped.

Red flag. Cars parking on front straight. Infield is flooded apparently...

BJ is shown in 2nd by T&S but appears to be in 3rd or 4th from the way they're parked... Must be lapped cars.

BALLS. Timer is continuing to tick with the red flag.

sig11 07-27-2012 01:35 PM

Turn 1 looks REALLY nasty... a couple inches of standing water. Shouldn't take long to dry as dry as it is.

They needed this rain pretty bad in Indy... but uh... :)

Pacecar is doing a recon lap!

I may have to go pick up my trailer really soon. :( I'm afraid I'm going to miss the end of the race.

No spray behind the pace car. Lets get this show on the road! Sun is cracking through the clouds too it looks like.

Bummer. I've enjoyed reading your commentary while watching it on Speed2.

ROLLING OFF!
Pit lane water from a fella on the livestream chat: imgur: the simple image sharer


Looks like I'm going to be hooking my trailer up in the rain. I hear thunder... boo.

Yellow flag! 37:00 to go.
The speed2 feed went down for a while so I think I may have missed some yellow flag time. Still shows BJ in 2nd!

dastaco 07-27-2012 01:57 PM

BJ just took P1..33 minutes left.

Track is incredibly dry... I can't figure out why they're still under yellow.
