Should be interesting. At race time, there is a 95% chance of thunderstorms and a flash flood watch for the area.

Boo hiss to the Van Halen estate for prohibiting the 23 GS Aston Martin from running an EVH guitar type livery. Team owner is a big fan. They ran the livery in the prior race, which they won.

Momma nature had to interfere...but it was a decent watch until lightening shut it down.

^^^ Really? Why didn't the sponsor step in? Might have been a good marketing move.

Turner Motorsport Taco Team

Turner Motorsport Research and Development is constantly developing new products to improve the performance and driving excitement of your BMW. While we maintain a fleet of development vehicles, the ever-expanding list of new BMW’s means we can’t always keep every car we need in our fleet.

We are on the lookout for key vehicles to use for product development and product beta testing and need valued enthusiast customers to partner with us by offering your vehicle and product feedback. If you are local to our product development facility in Wadsworth, Ohio and are interested in loaning us your vehicle in exchange for Turner swag, gift cards, a tour of R&D, and even free parts and installation of test products, please contact us at rnd@turnermotorsport.com to get involved!

*All development vehicles must be delivered to our Wadsworth, OH Headquarters at the vehicle owner’s expense and remain with us for the duration listed in the chart below. All development vehicles will be subject to an initial vehicle inspection and test drive, owner sign-off on delivered vehicle condition and a Development Vehicle Usage Agreement.

I thought it was due to local lightening strikes. They have to shut operations down for 30 minutes. The clock resets after each strike.

Yes, it was for lightning. The announcer crew said that several times. They can't race and have the corner workers, etc. out there exposed to danger.

I was somewhat surprised they were interviewing drivers and team members in the open air under the roof of the pit buildings. Lightning does travel sideways, too. In trailers and motorhomes would've been safe.
