GXP.R takes First place at Lime Rock

I was just watching Speed and got to see the #06 Pontiac GXP.R take first place at Lime Rock!

I assume it'll be on the website in a little bit: www.limerock.com

EDIT: See link in next post for story.

I watched about 15 minutes of it. The GXP-R had a really nice lead ahead of the Porches.

Watched a good part of that race. At one point the Pontiacs were 1-2-3. Nice to see Pontiac's passing Porsche's.

There was a kid, Drew, from the SpeedTV program 'Setup' also driving for Pontiac. He did quite well. The one Mustang got taken out when a Porsche missed his apex and slid up the track.
