Lights out at Laguna Seca and 4 drivers rolled into a Warm and dry 24°C afternoon.

The start was clean enough that nobody lost big chunks of track position.

Mid race kept the field in one long stretch, gaps earned rather than gifted.

The log logged 2 car contact reports, enough to keep hearts in mouths without turning the whole grid into a demolition derby. 2 cars did not see the chequered.

When the flag fell, Chuck Winters had done the homework. Same track, same pressure, different outcome at the top.
