Baltimore Post-Race Quotes From SRT Motorsports

SRT Viper GTS-R Baltimore 2013

Dominik Farnbacher – No. 91 Rush SRT Viper GTS-R (Finished 5th)

“That was a crazy race especially the beginning. We were quite lucky that we could stay out of it (accident at the start of the race). The 93 got tangled but our SRT Motorsports team rocks. Who else could get the car back out within a few minutes? I mean the car was completely totaled on the front and the guys on the 93 brought it back out before the (race) restart. I’m very proud to be a part of that team.”

 

Marc Goossens – No. 91 Rush SRT Viper GTS-R

“It’s tough racing on a street circuit especially the start here with the chicane and the railroad tracks. I think they need to look at how they go through some starting procedures. After all, it took away half of the starting field. But we avoided that wreck.  When the next accident, not that we were involved in the accident, I had to stop and couldn’t go anywhere and that was about it for me. By then I had done the minimum and it was the best strategy for us to come in and so we did. Unfortunately, we had some issues on pit lane that resulted in a penalty. All in all after all the stuff that happened in the race, I think P5 is one of the better things that we could have hoped for.”

 

Jonathan Bomarito – No. 93 Pennzoil Ultra SRT Viper GTS-R (Finished 6th)

The main story that we can take from all this is how hard the SRT Motorsports crew worked today. They took us from being out of the race to not losing a lap and getting some points. My hat’s off to all the guys. They were ready for every situation we could throw at them and proved they were really well prepared today.”

TODAY’S RACE SEEMED RAGGED WITH A LOT OF STARTS AND STOPS. “This is a really tough track. You’ve seen in years past that it’s been an issue with this many classes, experience levels and types of cars. It’s a tough place to go race. The flow of the race was hindered dramatically because of it.”

THIS WAS YOUR FIRST START AT BALTIMORE. HOW MUCH OF A LEARNING EXPERIENCE WAS THIS WHOLE WEEKEND?  “Every time you’re in the car, it’s a learning experience and you have to take the positives and the negatives and work from there. We learned a lot today and we’ll come back stronger next time.
