TUSC: Paul Miller Racing Audi qualified fourth at Road America


By Tarek Ramchani

The Paul Miller Racing team qualified in a strong fourth place at Road America after a thrilling TUDOR United SportsCar Championship qualifying session.

The #48 Audi R8 LMS was the fourth fastest within the GT Daytona class with a best time of 2:10.125. The car is shared by Dion von Moltke and Christopher Haase

The two drivers are leading the overall GT Daytona points standing and will target a race victory tomorrow at Elkhart Lake after a very unlucky Lime Rock Park round last time out.

The Compass360 Racing entry qualified in tenth position in GT Daytona class. The #76 Audi R8 LMS is driven by Ray Mason and Pierre Kleinubing. This the second race for the Canadian team with the Audi GT racer in the demanding TUDOR United SportsCar Championship.

Pole position in GT Daytona went #73 Porsche 911 GT America ahead of the #33 Dodge Viper GT3-R in second and the #007 Aston Martin Vantage GT3 in third.

The TUSC race at Road America is set for Sunday.
