Long Beach Raceday - Morning Warmup

8:20 am - The checkered is out and crew chief Tommy Sadler calls Johannes in. That's it for practice before this afternoon's race, which begins at 4 pm PT.

8:10 am - Darren made contact with the Mazda prototype and pits to let the crew inspect the damage. It looks like there's damage to the front bumper but hopefully it's limited to that. Darren also reports that one of the Ferraris is "off in the flowers". The report in from the crew is that it did not damage the radiator so the crew will replace the bumper and use the recon lap prior to the race to ensure that all is well. Darren is out of the car and the crew is readying the car to go back into the garage. Johannes continues in the No. 45.

The Lizards will start 2nd and 3rd on the grid in GT2 today, with Johannes starting in the No. 45 and Darren in the No. 44. This race will be shorter than the standard ALMS race - just 1 hour and 40 minutes.

8:00 am PT - Good morning from Long Beach. It looks like it will be another beautiful day here in Southern California. The Lizards are getting ready for the final practice before this afternoon's race. The cars are lined up in pit out waiting for the green flag for the 20 minute session. Darren Law is in the No. 44 Porsche and Johannes is in the No. 45 Porsche.
