Guy Cosmo and John Baker Take 2nd in Class at the Acura Sports Car Challenge of Mid-Ohio

Guy Cosmo's return to the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course would have to be qualified as a success. Driving the No. 47 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup in the ALMS Challenge class as part of the featured American Le Mans Series Acura Sports Car Challenge of Mid-Ohio, along with teammate John Baker, Cosmo finished second in Saturday's race, setting the fastest ALMS Challenge lap along the way. Cosmo also set the fastest time in qualifying.

"It was great being back at Mid-Ohio with ALMS," noted Cosmo enthusiastically. "This is just a great race track, and we had an incredible turnout with the fans. The Orbit racing prepared No. 47 Porsche was working well all weekend. We certainly had a car capable of winning, but we didn't get everything right today."

Trying to apply a little 'outside-the-box' pit strategy, the team took a shot at only changing two tires. Turns out, the officials deemed the maneuver to be not in keeping with the rules and called the team back in for a 'full' pit stop.
