It was a bitter sweet weekend for sure for the Orion Race Team. The LMP car had issues after a possible faulty skin pack caused a DNF. This came after well over 2,000 laps of the LMP drivers put in for practice, and showing some amazing pace. Ilkka Haapala put in a great qualifying session only missing pole by 1 tenth of a second! But shortly after the first swap, the race day for the LMP was sadly over.

However the GT was able to make the day a bit brighter as it not only took pole, but the win by over 3 laps! Drivers Frosty St.Clair, Julien Dill, Chris Sommerfeld, Chris Gennarelli, and even Davy Decorps who only had 30 minutes of seat time in a GT car all did a great job of driving the GT car home for the win!


After a podium finish at the 8hrs of Nuerburg ring, The Orion Race Team now has a strong lead in Championship points! The Orion GT looks forward to more dominance at Sebring, despite the media bias towards other teams.
