In this particular case, he was the only guy in his class. Usually always a good idea (as a racer) to walk around grid and also keep an eye on qualifying sheets to know who is who so that very scenario does not happen.

I did not have a chance to talk to him after the race because I was frantic in having to prep and get our GTS2 car ready for our renter who was racing in the group afterwards. I did end up emailing him and had a nice exchange. As I thought, he didnt mean anything by it and was just looking to have fun racing someone. No harm done since I beat Omar, but is the nature of multi-class racing.

In this video, I was running GTS4 trim which was 330rwhp and overweight at 3080#. I know those 914s are light, but man, he pulled like crazy!
