Sorry this is old ... but I recall being at Watkins Glen in 2007 for the World Speed Challenge with Team Cadillac (as a supportive fan and CTS-V owner at the time) and seeing Pobst win every race for the weekend (GT win in a GT3 Porsche). Still to this day a record, I think. From his bio:

"Won historic three World Challenge races in one weekend at Watkins Glen (one GT win with K-Pax/3R Racing Porsche GT3, two TC wins and two poles with Tri-Point Engineering Mazda6). Record for both World Challenge and Watkins Glen International."

Anyway, he has plenty of success and seat time in RWD cars to be considered somewhat knowledgeable.

Back on topic, I had read in some other posts about 2012 oil cooling issues. Was there a change in that versus prior years ?
