In ST action, No. 95 Turner Motorsport BMW 330i co-drivers Trevor Hopwood and Adam Burrows head the point standings, and like their GS counterpart Foster, are also looking for their first victory of the season.
Hopwood and Burrows hold a scant four-point advantage (132-128) over Karl Thomson and Billy Johnson in the No. 76 Kensai Racing Compass360.com/Skunk2 Acura TSX. Hopwood and Burrows scored a season-best second at Homestead-Miami, and have held the point lead on two occasions this season.
Thomson, the highest-ranking Canadian in points at third, and Johnson led the standings earlier this season after winning their second race of the season at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. But a disappointing 21st-place result at Lime Rock Park set them back to a third-place tie. Thomson and Johnson also won the ST season-opener at Daytona.
No. 69 SpeedSource Mondial Forwarding/Freedom Harley-Davidson Mazda RX-8 co-drivers Jose Armengol and Dan Allen have quietly found their way into a tie for fifth, but are 24 points behind leaders Hopwood and Burrows. They scored three top 10s to begin the season but have finished 14th and 13th respectively in the last two events.
Guy Cosmo, listed as the only driver in the No. 127 Fountain Motorsports BMW 330i as of Wednesday, holds seventh in the standings, thanks in part to three straight top 10s, anchored by a victory at Iowa Speedway with co-driver David Tuaty. Tuaty could be back in the car after driving in the last four races with the team.
Cosmo’s teammate, Sam Schultz, drives the No. 126 Fountain Motorsports Trackmasters BMW 330i, and holds eighth in the standings, with a best finish of fifth at Lime Rock. Schultz is scheduled to share the car again with Seth Thomas, who has co-piloted the car in four of five events.
No. 58 BSI Racing MOMO/Joe Gibbs Mazda MX-5 co-drivers Magnus Karlsson and Justin Hall round out the top 10 in points, as they own a tie for ninth. The Californians scored a season-best fifth at Laguna Seca.
A total of 13 Canadians are entered in ST action. Canadian-based team Kensai Racing has Thomson in one of its three cars, with Matt Pritiko of London, Ontario in the No. 74 Compass360.com/Hawk Brakes Acura RSX-S. Another Canadian team, Georgian Bay Motorsports, won the last ST race in 2005 with Jim and Jamie Holtom. Jamie Holtom will share the No. 01 Scada Pack Chevrolet Cobalt this weekend with multiple-time KONI Challenge race winner Eric Curran.
GS Motorsports and their No. 138 C&P Cross-Border Law Chevrolet Cobalt will see a trio of Canadians behind the wheel, with Steve Kent (Bradford), Gunter Schmidt (Midland) and Andrew Danyliw (Toronto). 89 Racing Team No. 189 Trois-Rivieres Honda/Chem TVR Honda Civic Si has Quebec drivers Jocelyn Hebert (Becancour) and Rejean Vincent (Trois-Rivieres) paired up, while No. 98 Team Cobalt California Chevrolet Cobalt drivers David Shep (Caledon) and Ken MacAlpine (Sarnia) call Ontario home.
Alain Lauziere of Vaudreulil Dorion, Quebec will share the No. 197 RSR Motorsports Cruise Canada, Inc. Mini Cooper S with Arizonan Randy Smalley. Nick Wittmer of Hudson, Quebec, who finished second at Iowa with brother Kuno, is scheduled to drive the No. 31 i-MOTO Racing Cobalt Friction/Alpinestar Acura TSX with Floridian Glenn Bocchino.
