Yep
Georgian Bay Motorsports / Chevrolet Cobalt http://grand-am.com/Events/SessionRe...?SessionID=984
check under ST class
#14 and 15
great drive either way
"The Subaru seemed to be the car of the weekend," Curran said. "The car's extremely fast in a straight line, and we didn't know if we had anything for them. We were keeping our fingers crossed that they would have to do two pit stops, and also keeping our fingers crossed that the all-wheel drive would use up its tires. It seemed like it did all of the above. We were in good shape, and our Cobalt SS was wonderful today consistent. Not the fastest car, but consistent enough to get the job done. A win here at Miller Motorsports Park is a lot of fun."
Holtom, who started the car third, moved past front-row starter Adam Burrows on the opening lap and kept close to Brian Lock for the opening 11 laps. Holtom took the lead on Lap 12 when Lock pitted for the first of two times, and led the next 12 laps.
"I started from third, was able to get into second from the start right away, and from there, I was trying to control the pace and stick to the Subaru in front of me," said Holtom, who with Curran finished 14th overall. "That Subaru has more power than anything in the field, that's for sure. Despite that, the great handling of the SCADAPack Cobalt SS was spot-on all day. We were able to keep it right up at the front, and the guys at Georgian Bay called great strategy. They gave us just enough gas to make it to the end. In fact, the car shut off on the last lap."
Brian Lock led the first 11 laps and returned to the lead for eight laps - passing Holtom on the track on Lap 24 - before turning the car over to Mike Lock on Lap 32. Mike Lock tried to reel in Holtom over the final 45 minutes, but could come no closer to the final 11-second margin.
"Unfortunately, we couldn't catch them at the end," Mike Lock said. "That Cobalt was running strong. Our Subaru was right there with them, but I didn't have quite enough on him. Our car was pretty used up. We unfortunately had to drive through a whole second stop over the rest of the field, because we have such a heavy car and burn a lot of gas. Second place is our best result, and we're real happy."
Brian Lock, who led a race-high 19 laps, was pleased with the car's performance. It marked the first time the car had competed since May's race at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, which ended in a crash.
"It was an intense stint," Brian Lock said. "Like my brother said, we had to drive the extra pit stop. We came in the first yellow and splashed, came out in seventh and had to drive all the way back up to first. Unfortunately, it used up the car and my brother didn't have much left. We're happy with second."

Did somebody say Hot Cobalt Action?


Taken at Laguna Seca on that ill-fated race day for Goto. Glad to see the car is back in action. Hope to see you guys at Thunderhill.
