Today was the first day of on track action at the Circuit of the Americas. Two practice sessions were run for CTSC and so far things are looking good for our MINI JCW Team.
The first session had the 73 putting up the 4th fastest time at 2:30.460. The 37 was in ninth with a 2:31.684. That gave the team two cars in the top 10 to start off the weekend. The 52 was unfortunately unable to put in a lap.

The second session was highlighted by the 73 once again. This time though they moved to the top of the speed charts with a 2:30.511. The 37 fell back a bit to 11th followed by the 52 in 16th.
