Autosport Development Road Atlanta Race Report

GMAC / Trenton Forging #5 GTO Road Atlanta Final Race Report
Good day for Hayner ends in 11th place.

Braselton, Ga. – April 17, 2005 The #5 GMAC Commercial Finance / 
Trenton Forging GTO, driven by Stu Hayner, finished in 11th place after 
starting in 14th in the SCCA Pro Racing SPEED World Challenge GT race. 
The series is running as part of the Sportsbook.com Grand Prix at Road 
Atlanta, in Braselton, Ga., April 15-17. The race ran at 8:55am EST and 
aired on SPEED Channel same-day tape delay at 1pm.

“We needed a run like this,” commented Hayner after the race. “We 
finally got to see what the car would do after pushing it hard for a 
full 50 minute race. We’ve got some balance issues to sort out and need 
to take a look at the brakes and tire-wear… but these are the things we 
needed to learn. We can improve from this.”

Hayner ran has high as eighth during the race.

“The car was very competitive early on,” Hayner continued. “I felt 
confident putting the car through its paces and trying different parts 
of the track. Late in the race, though, the handling started going 
away. I experienced some issues with the rear brakes and the tires were 
pretty much gone.”

Hayner was destined for a 9th place finish. However, on the last lap 
slower traffic came into play.

“I really wanted to see the team break into the top-10,” said Hayner. 
Unfortunately, I had some miscommunication with slower traffic on the 
last lap. I had to make and evasive move and ended up having a minor 
off that cost us a couple of positions. We’ll get ‘em at Mid-Ohio.”

The team also participated in off-track activities with hospitality 
programs for guests from GMAC Commercial Finance in Atlanta and in 
conjunction with Chili Pepper racing will entertain families from the 
Lighthouse Retreat, a seaside family retreat established to serve 
families caring for children with cancer.

Challenge Weekend presented by Trenton Forging Quality Formed
