Nissan: Strong fightback for GT-R squad at Lime Rock World Challenge

LIME ROCK, Conn. – The Always Evolving / AIM Autosport combination of James Davison and Bryan Heitkotter fought back from a difficult opening race at Lime Rock Park to finished fifth and seventh respectively yesterday.

 

 

Heitkotter finished 10th in Friday’s race ahead of Davison in 12th at Lime Rock Park which is one of the shortest and tightest venues on the calendar.

The results however were overshadowed by an accident in Saturday’s warm-up where Pirelli World Challenge fellow competitors Andrew Palmer (Bentley) and Jorge De La Torre (Aston Martin) were injured.

Our thoughts are with Palmer and De La Torre, their families and their teams.
