Eric Curran held the
Driver's Championship lead going into the SCCA SPEED World Challenge GT
series race at New Jersey Motorsports Park with his #30 Whelen
Engineering Corvette.
Things went downhill throughout the weekend.
Eric
started the race sixth fastest after having a small issue in qualifying
on the 2.25-mile New Jersey circuit. As the cars were getting lined up
for the pre-griding of the race, the Whelen Corvette had a dead
battery, forcing Eric to start from pit lane, rather that the 6th place
starting position he'd earned.
As the race started, Eric
quickly moved forward, and by lap two, he had moved to seventh place,
got back to his qualifying position by lap three, and passed the
Corvette of Tony Gaples on lap four to take fifth place.

Curran Goes Two-For-Two, Takes Points Lead
Eric Curran's quest to win
the SCCA SPEED World Challenge GT
series, a second place finish at Long Beach this past weekend in the 29-lap
race on the streets of Long Beach, Calif., which follows his second place in
the season-opener last month at Sebring, Fla., means Eric now leads the Driver
Championship points chase.
He now has 222 points, 10
ahead of Porsche driver James Sofronas, who won the Long Beach race.
