34. That is the exact number of screaming classic touring cars that flooded Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca for nine laps of pure Californian chaos, and Executive Director Eurico Maluf was spotted behind the pit wall weeping softly into a handful of expired parking tickets. While Mikael Gustavsson mastered the Corkscrew to take overall honors in his Lotus Cortina, our brave duude Fernando Horta parked the #97 Ford Mustang after a single lap to sample the local ambience.
To the tune of The Sound of Music ("My Favorite Things"):
Drops on old Cortinas and Alfas so shiny, Mustangs that stalled while ignoring the mini, One single lap till the engine went dead, These are a few of our bitterest dread.
Gaps in the timing and cars in the gravel, Pitted so early the gearboxes ravel, Horta found parking right next to the wall, That is the end of the race for us all.
The ElderCouncil Notes
Motion 20170607/04 regarding the total absence of pace from car #97 has been filed under 'things that surprised absolutely nobody' and the Council has retired to the snack bar.

Each lap's notable moments, quiet stretches grouped; tap a row for the full order with lap times and gaps. The logs don't record pit stops: they're worked out from lap times, so a spin that costs as much time can read as one.
