The GT America powered by AWS series waited all weekend for some sunshine and it finally had a dry run for race two at the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix. Jason Daskalos in the No. 27 CRP Racing Mercedes-AMG GT3 turned a damage-inflicted third-place finish in race one to a clean win in race two on the 2.1-mile, 11-turn course. Meanwhile, in the GT4 class, Robb Holland in the No. 099 Rotek Racing Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport made it four in a row. Holland won back-to-back races in 2022 and paired the streak with back-to-back wins this year.
The SRO3 Class was straightforward. From start to finish the top three never changed positions, though each may have taken a look at advancing on track. Following Daskalos across the start-finish line was race one winner Johnny O’Connell in the No. 2 SKI Autosports Audi R8 LMS. Memo Gidley in the No. 101 TKO Motorsports Mercedes-AMG GT3 walked into the weekend a points leader but he paired his race one second-place finish with a third-place finish in race two to hand the lead over to Daskalos. Mirco Schultis was one of the fastest on track; he and his No. 70 MISHUMOTORS Corvette C7 GT3 R started and finished fourth.
Alex Vogel in the No. 043 OnlyFans Racing with P1 Groupe by MRS Porsche 911 GT3 R advanced from seventh to fifth for the finish. He was followed on track by the No. 460 Flying Lizard Motorsports Porsche 911 GT3 R of Andy Wilzoch in sixth. The two capitalized on the late hit of Todd Treffert in the No. 41 CRP Racing Mercedes-AMG GT3. Treffert made contact with a wall while pushing through corners when he sustained the damage ultimately ending his race early.
