Magneti Marelli was also represented at the Grand Prix of Baltimore by ALMS Team SRT and the No. 91 and 93 Vipers. The No. 91 SRT Viper drivers Dominik Farnbacher and Marc Goossens, returning to the track after their Road America victory, started 16th and came in 5th in the final race for the GT class. The No. 93 SRT Viper drivers Jonathan Bomarito and Kuno Wittmer started 19th and came in 6th in the final race for the GT class. The Vipers performed extremely well considering their success in closing such a large gap between their starting and finishing positions. The start to this year’s Baltimore race was tough because six cars crashed before they even crossed the starting line and unfortunately one Viper also got caught up in it but the punctured radiator got repaired and they could return to the race quickly. This road course race through the streets of Baltimore is extremely tough on the cars because of its uneven pavement and road issues the drivers have to maneuver through which they don’t encounter anywhere else.
Aside from good racing, the Magneti Marelli stamped Vipers received quite a bit of attention last weekend since the Grand Prix of Baltimore is specifically sponsored by SRT.
