RACER VIDEO: Acura TLX World Challenge GT Mid-Ohio Race 2

It's everything the Pirelli World Challenge GT class is, and frankly, what other sports car series hope to be.

Ride along with umpteen-time World Challenge champion Peter Cunningham in the ALMS P2-derived twin-turbo V6-powered all-wheel drive Acura TLX GT last Sunday at Mid-Ohio as he chases a FIA GT3-spec twin-turbo V8 Bentley Continental. And, as if a TTV6 AWD Acura TLX chasing a TTV8 Bentley Continental GT3 wasn't crazy enough, they also have a chromed Mercedes AMG SLS GT3 in their crosshairs.

It was all looking so promising until Cunningham gets hammered by a Audi R8 Ultra, forcing the No. 42 TLX GT to the pits for repairs. He returns to the track many laps down, but the opportunity for a strong finish was lost.
