Update from today via autoblog:

Rod Millen looks to be the close favorite in the 2WD Time Attack class, edging out his close friend Jeff Zwart by a second and a half during today's qualifying. Millen's Hyundai Genesis was far faster on yesterday's practice session, however, topping Zwart's Porsche 911 GT2 RS by thirteen seconds.

I've got to see this Genesis... Holy crap!

(Is anyone else surprised by this?)

bbwyu - did you mean Rhys Millen? I remember he got a contract with Hyundai to run their Genesis in Formula D. And if it is Rhys, I'm no longer AS shocked as I was the first time I read the post.

Rod is driving his son's Formula D car (Rhys set the previous record of 12:09 with his Genesis drift car that was obliterated last year by Zwart in the P Cup car - 11:31) This should be an interesting climb:
