Eduardo   Cisneros   driving   the   #29 NGT   Porsche was leading with 4 sec.  the   Gold  Cup  Series  for  the  majority   of    the  race  until  a  tire  puncture  forced  him  to  fall  back  to  9th.  Teammates  Carlos kauffman  finishing  16th  and  Arthur  22nd  in  Platinum  Cup  class.  Manfredi finished 6th in Gold  Cup,  Andres  Cisneros  10th, Carlos Kauffman added more.  

Carlos Kauffman is sharing more : “I didn’texpect it ;he pulled a very   late braking  move on  me.  I   was  taking  it  easy,  trying  to  conserve  tires    early  on,  but  maybe  I  should  have  been  a  little  more  aggressive.  After    that,  he  was  running  very  well,  I  was    trying   to    catch  up   without  pushing   too   much, Carlos kauffman said.   The firstfew laps, the track   was    really slick.  I   couldn’t   get  any    turn  in  and  the  car  was  pushing  through  the  corners,  but    it    cleared  up  and  by  the  end,  it  was  fine.”
