A broken transmission wiped out # 23 Amy Ruman on the very first lap.  Disappointing her and Corvette fans with hopes riding on her success.  She is the only Corvette racer on the full tour and is still sharp behind the wheel at age 46.

Fan hopes also ride along with # 28 Lou Gigliotti, a legendary constructor and driver back for 2020 in the Trans Am SGT class.  A lost tire ended his chances on lap 12 while running 2nd in class.
