SEAN McALISTER:
"I found myself battling the No.99 Masters Class car of Alan Metni for most of the first race, his ABS brake system equipped car really worked to his advantage and he was impossible to pass. In Race 2, I started behind my teammate Jeff [Kingsley] and was able to get around him early on but I spun late in the race and finished behind Jeff."
"The #11/JDX Racing/Renier Construction/Byers Porsche felt really good all weekend and never missed a beat. It feels good to get the first two races under my belt and get the season off to a strong start. Our next race is Mid-Ohio and I'm feeling more confident knowing I need to focus on being consistent."
HARRISON BRIX, MANAGING PARTNER/JDX RACING: "We're really pleased with the start to the season for all three drivers. It's very clear they developed familiarity with the series, the cars and the team. It will be up to the team and the drivers to maintain that trajectory. Everyone is looking forward to carrying this momentum to Mid-Ohio in a few weeks. It's the home race for Byers Porsche so we're looking forward to showing up and using what we learned here at Barber to put all three cars onto the podium for ourselves and our partners."
