Cadillac driver Max Angelelli set the fifth fastest time in qualifying at Lime Rock Park with a lap of 54.589 seconds. Angelelli and fellow Cadillac driver Andy Pilgrim will start Monday's 50-minute race side-by-side on the 29-car grid; Pilgrim qualified his No.8 Cadillac CTS-V at 54.686, or sixth fastest overall. Both times shattered the previous Speed GT qualifying record at Lime Rock.<BR> <BR> "The track was much faster than practice yesterday," said David Spitzer, program manager for the Cadillac CTS-V race car. "We are satisfied with our qualifying performance and are just hoping to survive the first few laps, which could be action-packed here at Lime Rock. Of course, anything can happen during Monday's race and tyre wear will be a factor."<BR> <BR> Drivers Max Angelelli and Andy Pilgrim were happy with the performance of the Cadillacs during qualifying.<BR> <BR> "My starting position for Monday is okay," said Angelelli. "I'm still learning this track as it is my first time here, and I love the last corner coming onto the front straight. The new competition adjustments have affected our car more than I expected but we're working hard this weekend so that we can still be competitive."<BR> <BR> Angelelli's teammate, Andy Pilgrim, will start close by in sixth position for Monday's race. <BR> <BR> "My Cadillac was great right from the start of the session," said Pilgrim. "I noticed we have a little less push, which allowed me to rotate the car quite well in the second section of Turn 1. We've got a few more setup issues to deal with but overall I think we're happy with our qualifying position today."<BR> </FONT></TD></TR> </TABLE><BR> </CENTER> <BR><CENTER><font size="1" color="#808080" face="Tahoma">Copyright ©2000-©2023 TotalMotorSport</font></CENTER> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
