Jon Fogarty passed Scott Pruett at the entrance to the Corkscrew with 22 laps remaining in Sunday's 106-lap Verizon Festival of Speed and held on to give the No. 99 GAINSCO Pontiac Riley its second Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series presented by Crown Royal Cask No. 16 victory of the season at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.
In GT, Nick Ham and Sylvain Tremblay teamed to score their first victory of the season in the SpeedSource No. 70 Castrol Syntec/Mazdaspeed Mazda RX-8.
Fogarty started and finished the race, run under sunny skies and 91-degree temperatures. Alex Gurney drove the middle shift to give the team its 10th Rolex Series victory, beating the No. 01 TELMEX Lexus Riley started by pole sitter Memo Rojas by 7.228 seconds.
While it was the 10th time Fogarty and Gurney co-drove to win – following up their seven-victory championship season in 2007 – it marked the first time Fogarty actually took the checkered flag at the finish.
"We weren't sure if I had been in the car the required 30 minutes to score points," Fogarty said. "We considered leaving Alex in, but we figured since it's early in the season it was important for both of us to score points. On the winning pass, Scott got caught up in traffic in Turn 6 – and your momentum gets killed at that part of the track – so I had a good run and made it three-wide at that point. I got off into the gravel, but I was able to get back on the tarmac and outbraked him. I really almost didn't make it."
The victory allowed Fogarty and Gurney to take the Daytona Prototype point lead. Rolex 24 At Daytona winners Darren Law and David Donohue finished eighth in the Brumos Porsche Riley, and fell to second in the standings, eight points behind (119-111).
Rojas led the an event-high 44 laps in the race, with Pruett pacing 20 circuits in a bid to give them their first victory of the season.
The final 18 minutes were run under the green flag. Fogarty made his pass for the lead moments before the fourth and final caution, and then slowly pulled away after the final restart.
"We got caught up behind a GT car and had our momentum broke," Pruett said. "It was good, hard racing. He got his nose in there and I couldn't do anything about it."
Max Angelelli finished third in the No. 10 SunTrust Ford Dallara started by Brian Frisselle, followed by Burt Frisselle in the No. 61 AIM Autosport Ford Riley started by Mark Wilkins. For Wilkins and Burt Frisselle, it was their best finish of 2009.
Michael Shank Racing took fifth and seventh positions, with Ozz Negri and Mark Patterson fifth in the No. 60 Ford Riley, and Michael Valiante and John Pew taking seventh in the team's No. 6. In between was the Penske Racing No. 12 Verizon Wireless Porsche Riley of Romain Dumas and Timo Bernhard.
Much of the race was run under the green flag, with two cautions early in the event and a pair during the closing half-hour. The first incident occurred when Rolex 24 winner Justin Marks had a water leak in the TRG No. 67 Construct Corps Porsche GT3 and spun directly in front of the leaders on lap 10. Marks stopped on course to bring out the caution. The car co-driven by Andy Lally was able to continue after losing 30 laps in the pits.
"I saw the car spinning, but I was able to get our car in a direction where I would not hurt anything," said Rojas, who was pressured by Fogarty and Brian Frisselle at the time.
The second caution waved 30 minutes into the race when Scott Tucker went off and was stuck in a gravel trap. He was able to continue, with Christophe Bouchut taking over the No. 55 Supercar Life Racing BMW Riley to finish ninth in class.
After a long green-flag stretch, Wayne Nonnamaker was stranded in the gravel in the No. 43 Sahlen's Corvette with less than an hour remaining – erasing a seven-second lead for Pruett.
The fourth caution waved with 30 minutes remaining, when Mike Forest lost power in the Beyer Racing No. 13 Honda Riley and stopped on the track.
The Comptech Honda engine made its Daytona Prototype debut in the No. Beyer Racing No. 5 Lennox Riley Comptech Honda Riley. Jordan Taylor went out eight laps into the race with an electrical systems problem.
Also experiencing problems was the No. 76 Krohn Racing Ford Lola. Nic Jonsson – winner with Ricardo Zonta in the most recent race at New Jersey Motorsports Park – spun in the Corkscrew while trying to hold off Alex Gurney. A broken splitter resulted in the team's third DNF in four races.
Fogarty and Gurney completed 106 laps on the 2.238-mile circuit, averaging 85.807 mph.
Tremblay, Ham Win First GT Race of Season for Mazda
Nick Ham and Sylvain Tremblay teamed to lead 84 laps to give the SpeedSource No. 70 Castrol Syntec Mazda RX-8 its first Grand-Am Rolex Series Acxiom GT victory of the campaign.
Ham started on the pole and led four times for 50 laps. Tremblay took over and led the final 34 circuits after taking the lead from Paul Edwards.
"Last year I made a small mistake here and went from first to third," Tremblay said. "This year I wasn't going to make that mistake. Our car did a great job preparing our Mazda RX-8, and how can you not capitalize on that, our car was that good."
Ham, who won his series-leading second pole on Saturday, agreed with his co-driver.
"Our car was that good; it was just a matter of grinding out the laps," Ham said. "It was my job just to get the car to halfway."
Edwards and Kelly Collins teamed to lead for nine laps in the No. 07 Banner Racing Pontiac GXP.R. They held on to finish second, 8.23 seconds behind.
Leh Keen and Dirk Werner, winner of the most recent event at New Jersey Motorsports Park, finished third in the No. 87 Farnbacher Loles Racing Porsche GT3.
Fourth went to Ted Ballou and Spencer Pumpelly in the TRG No. 66 AXA/Mitchell Rubber Porsche GT3, followed by Emil Assentato and Jeff Segal in the SpeedSource No. 69 FXDD Mazda RX-8.
Pumpelly retains the Acxiom GT point lead, one ahead of Keen and Werner (117-116).
The next action for the Grand-Am Rolex Series will be the Sahlen's Six Hours of The Glen on June 6 at Watkins Glen International. The Grand-Am KONI Sports Car Challenge will race May 23-25 in the traditional Memorial Day weekend event at Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Ct.

Quotes:
Jon Fogarty (No. 99 GAINSCO Auto Insurance Pontiac Riley; first, Daytona Prototype): "Fantastic day for the GAINSCO Auto Insurance car. We did not have me in the car long enough early on and the team decided to put me back in. The first time I've gotten to finish a race and take the checker. Really, really stoked.
"Scott got held up in Turn 6 and I had a good run. He left me — some room, but we got by and I stayed on the track. Fantastic. Alex had an awesome deal. He definitely took his pride to ask him to get out of the car. Not our usual driver change, but we recouped thing and it's worked out.
"He (Scott Pruett) said great job. It's clean. He left me just enough room down the front straight away and he knew he got boxed going through Turn 6. Not much he could do. I think we had the pace on the (No.) 01 guys today. Bodes well for the future, I think."
Alex Gurney (No. 99 GAINSCO Auto Insurance Pontiac Riley; first, Daytona Prototype): "I think so. I mean Jon made a great pass into the Corkscrew. Looked like Scott tried to immediately tried to hit him and you know, a little unsportsmanlike there but they don't like it when we beat them. We'll see. We have a great car. I think we're good to the end, so we'll see how it goes.
"It's really important. We've never won with this car. It will be really special. We both have our families here and a bunch of GAINSCO people. We'd love to pull it off.
"The way it worked out a bunch of the other drivers had to do their driver change when we did our stop. There wasn't that much of a penalty. We had a lot of speed and Jon drove an amazing stint at the end. We couldn't be happier. We finally won here at (Mazda Raceway) Laguna Seca."
Scott Pruett (No. 01 TELMEX Lexus Riley, second, Daytona Prototype): "It is and you know, the (No.) 99 guys ran strong. Traffic didn't work our way today. The Ganassi guys we needed to get the momentum going, get back on the podium. Memo did a great job, so did the crew. We're real happy. My family is here. Hi to my family at home that is not here. We're real happy. Everybody did what we should be doing now we're back at the front and we can stay at the front and fight for a championship. Not an easy fight. The cars got some nicks, missing a couple of dive planes out front.
"That is part of (Mazda Raceway) Laguna Seca. It's touch and go all the time literally. It's real close, real tight, even when you are not trying to get into guys, they may be checking for a guy in front of them. It's part of the track."
Memo Rojas (No. 01 TELMEX Lexus Riley; second, Daytona Prototype): "Luckily we were able to take a direction, pass him on the left. The car kept spinning in that direction; it didn't hurt anything. We really struggled Friday and we took a good direction on Saturday and made the car right. We struggled the last two races and hopefully we'll keep the ball rolling and keep on the podium the rest of the season."
Max Angelelli (No. 10 SunTrust Ford Dallara; third, Daytona Prototype): "We had the best car on the track. I set my fastest lap when I overtook (Burt) Frisselle. It's a shame the No. 2 car got between me and Pruett on the last lap because I was sure I was going to get around him. That is what took the second-place finish away from us. This was good for the championship today, but we need to win. Third is good. Second is good. But, we definitely need to win. We're strong. We're fast. We're capable. And we're definitely going to do it, I believe."
Brian Frisselle (No. 10 SunTrust Ford Dallara; third, Daytona Prototype): "Overall, it was a good effort by the team. The SunTrust car was, arguably, the best car on the track. Both Max and I set some of the fastest laps of the race during our stints. So, it's a little disappointing when you have a car that's that good and come away with third. But, in the big picture of things, it's a good points day and we've just got to take it from here and keep on digging and working toward making the car this good at every track."
Sylvan Tremblay (No. 70 Castrol Syntec/Mazdaspeed Mazda RX-8; first, GT): "This is our home track, man. I mean just all the credit to the crew. The car was so — I've never driven car as good as this Mazda RX8 was here at Mazda raceway. Nick did the perfect stint. David Haskell, Matt, Marc, everybody the strategy was spot on. We were hooked up and gone." (I know you really wanted the championship last year. things got out of hand. how big is this win this early on?) "It's huge. we needed this. the team needed this. we're back now. ready to just start grinding out results, and trying to win it for Mazda."
Nick Ham (No. 70 Castrol Syntec/Mazdaspeed Mazda RX-8; first, GT): "We just had a good car. I had so much confidence starting this race. We changed some sway bars yesterday and I had just so much confidence in our game plan. It was just a delight to drive; credit to the team. I'm really happy for my buddy Sylvain. I'd have to say it's a huge win for him. He's had a tough year so far."
Paul Edwards (No. 07 Pontiac/Las Vegas Bike Fest Pontiac GXP.R; second, GT): "How we started the weekend we were behind the eight ball. The Mazdas and Porsches were on top of their game. Shows the effort the banner team has. We had five more setup changes before the race. The longevity of the car came to me. We're really happy for the whole team. It was a tough weekend and coming out of here second after 15th at jersey is a good result."
Kelly Collins (No. 07 Pontiac/Las Vegas Bike Fest Pontiac GXP.R; second, GT): "My stint was really short. We had a game plan that I was going to drive to 30 or 40 minutes, Paul was going to get in. Basically, my stint went pretty good. When everybody else pitted, I tried my best to hold them off. We'd been having problems with my car all weekend. The greasiness of the track allowed our performance to get better matched to the traffic. The track wasn't as bad as we thought it would be. All in all a second place is a really good finish."
Leh Keen (No. 87 Farnbacher Loles Racing Porsche GT3; third, GT): "The best thing for us was to stay out and we had better tires than the rest of the guys."
Dirk Werner (No. 87 Farnbacher Loles Racing Porsche GT3; third, GT): "I'm really happy to be in the series. My goal is to be successful and we're successful like we are now in the series especially with the competition. The Grand-Am Series was very close today to race against. I didn't have any more at the end of the race. I just didn't want to make a mistake. The problem right now is we can't really push too hard. We always have to try to be conservative but not to be too slow. This race really was a good race for us I think because we're close to the championship lead now and I think that's what matters."
