LEXINGTON, Ohio (July 19, 2008) 聙聯 Tommy Archer, of Duluth, Minn., captured his second SCCA Pro Racing SPEED World Challenge GT pole of the season and will lead the field at the start of Sunday afternoon聙聶s Mid-Ohio SPEED GT Presented by Remington race. Brandon Davis, of Huntington Beach, Calif., will start second.Driving the No. 13 Foametix/Woodhouse Performance Dodge Viper, Archer set a time of 1:25.673 (94.882 mph) on his first flying lap around the 2.258-mile track. It is Archer聙聶s second top qualifying effort of the year, after winning from the pole position at Miller Motorsports Park in May. Following an engine failure at the previous round in Watkins Glen, Archer聙聶s team has been working non-stop to get him back up to speed.聙聹The Woodhouse Performance team has worked really hard as well as the Dodge engineers to come up with the fix for what the issue was,聙聺 Archer said. 聙聹I think they聙聶ve got it worked out. The handling of the car is decent. John Mills, the new engineer, and I are having a blast doing this. He聙聶s part time and I聙聶m part time, but when we聙聶re [at the track], we聙聶re full time trying to make it go fast. He hit on something yesterday afternoon that really felt good and we expanded on that and it went faster today. 聙聹After setting the pole time, Archer continued to make changes to the car, anticipating what the track conditions might be for the race more than 24 hours after Saturday morning qualifying.聙聹You think about that kind of stuff all through the weekend,聙聺 Archer said. 聙聹When you make your setup changes, you聙聶re thinking ahead. You have to anticipate what might happen in the race. That聙聶s why in the qualifying session, I made four stops. I was working hard to figure out what I wanted in the car for Sunday.聙聺Driving the No. 10 ACS/Sun Microsystems Ford Mustang Cobra, Davis appeared to be relegated to the second row until a late-session run resulted in a best lap of 1:26.055 (94.460 mph).Davis聙聶 lap relegated Jeff Courtney to third in the No. 99 KENDA/JTM/MPI Coin/Badger Dodge Viper with a best time of 1:26.215 (94.285 mph).
