Not far behind was St. Pete Race #2 winner George Kurtz in the #04 CrowdStrike Racing by Riley Motorsports Mercedes-AMG GT3 with a 1:42.294, and Jeff Burton clocking in a 1:42.345 behind the wheel of the #191 Zelus Motorsports Lamborghini Huracan GT3.
In GT4, it was all Aston Martin Vantage AMR GT4s in the top three spots, with St. Pete Race 2 winner Jason Bell setting a 1:47.567 in the #2 GMG Racing car, followed by Elias Sabo with a 1:48.027 in the #8 Flying Lizard Motorsport rig, and Ross Chouest in the #50 not far behind him with a 1:48.291 for Chouest Provoledo Racing.
