Will Robusto jumped to the top of the time sheets in the second and final Toyota GR Cup North America practice session prior to qualifying for this weekend’s pair of races at Road America.

The RVA Graphics Motorsports by Speed Syndicate driver reeled off a chart-topping 2:31.259 in the session to outpace second-placed Parker Delong by 0.275 seconds.

Delong is making his Pirelli GT4 America debut this weekend in Advance Motorsports’ McLaren Artura GT4.

Beltre Curtis rebounded from a session-ending accident on Thursday to set the third quickest time in his Copeland Motorsports Toyota GR 86 Cup car, while Ethan Goulart and Max Schweid completed the top-five.

Points leader Spike Kohlbecker was sixth on the time sheets.

The session saw two red flags, the first No. 78 BSI Racing Toyota of Ethan Ayars, who had an incident in the third sector of the track.

The second red, which brought the session to an early end with two minutes to go, was for the the No. 85 Eagles Canyon w/ Fast Track entry of Ava Schletz, who went off at The Kink and came to a halt at Kettle Bottoms.

Multiple cars had off-course excursions around the four-mile circuit, kicking up a considerable amount of dust along the way.

Qualifying 1 is set for Saturday at 9:35 a.m. CST with the first race of the weekend on tap for 5:10 p.m. CST with live coverage on SRO’s GT World YouTube channel.
