Post Why is there always a 911 on the homepage of Rennlist?

Is it me or have I never seen a 944 on the opening page of Rennlist?

Can we do a class action suit for discrimination?

It probably has something to do with current models. Or... It's a dark and nefarious plot by secretive Order of the 911. In fact, I've said too much... <img src="graemlins/icon501.gif" border="0" alt="[icon501]" />

I believe you may be referring to the Racer's Group car? Blue GT3RS? That's the car we as Rennlisters are sponsoring - Kevin Buckler runs this car in ALMS and SpeedGT. Until Porsche makes another current race platform, I'm afraid it's 911's only. The New Speed classing for next year joins GTS and AGT, and makes way for new prototype - One of the approved entried is a Porsche powered FABCAR design... some brief info in the current Excellence, IIRC (maybe Grassroots Motorsports also)

I seriously doubt that "the management" means any harm by not prominently displaying a 944 or the like. "They" (the management) used to own a 944.

Is "used to" the key phrase here???????????????

I'm proud of Kevin and what the Racers Group has accomplished-still with Rosswell, Dallas, etc. we can't rule out a Porschegate on the list. <img src="graemlins/icon107.gif" border="0" alt="[icon107]" />

HA! Well, I do love the Current Pseudo-Factory Race Cars - if that's what you mean. Wouldn't kick a tail-dragger out of my garage just for leaking oil, either. Though, I get equally excited to see David Finch run the Mid-Ohio course every year in Franken'44. If not for a bogus penalty last year, he would have claimed another title in the "Anti-Porsche".

I am not DeepThroat, though I did meet her once <img src="graemlins/xyxwave.gif" border="0" alt="[bigbye]" />

I would so enjoy watching the whining between the air-cooled guys when they saw a 951 on the front page....

Usually that's it, but the car I saw this morning was the yellow Ruf 'R' Turbo from the Goodyear site.

I'll let John answer that one if he wants - but, from what I remember, they didn't really have a choice in getting rid of it - the car got really hot one day, and...
