968's at Sebring

Hi Folks,
Just thought I would share some pics and tales from last weekends Club Race at Sebring.
It was very interesting to see that in a class run of 77 cars, the top 7 cars were 951's and 968's......... and 13 out of the top 17 cars were 951's and 968's.
The class division was E so there was some reasonable fast machinery..... including much newer 911's.
Also a Rothmans Cup 951 and a nicely set up 968 took the fight right to a 996's in the higher divisions.... coming 2nd and 3rd I believe.
I have over 170 pics and about 50 mins of video......... I will be posting this on our website soon. I hope to have it up by Sunday.
One of the funniest things of the weekend....... heading back to our set up area I stumbled on a 968 that had a trailer hitch and a trailer pilled with tires hanging from the back of it!
You don't see that too often!
I was going to get a few more pics... but the owner was giving me a peculiar look and I did not want to seem rude, so I refrained.
Did any of you folks attend?
Cheers,
Paul R

How did Gary Grigsby do? I believe that is the white 968 you have in the picture.
Thanks, Mike

Jim,
Congratulations on a great finish!
I know Sebring is fabled to be very tough on cars, so your finish (and placement) is even more impressive considering the competition and the support some of them have.
Another notch in your belt, man.
It's nice to hear these stories...I wonder when I'll get the guts to talk to my wife about 'the next level' of driving?
I'd like to think that some day I'll be doing more than DE's.

Guys, as for the 968 with the trailer hitch, that is Nick.s car the 48 hour registrar. He used that when he drove his 944 to Des now he has upgraded ride to 968, smart boy that Nick.

BTW, Rich's car is really beautiful as can be seen in the picture above. His car won the best prepared award giving 968's another victory last weekend.
