Yeah had the same reaction. And I wonder if it was a coincedence that the driver (Kaffer) almost hit the eventual champ (Henzler), who was being contested by his teamate in second. Crazy stuff.

Here's a pic of one of the Team Farnbacher cars from the TWS clubrace...

Just so you know, there was a blizzard of protests after the 2003 Supercup series. After the dust settled Stippler has been crowned champion. Henzler lost 20 points because of having an illegal car at a race earlier in the season.

I think he had an illegal flywheel at Monaco, or something to that effect.

They can change only tire pressure, rear wing angle, alignment, shock compression, and shock rebound. That's it. Everything else is off-limits. The engine and gearbox are sealed and tampering results in immediate disqualification and fines.

In my ongoing search for the Silver '98 C4S, I bumped into this;
http://www.theracersgroup.com/cars/c...ale/03_cup.htm
Timing was great! Pulled up the images as I was watching the races the other night... too cool, and for a mere $99K you can play in Kaffer's toy! ;-)
