Thanks, my friend.

Anything I can do to serve a fellow RLer in need! Here's a basic profile shot of Schmidtwerk's RS.

He was parked at an angle, so I adjusted the camera to tilt the rest of the world around the 993.
Pretty standard view of the world for most of us

J,

Excellent photography... Wish I had known you'd be there - could have met up for a few drinks....

Anyway, thanks for posting your pictures - very interesting to see how others viewed the same cars I saw.

My favorite shot of yours is the the front corner of the orange & white 908 (?) a few pages back. Ay chance of getting that in high res??

RJT

Anyone care for one of these??

Oh come on now...........you should know that's a loaded question in relation to IMSA in the early '80's. (Did I mention my friend who owns an IROC-converted-to-935-being-converted-back-to-IROC that was ex-Pablo Escobar. He also owned both of the Coke liveried Akin cars.)

The other 8C that was over at Quail Lodge at sunrise when we were doing the PCA Panamera event.

I sort of remember the 80's.................... I was a good girl though and only heard about Coke and racing second hand. SOme of those guys are still behind bars??

There were a few cool British cars:

Spartan interior. Who says we need all those bells and whistles anyway? Guess Herb didn't want to misplace his key.

Or dead............

One time I go up early to an IMSA event at Sears, circa 1981-2, and there's these two South/Central Americans who ran in the a-step-down GTO class with a Mustang and a Corvette. Their pit crew all had matching shirts--Hells Angels, Titusville, FL. Pauls, Whittingtons, Lanier, J David Dominelli (Ponzi scheme)........it went on and on.

And to clarify, the friend here locally owned the Akin cars at some point recently (had to buy them both as a package deal), not Pablo Escobar.

RJT

Gotcha....

I remember the Whittingtons (father and son). That's about the time I got interested in racing. I am glad I wasn't involved in racing during that decade.


Speaking of racing and my olden days. It was fun catching up with Hurley during the weekend. He is always such a gentleman and was a pleasure to work with. I'd love to work with him again one day.... ONE DAY.......
