Beautiful car! I like the graphics.. Any lap times from the race available in Rudskogen, or Class ranking?

You must know Hans Frisak he goes there sometimes, he built himself a nice Street/track 993TT.

Unfortunately it is my car

Porsche Techs were supposed to change a small oil hose (red circle) as part of an overall checkup of vacuum and pressure lines, oil hoses and general torquing, with the engine out before race season. They decided not to and wrap it instead. The hose ruptured, dripped oil on the header heat wraps during the race, soaked them, and caught fire.. At the same time the engine also blew as a result of them fitting wrongly some vacuum/boost lines which boosted the engine to 1.6 Bar and detonated..
