Yap they sure did. They started 1& 2 & finished 1&2. Crazy story the Turner M6’s tire came off & rolled down the track.

The RSR were obviously the best car out there. Even when safety car came out and reformed the group, the steadily regained their margin, never really being challenged by the corvettes or ford GTs. The BMWs were not on the same level, far back from the leaders.

Btw, the RSRs were by FAR the loudest out there. It was great.

Bailey,

Great pics. Thanks. I'm looking forward to Petit le Mans at Road Atlanta in a couple months myself.


Is that red RUF car at the end of the set an RT12 (intakes in the tops of the rear fenders) or something else. Any more pics of that one?

Porsche corral. I went this yr in w/ the BMW corral. Last pic was mine. Security debated if I could take the bikes on top during the parade laps. In the end I had to ditch the bikes to go out on the track.
