ALMS confirmed they did in fact screw-up, they fixed the points today. It must have been the same official that drove the Audi pace car in the 2011 Le Mans season opener at Paul Richard !!!! (see below, unbelievable)

- There were 9 cars in the class (and a total of 8 teams).
- Only 7 of 9 were rewarded driver points and only 6 of 8 teams recieved team points

That usually means a DQ or a serious oversight by ALMS officials.
Probably because NGT are not enetered in the full championship? I will be doing Road Atlanta and Road America with them too, can't do Laguna due to a clash with Carrera Cup!

I will be driving my 550 from the UK to Monaco Via Nurburgring for a bit of a blast.

Are you doing the Carrera World Cup in June in Nurburgring??
Probably indeed, I see him when he is there!

Yes, it counts for both the Supercup and Carrera Cup Germany, so double points that weekend!!

No problem What's that, a track day? I am at Petit Le Mans that month, so possibly if someone wanted to employ me for coaching.

Rennsport Reunion 2011-

Best description I could find here:
http://www.racc.tk/popular-new-car-2...october-2.html

SE- not sure how this whole event goes down but I have to believe that if you happened upon LS that weekend you wouldn't have too much trouble getting yourself behind the wheel of a vintage Porsche racer (if you're into that sort of thing)
