Henry Kowalski is the photographer and he does a great job--I have a number of CD's he shot of my car and I agree they are very good. My avatar was shot by him. He can also do posters and recently I believe he started doing calenders. BTW, he is a former Grand-Am Cup driver.

dmw44. you were working corner 5? You didn't happen to see a spring fly off of a gray SP2 944 # 308 did you? The car I put a pic up of earlier? He was winning his class (of only two cars) beating his friend by about 40 seconds or so and went wide to let a faster car go by, he got in the marbles and went off of the track and ended up hitting a big hole or something and broke the rear coilover with about 2o min to go. He came back to the pits with the drivers rear sitting really low, rubbing the tire and the spring was missing. We were able to go walk the track and look for it but never found anything. I havent talked to him since yesterday he might have gotten it back by now. He said this all took place at turn 5 so I was just wondering if you saw anything. Kinda sad only 20 min left and he won his class sprint race saturday.

Btw thanks for the pic. That car looks awesome.

Jim B idk if you saw it or not but it looks like i got a shot of your car in one of the pics i put up earlier, the one with the cayman. I have a bunch more pics im gonna try to put a few more up.

Jeeze Colin did you have go and post the results. I was just beginning to forget them. My favorite part was losing to Chris Dooley who didn't even finish the race!

Eon, that is my car behind the RSCS. I'd love to see any pics you have.

Anyone see the Gold Enduro sheets yet? I know there was a quite a discussion about the black flag all, pit stops, and running order at the end of the race. I wonder if they sorted it out yet and made it official?

The pace car came out right in front of me, it was kinda cool to look in the rear view mirror and see the field stacked up behind me. If only I could have finished with that kind of view.

I did make sway bar setting changes for the enduro and picked up 2 seconds a lap! I'll take it!

Great job to everyone who kept their noses clean and stayed out of trouble. Its hard to do at that track, for sure! It is SCARY fast in the tri oval braking in to T1!

I believe this is the only other one I have. I didnt get to take any pics of the enduro we only stayed for the first one because we had to head home. I have them in a much larger size if you want me to email them to you. I also have pics of many other cars if anybody wants me to check just give me a car # and a type i have mostly 944s lol sorry guys....

Leh no one has this, they have not developed a camera with a shutter speed fast enough.

1.49? Dayum.

Nice driving. If my car had stayed together I would have enjoyed getting lapped in the enduro. First my #4 coil goes out before qualifying, then I brake an axle in the chicane, then my power steering pump goes in the enduro.....

Oh well CMP is in a few weeks.

Leh, Your driving makes the car not the other way around. Tough to beat your WG video from dead last to first in 3 (?) laps.

Chris, Sorry to hear about the mechanicals. I know you are wicked fast at CMP but I will try to stay on the same lap.
