I think the 911 got 3rd overall. They either changed engines or rebuilt their engine on Friday, and still got 3rd. The other amazing thing to me, was that a Honda Civic won overall. I went over to see what the heck kind of engine was in it, but he never opened the hood after the race. It was one fast car.

I know that very few people at Rennsport III give a big rat's patooie about the 944's, but does anyone know how many showed up? We took 2 944's to the 13 Hour at VIR this last weekend, so I missed Rennsport. The team I was on, had nothing but trouble. We thought it was the trans, but I think it was the clutch. The other car did pretty well, got 5th in ITS. Hated to miss Rennsport, especially since we did so lousy. Just stumbled around, getting in a lot of people's way. Real bummer. In retrospect, should have spectated at Daytona.
Oh well

I'll have video clips posted shortly. I'm still in Central Florida as I'm participating on the HSR races this weekend.
Great pics but what "no pictures of me???" I ended 7th overall and 1st 2 liter (we'll perhaps 2nd as Hurley is listed as a 2 liter...).
Nice seeing you guys up there!

I should've known, we were in infield T3 and me & MJ were commenting on #1 996 RSR's driving: "there's someone who hauls *** and uses the whole track" as most of the guys were nowhere near of using the whole track there. We didn't check the times but most of the guys in your group were way off the line and looked slow but #1 was hauling it, glad to hear it was you!
I'm not sure if Juha has any pics of you from Friday but unfortunately he won't have any pics from Saturday (the night before drinking took it's toll...)

Leh--I instructed one of my workers at Turn 5 (not flagging your race) to concentrate on taking pictures of you/your car during the race. As soon as he forwards them to me I'll post them and forward them to you.

Juan,
You were looking good all weekend. There were so many cars to see, I simply could not look up to find the Rennlisters there. I had my face buried in the camera all weekend, or was intently watching the racing.
Great job of droving fast!
