Good Luck! The cars looked great at the test. We will be sure to stay out of your way in our little ST Porsche Just don't run us over when you come by. We have worse odds in ST. 2 Porsche's against 42 ST cars.

Folks,

I set this thread to be notified when people reply. I had no idea so many replies had been made! Thanks to everyone for all of the great wishes!!!

Safe travels to everyone that is making the trip to sunny Daytona, as the weather will be great. And as Cory says, we are pitted right next to the Autometrics Boxster so the Porsche family has strength in numbers!

Thank you again all!

John

P.S. Mike, I'm sure you can probably find a room with 20 minutes of the track. Maybe 30. Just look north towards Ormond by us. The further out you go from the Speedway, the better the odds.

Brad,

Feel free to stop by whenever. I will definitely be around after the race, but I might be hard to find, as I am hoping to be at post-race impound with 2 cars!

Thanks again.

John

We are actually working on that right now! But I have no idea if we will be able to get enough bandwidth to make it worthwhile. We shall see.

Turner is streaming a live webcam from their pitbox the entire race:

And I'll be posting enough twitter updates to lose half of the few followers I have by the time I get back home monday night.. that's the plan anyway. :P

I know I know...we are working on it. I bet though that if we had 2 GT cars like Turner and Magnus, we could probably be streaming as well! Given that a budget for 1 car for the 24hour is roughly $275K, I'm assuming that it's a bit easier to hide a wireless feed in a $550K budget than it is when you're running 2 GS cars in the 3 hour! But we are on it!
