Lost N spaced finishes 2nd place.
That is now a 2nd in 2004 1st in 2005 and 2nd in 2006. Privately funded all amatuer racer team... 3 of the 4 drivers are current/former GGR TTers and AXers. 2 of the 3 drivers have been TTing/Axing for the same amount of time I have. Pretty good considering there were over 50 cars this year. Many of factory teams including 2 factory backed BMW turbo diesels. Many many professional drivers in very fast cars...but they couldn't beat a 32 year old street legal 911. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Dan failed to mention the late 1995 (or later) 993 3.6 liter engine in that early lightweight 911 chassis (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Not sure if they did a G50 in it or not (probably not)

Allows for drivers to drive a fast car without punishing motor. I can see how something like this would work well. Lighter weight car easier on brakes/tires, less fuel usage, motor put under less stress. Then its just a matter of survival and minimizing times in pits. |
