    I don't thinl SCG003 is being built to GT3 regs? Is it even homolagateable in that category? I think they are designing it to confirm within VLN regs. Arrest me if I'm wrong.

    Thank you all for your kind words!

    This was one terribly difficult race on a track that gives you no respite and that can be treacherous as we saw.

    I still can't believe we won and dominated!! 4 more points in Germany and the championship is mine!! Fingers crossed!!!!

    Yes, that was the class I was referring to. I don't believe you can race with one-off's in the GT3/SP9 class?

    apologies for the watermarked photo, but as you can see the F1 garages are built on a hill, and there's a big drop off where the trucks park. I'm actually surprised this doesn't happen more often.

    Latest news is that Mahy is conscious and reacting. Thank goodness. All others are apparently fine

    Marcus had his unstable C-2 fracture repaired Monday am 28 July...I consulted with the neurosurgeon/resident/interns on the case preop to make sure their plan was OK,procedure went well but now have to wean off respirator and see if any anoxic/hypoxic brain deficit from the lack of O2...could not place oral airway on track and required emergent tracheostomy while on track!!! Prayers continue but he is moving legs,arms and responded to my voice while in hospital....congratulations to #51/Peter Mann...I will see you at Nurburgring in Sept. IlDottore
