The race was a blast.... During the practice in the morning the rear crank seal started leaking, so we monitored the oil level for the rest of practice. The car drove great with Fred in there for the first hour 45, Then ian got in there and started complaining of a slipping clutch. Not something we were too excited to hear, luckily after going easy on it for a while it cooled down and started to grip again. With Ian in the car we gained some standing, then Greg miller took over and did a fantastic job with consistent times and smooth driving... Then ted got in the car and drove the piss out of it for 3 hours! In the end we finished 3rd in p2, even after having to fashion a tail light to the trunk lid, our fuel cell only picking up 16 of the 22 gallons, the car overheating, and pissing oil out the rear crank seal.... we still drove the car onto the podium! with the water at ~270! anyway it was a great weekend so here is a crappy camera phone pic.

A few shots I took:
P0 Cobra Mustang that was fast as hell for about 5 hours
The Green Dot car
Adair Motorsports e36 that won overall
Mike Helton's car
Our cool lights
Grassroots tail light install. An LED flashlight (I told you it wouldn't fall off Francis) with a red reflector tapped to it. Attached to a piece of cardboard (with tape), then about 40 yards more tape to hold it to the deck lid
Some of the happy crew after the race
Thanks to Josh H for getting those parts for us.
Ted - You deserve a ride an Grand Am or ALMS
