The 24 hour race just finished, and I'm sorry to say that Ferrari had a bad race. The story we got is that the timing chain, which is apparntly linked to the oil pump setup failed. The engine was chaneged in three hours and the same failure happened again, causing the car to catch fire. The chains were supposed to be rated for 6000 hours. I hope they do better next year

There's a 24 hour race happening right now at Bathurst here in OZ. Ther's a 360GT racing with factory support. Ferrari have sent one of Shuey's top F1 engineers for tech support. The 360 was leading when I last got an update about 4 hrs ago. I can't get the damn web site to load with the latest results. Check out www.bathurst24hr.com I'll post how the Ferrari went tomorrow when the race is over
