    When you get the results they'll be willing to share the credit though.

    Without any insider information, I predict everyone will be pleasantly surprised at how great those pinstripes are going to look after dusk!

    We have a spare nose and tail. Car is pretty strong as it's all CF and can take quite a hit without issue.

    The pinstripe color on the back background remind me of Ayrton.


    Good luck Jim!

    We can change both faster than we can refuel.

    Correct many F teams dont have the balls

    Farnbacher did well with 430GT 2nd OA in 2010
    Last year with 458GT2.......broken F suspension (rear) if it werent broken, 1st OA 80% sure :)

    So lack of interest by other F teams. When looking at Marc VDS and Vita4One they do GT1/GT3 AND 24H/VLN
    I sincerely hope AF Corse or other good names will join in 2013...........chance? 0% ;-)

    The 458's broken suspension and our chassis cracking tell the story.

    Ferrari's as built without massive re engineering don't have a
    chance of winning the 24 Hours of Nurburgring.

    Your comments and direct experience seem consistent with stories I read/heard of F race car development (or re-development) as far back as 60s sports car racing. Having been in pro motorsports business, I understand the additional resources (technical, political, financial) required to get to a competitive level and more especially achieve an "unfair advantage". Although I still very much respect its past motorsport accomplishments; as you know, Ferrari race resources are mostly spent in F1 (and yet they continue to struggle lately). Ferrari sports car racing success is very much in the hands of privateers.

    Anyway, I appreciate your efforts and commitment as a constructor. You seem to be enjoying the journey. Lastly, thanks for taking us for a vicarious ride in your journey.

    This makes the Porsche look like it has the ride height of a suburban.
