Schnitzer came in 1-2 with Ravaglia/Pirro in first car, and Soper/Giroix in second place. This is confirmed on Frank De Jong website, which lists the John Sax car finishing in 14th place.

Another thread going which you will be interested in:

Just watched footage of most of the race, car 57 which was the John Sax/Graeme Gulson car ended up park quite heavily into a concrete slab, and was dragged away by a tow truck about halfway through the race.Looked Australian built as it had Simmons wheels on it like yours. Kayne Scott was in another M3,with John Sorenson, finished 14th according to Frank DeJongs site. Another Australian built car ended up as a BMW "Art Car" which is on tour currently in NZ- going to see it in a week so will take some pics of it.
