TheRaceSite reports that Said/Stuck's BMW M3 was DQ'ed for a too large fuel tank, ironically handing the win to Barbour's Luhr/Muller Porshe(Barbour being DQ'ed at Le Mans for the same problem)



And great to see David Donohue (and co driver Tommy Archer) win a race. Upstage that "A" Viper team

[Liz]

I'm watching that race now. Guess I can go to bed, eh? Shame about the Panoz.

[Jared]

Shame about the BMW. I watched that race again last night, and it seemed the Barbour Porsche and the BMW were never more than two seconds apart the entire race. Very entertaining.

But what a performance by Audi. Dominant to say the least. I certainly hope Panoz corrects whatever problem they have in time for Mosport.

[Liz]

Me too. I am an hour and a half from Mosport but can't go to the race as you need a car to get there. Drat!
