Default Isn't it illegal to use "bigwig" and "Telly Savalas" in the same sentence ?

...or was it some sophisticated joke ?

Cathy Rigby without her wig is probably a very scary sight.

Default A handful of my clients represent those statistics! : ) The RSR already raced at Spa last

year.

Saw the car at the Porsche Awards Dinner in Dec at Weissach.

Very cool car.

Default Best looking thing Porsche has made in a LONG time to me. Drooled over it at Petit last year,

but it doesn't seem like a good sign that Peterson (Petersen?) is switching to the F430...

Do you know which GT2 team is going to be getting factory drivers now that AJR is out of ALMS?

Default Not sure about the Peterson thing, but Jorg was not a factory driver while at Peterson, nor was

Enge and obviously not Peterson.

Factory driver in GT was Rockenfeller at AJR. Thiemann was not af true factory driver, but a "recommended" driver.

No idea what will happen with the PFD's for 2007.

As for the 997 at Petit, that was not the same car. It was a mule and was far less developed, The car that ran at Spa was very, very close to the one here, but still different.

Wasn't Pat at Peterson last year, or was he with AJR in both series?

Default You are correct, sort of. Pat ran many races with PWL, but not the full season.

Only with AJR in Rolex and with Penske in ALMS.

Default So... yeah... I saw it the day after I made that initial post.

There were 2 there, the Bell car and a Farnbacher car.

Those are two of the sexiest things on 4 wheels I have seen in a long time. Looked like they were running well too.
