Cool AMLS @ Mid Ohio

Watched the race today and despite the GT3 RS' increased displacement, Ferrari took the win. Last year, at my dealer they said that Porsche's last best effort with the 911 would be to increase the engine to 4 liters. Doing so seemed to make them more competitive, but still not enough to beat Melo and Farnbacher in the Ferrari. Maybe they'll get it sorted out before the new M3s hit the circuit. I'll bet Porsche hopes so. Also noted that race at Barber includes a new mid engined V8 DP Porsche!

But I think that the Flying Lizards are still ahead in the points.....(?) Hope that Acura fuel guy recovers from his burns - not a nice incident....

Maybe last best effort before conceding to Caymans?
