...Below are some photos my friend Bernie was able to snap while supporting two 935s at the HSR Sebring Endurance Challange (March 2-5, 2005). Unfortunately, I couldn't make this trip. Here is what Bernie had to say...
Armando, here are some of the photos from the HSR Sebring Endurance Challenge. It featured: Corvette & Chevrolet Challenge, Anglo-American GT Challenge ???
Jo bonnier Cup (2ltr. Sports Racers) Historic GTP & Group C (The good stuff 956, 962 ect.) Championship of makes (FIA), Historic GT (IMSA 935 OH YAAA BABY!)
Historic Stock car (Yawwwwn) Klubsport Challenge (356, 911 & 914-6) And WSC (Can you say AUDI R-8?) What a weekend!! Almost as good as Rennsport.
Friday was qualifying & sprint races with a one hour night enduro's for the Klubsport guys, Saturday more sprint races in the morning, a 3-Hour Vintage Enduro in the afternoon and a 1-Hour Historic (Our Guy's) night enduro (I tell you, there is nothing like watching a pair of K-27 turbos glowing cherry-red disappearing into the night, totally awesome!) Sunday were even more sprint races and a grand finale 3-Hour Historic Enduro IMSA cars again. All I can say is WOW, these guys know how to put on an event. Hopefully one day we will see something like this on the west coast. Bernie.
I saw the 935's without reading the text and thought vintage racing. Then I saw the R8 in the same picture; That Can't be right!!?? I guess it just goes to show you how long that thing has been around. If I had the cash, I would buy myself a Panoz 01 and make some noise;-) Thanks to you and your freind Bernie for the pics!
