Watched it on SPEED also. CONGRATS!!!!
I like the "help" from the other Vette too on the Porsche (it just worked out that way). Vettes needed a win- great to see Lou get it.
Sweet victory.

That Volvo driven by Bell was kicking *** too!

That other vet was driven by Leighton Reese and that was a hell of a race against Wolfie for the second spot! Too bad Leighton and Wolfie lost tires on that move but...You just got to know that Wolfie was certainly giving Lou something to think hard about up to that point.

When all 3 of them were duking it out, the race was VERY interesting to watch. Lou would pull away from the Porsche on the straights, but the Porsche would outbrake him and make up the ground (at least it seemed that way).

The SPEED guys did a great job of advertising Lou's headers too- that was great!

Ya, I almost dumped all my popcorn in the floor!
I think Lou had enough brake to handle the Porsche, it was the tires I was wondering about.

I bet everyone watching knows about LG PRO long tube headers now! Nice plugs for Lou's headers...I wanted to run out and buy some...and I don't even own a Vet!!
Hmm, maybe Lou can retro-fit some to my Jag,

I watched that race.... we want video dammit!

I heard he was running some 1:39's around Infineon. Most very fast well prepared street borderline race cars pull low 1:50's on that track. His car certainly hauls ***.

thanks guys,

We had Dino Crescentini in the car for Portland and we did two in a row. Dino helped the team make the west coast swing. I got to race Infineon and he got to race Portland.

Dino qualified 4th and took the win! He led the last 8 laps after passing the German Super Cup champion. Second place was another Corvette C6 driven by Leighton Reese.

Great weekend. I will be back in the car at Denver in 10 days. I have to add 95 pounds to my car for my Infineon win.

see you at the races.


Thanks
Lou G

How about 20% off coil overs for staying up late and rooting fot you, even though it was recorded and there no chance that my mojo had a ounce of help with regards to outcome!
