On another board that I visit, this picture was posted in a thread about closed-top prototypes. The thread morphed into, "Where was this picture taken?"
Now, the best clues for trying to come up with the answer seem to be possibly identifying the cars in the background.
Can anyone narrow it down?
It looks like its at Roger Penske's place, California Speedway. I believe I have een that blue car in the backround.
I see four 914's
What board is this from?
and it looks like the sail of a 5th in front of the black tool box, and a green 914 in front of the white and orange car. Willow springs?
I race in the HSR vintage series and those Porsches do also. A lot of GTP cars run in HSR so it is fitting that the one pictured would be there. Can't identify the track though. HSR runs primarily in the east (except Miller this past July). The regular schedule includes Sebring, Daytona, Watkins Glen, Barber, Road Atlanta, VIR and Savannah. Hope this helps.
Looking closer at the truck on the left that is Zotz Racing out of Florida who runs the full series of HSR.
A view of a couple of license plates sure would be nice.
That's a Lola Group C car that never raced in IMSA. I've seen that car at east coast HSR races. I know it has raced at Daytona.
I could beat it in a an a/x.
Thanks everyone for your input. I've been informed that the location where this picture was taken is Sebring. I really didn't realize that there were so many 914s in the picture until I started to try to determine the location. I was looking mostly at the car in the foreground.
As to the car in the foreground, Paul nailed it. It is a Lola T92-10. It is a Group C car that was built in 1992. It is one of three made. It has specs that would make Paul jealous. It weighs 1,700 lbs. and is powered by a 4 litre V10 Judd engine that puts out 650+ bhp.
I'd like to see how this one would fare at an AX against Paul and his 914.
Make the course VERY tight with a few 180 degree turns and I'd beat him. But the course can't have any straight sections over 50'.
I have some pictures of that bad boy at LeMans.
Paul,
Here is where the picture came from...

So, I count 6 914's in the picture. Anybody on this board?
