Yeah, I like the car too but i have a question about the driver names. Derek and Justin Bell I recognize and Bob Holbert too but I wondered does anyone know if "Emory" is Gary or Rod?


Holbert is Todd Holbert, Al's Son & Bob's Grandson

The track's PA announcer said the transporter is not a real Porsche transporter. It's an American built truck.

I think it only ran once this weekend. This is the only shot I got of it on track.

On a side note, John Morton, yes ‘the’ John Morton flipped a BRE #46 replica on its lid today. He is ok. Car is not...

I saw this happen. A car spun and John was caught up in the fess and drove up over a car and did a slow roll on the roof.

Geez that's wild, glad he is ok -- I saw and photographed him flipping a Scarab at Laguna in '09 IIRC. Incredible he survived that one.

Thanks for posting. Brings back memories of the late seventies listening to Holberts car getting tuned up in a garage behind the engineering office I interned at in Warrington PA. Right behind the shopping center at Rt 611 and Bristol Rd.

I remember John Morton flipping one of the Nissan GTP cars in practice at Lime Rock. Came through the uphill turn a bit faster than usual and caught air under the front end as he crested the hill. The car flipped over backwards and landed on its top. As I recall, John suffered some small facial burns. He was out that weekend but back racing a few weeks later.

Looking at his head sticking out above the roll bar makes me feel all weird inside.
