Senic stuff, Mt. Lassen visible in the distance
The way-bitchin BMW/Car-Driver Diesels
The white one blew a motor or something, the other one ran well the whole race. Fast and super quiet.
Once the race started things went pretty well for a while. We lost a few laps early because we ran out of gas during a long caution. The pit steward told us we could not come in and sit during the yellow. So we stayed out and ran out of gas and had to wait for a tow in from the safety-truck. Minutes later the tower called to apologize for the error saying that we could in fact have come in and sat in the pit during the yellow provided we didn't touch the car. Lesson learned for us and a pit steward.
4.5 hours and 157 laps into the race.....bummer.
See through Miata motor #1. Note the cracks migrating all over the side of the block.
