JPChenet (Mark) and I are the guys that got the whole bonnet section of that Sebring racing Viper #71. I gave the whole piece to a guy in Florida to cut it in half for us then he UPSed it to me in Texas. I took Mark's half to him on the plane thinking are they going to confiscate this contraband? We met up in London. He bought me a beer, we had a good time, the wives just looked at us and shook their heads in disgust. We met up again at Le Mans to continue the parteeeeeeee. Still have my trophy and in fact I'm looking at it right now.
Would love to see Vipers and what ever else join in the GT-1 class. I think Corvette and Aston are ruining the class by such domination. It's a pity that no one else in the world can compete with these two. It's becoming a little bit dull like GT-1 was with just Porsche taking it every race and Audi in P-1 doing the same. Competition among different makes is better in my opinion. Otherwise it's Nascar, same car just different logos. Give me the day when there were real Dodges, Plymouths, Ford, Mercury's, Chevy's, Hudson's, yeah Hudson Hornets. Those were the days for real racing for stockcars. Even F-1 is so boring even though there are different makers, they all look alike, sound alike and virtually perform alike, just different paint jobs. Oh well, how did I get off on this tangent?
