Usually I wouldn't post a link to this but since there are a couple of pictures of the OLC and since I wrote it with some gracious editing from Mary I thought it might be of interest...

Great job guys. One thing that's always bothered me about the One lap is that its always so hard to find out much real information on the cars. I always see the coolest cars in the articles and pictures but have a hard time tracking down mod lists. Sometimes there is some info on the one lap page and of if you're lucky you can ferret out their web page, but I always end up vaguely disappointed. That one guy who won in a 996 Porsche 4 years in row (DaSilva ?) took me forever to track down what was done to his car.


Anyway, great job with the Camaro.

Mmmmm, I might be nitpicking but this caught my eye:

Automotive artist Rene von Richthofen (descendent of Manfred von Richthofen, aka legendary World War II ace the Red Baron).

Mary's editing w.r.t. history failed! ;)

Good catch... stuff happens in editing.

They didn't print the captions that I did up for the images but I wanted to point out that the 944 that placed First in Vintage Foreign was LS powered.
