Our team's entry ready for battle! Team Pit Crew Revenge#2!! complete with 'pre-emptive' team flag!
so, considering:
-expected 100F ambient temps this weekend
-Endurance format
-lots of contact
-200Kmiles on the motor
What odds do y'all give us of milking this poor Jetta 16v to the finish??? hmmm...:uhh:
Wish us luck! I'll try to post more pics from the track this weekend

Race Recap:
our car received successful radiator transplant in time to take the Green Sunday morning! car charged thru the field picking up at least 16 places in the morning and early afternoon. Unfortunately, with under 2 hours remaining, the Jetta suffered a blown CVJ, stuck on track. without a spare, or much time, our race was done. Team Pit Crew Revenge #15 Jetta finishes in 46th place out of 83.
more Sunday pics added to Photobucket link above ^ ^ ^
