The number 3 car finished second in class. It crossed the finish line sideways, thanks to being deliberately crashed into the wall by the class winning Porsche. The number 4 was several laps down, it ran into and took out a couple of other cars. Lou Gilloti's Vette was about 9th in class, I think.

Default Porsche team car.

This is a post-race picture of the #44 Flying Gizzard Porsche. Not a spot on it. I guess Jorg hasn't taught his co-drivers how to win.

Nice seeing our returned hero, Chad, enjoying all the female companionship. I'm sure he enjoyed that more than hanging with you leg humpers.

Great pics Earl ... Welcome home Chad!
