Re: Daytona 24 Hr practice results

2002-01-12 by mark_saxby

Hi guys,

Although the Grand Am results show Lockie/Euser in the Mantara the 
photo clearly shows a Mantis GTO car (albeit a very smart one) and 
the car is listed as GT, whereas last years car was a GTS like the 
Corvette.

The Mantis has never been competitive with the Porsche in GT/NGT, so 
it's not suprising that the car was not faster. There's also 
considerable doubt that Lockie and Euser actually drove the car - 
More info on my site, if I can find some! :^)

Cheers,

Mark
