Lots of "war-wounds" on mine. Works well ... even when curb-jumping DTM style.

Skid plate info HERE.

So is oil starvation the likley cause of the motor's premature demise?

Didn't bother tearing down the motor, but it is either that, or Omar sold me a Lemon

Couple Videos from the Watkins Glen Club race. Sprint one kinda boring except at the 4:30 mark where were there is a stopped cayman sitting in the toe of the boot. Started first in class, and once all the faster GTB Cars went, was out there by myself just maintaining lead. 2nd sprint a bit more exciting. Battled a damn J class GT3 the whole race. Needed to get by him because H field was right up on me. Finally had a good run out of the Esses, dive bombed him into the bus stop, went in ssde by side, by he backed out and I took position. Had him hounding my mirrors the whole race. Enduro Started 4th and took overall lead by end of first lap. But after 58 minutes, ran out of gas and pulled a DNF. Did run fastest lap in H for the weekend of 208.8

looks like 'sideways Evan' is having difficulties keeping the yellowbird pointed in the desired direction
