Default 1988 12 Hour Sebring Refenning, Baker & Bond

Found this photo on 901 Shop album (facebook) of one of our cars as raced in 1988 12 Sebring:

Name:  Porsche_20_slantnose_1988.jpg
Views: 466
Size:  107.7 KB

This car got "converted" to an '74 RSR that we campaigned for many years (from the 1980s on ...) ... and then restored to narrow body (Ivory color) longhood with no aero seen here in 2003 @ Jeff 500 ...

Name:  03-jeff-sp03b.JPG

and then finally sold.

I've never seen a car convert back from flares/slopenose. That's cool.

Well rounded too as at times Bob reminds me of another well known American author, Hunter S. Thompson.
