marendt428 is on a distinguished road
Hey, the new 991 in the race is the 911 RSR (see http://www.topspeed.com/cars/porsche.../pictures.html for some great photos)...next year will be great bc Porsche will be back in the prototype class taking on Audi R18 head to head. The driver who died was an Aston Martin driver and the favorite in the GTE pro class. His name was Allan Simonsen.
