  • Redwood Region Newsletter Newsletter
    Laura and Dan Boeschen, Peter Grauman, Penni Gladstone, Greg Fuller... My Week at Daytona with The Racer's Group David Bunch As many of you know, I was given the opportunity go to Daytona Beach Florida for the Grand Am Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona with fellow Redwood Region member Kevin Buckler's The Racers Group. TRG had entered seven GT3 Cup Porsches in the 24 Hour race and three 997's in the Koni Challenge race. What is involved in this type of effort, I will try to tell you. Well, it starts out with 7 brand new GT3's, some that TRG picked up in Florida when in town for the December test at Daytona. When these brand new GT3's arrive at the TRG shop in Petaluma they are taken apart and reassembled to TRG's specifics. Also there is the work on the new 997's to get them ready. To get these ten Porsches to Daytona for the races require a convoy of three semi-trailers and three two-car trailers. Not only having to haul ten Porsches, but spare body parts, engines, mechanics tool boxes, tires, six sets of rims per car, boxes of TRG apparel (shirts, sweaters, t-shirts, jackets, fire suits, hats) and everything else for the effort. For a race lasting 24 hours, each car needs 4 or 5 drivers. Some of the drivers were professional drivers who make a living at this, and some were "gentleman" drivers who have driven in different club races etc. TRG had entered 33 drivers including four factory drivers from Porsche.
