964 RS wins Britcar??

[johnny senna]

I heard that a 964 RS driven by Piers Maserati et al won its class at the Britcar 24 hours. I also heard that Henry Firman kindly donated the engine out of his own 964 RS road car to the team because the race engine leaked oil (NEVER?? ON A 964 RS??!! )
Anyway, anyone know the story of this team?? Would a 993 RS have beaten them??

Yup, 1st in class, 10th overall after blowing their only engine in qualifying and having to install a road engine.
Good work boys!

I hear that Andy Fearns was the mechanic for the team, is this right? Top marks to Henry BTW.

No It was Blue and it was great it got to the end as a fresh engine fro th24 is a good idea ......
