Porsche Suffers Disaster In IMSA Charlotte Roval Sprint Race

After the sixth IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Championship round Porsche has still not found its way to victory lane. Of the three manufacturers in the class, BMW has two wins, Corvette has four, and Porsche none.

In all the sports car races I've attended, it's usually the shrill scream of the RSR which forces me to cork my ears the most. The note itself is blaring, but its almost subdued compared to the deafening pops of upshifting which punctuate it.

Porsche always has a strong showing at Sebring International Raceway in Florida.
