I was watching....from 2002-04 I worked for G&W Motorsports, which was a IMSA team back in the day.

Cool! Did the open wheel thing for years including Indycar. Got out in 2008 to move in Florida to work as a Gbox guy for a DP team. Did Daytona with a GT3 in 2009 then got out of racing after a rough year. Did few weekend warrior gig since... Sebring 12hrs twice, Petit LeMans. Miss racing but not really.
 
About done restauring a Porsche 962, should be in Sebring this year for the 12 hrs. The car won back in 85 or 86... with 3 wheels left on it LOL (no joke)

Do you by any chance work for Kevin Jeannette??? Gunnar Racing?.........way cool, I miss it but I don't also....rough way to make a living. I was at Sebring in 1987 and watched Bobby Rahal win driving the Budweiser 962 car

I live in lynchburg, VA.....I lived in Danville when I worked for G&W....which was at the Raceplex at VIR.  I love that place....that's where I do most of my track days.  When I was a kid the lived in Boca Raton FLa. back in the 70's, then Vero Beach in the 80's.  When I retire would like to move back.  BTW....that Picchio DP was a piece of SH*T!....
