Just look at what happened when Porsche showed up with the 917/30 in the CanAm and blew the McLarens (and others) away?

It's funny that no-one ever seemed to tire of McLaren winning race after race for almost the entire series, nor did anyone tire of many other manufacturers dominating series. For some reason Porsche just made everyone else look so bad at what they did............
Maybe that's where the "Nothing else comes close" line came from?
Yeah, yeah, that's the ticket!
I'm going to the St. Petersburg Grand Prix in a couple of weeks. They have ALMS as a companion event. I, too, will miss the Spyders.
