Das Bruderduo setzte sich in einem turbulenten Rennen gegen den ABT-Audi R8 von Christer Jöns (23, Ingelheim) und Jens Klingmann (21, Leimen) durch. Dritte wurden die Sieger des Laufes vom Ostersonntag, Alexandros Margaritis (26, Griechenland) und Dino Lunardi (32, Frankreich) im LIQUI MOLY Team Engstler-BMW Alpina B6.

At the San Diego Wild Animal Park. The cheetah made two runs for us that afternoon. The trainers provide a favorite toy (each cat has their own favorite), that they draw across a long grass strip at high speed. The cheetah chases it--not really as prey, but for fun.
MCM and the #21 GTO.R had a good race until this point. Romeo would later say that his brake marker had been knocked away and by the time he realized it he was too far down the track. We were waiting for the next yellow to bring Romeo in and put Ryan Phinny out till the checker, unfortunately we became the reason for the yellow.
