Car and Driver entered 10 drivers in the Nelson Ledges 24hr race for the helluvit. The managed to put it on its roof but still win their class (of ONE). They give minor props above a picture of the overall-winning #23 Miata: "another Miata, fieled by Team CRS, took first place overall. They did it with only four drivers. Go figure."
Page 77 of the March issue (it is still January, isn't it?).
You guys are famous! Sort of...
Congrats again on the win

We've been waiting to see what they might publish on that. If memory serves, they didn't out it on its roof once, they did it twice. That car was demolished by the time they were done, I looked at it on the trailer at dawn and what wasn't dented was covered in scratches & sod.
When everyone was on the grid I told the C&D photographer "make sure you get plenty of shots of that car" and pointed to the 23 car. I guess he listened.
All 4 CRS drivers are COM members, as were most of the crew.
On a similar note there were at least 2 COM members driving in the 24 hours of Daytona this past weekend. Bruce Ledoux and James Sofranas (you need to go back a ways to see James at a COM event though).
