Laguna Seca WSC

["Dave Lehmann" <DaveLehmann@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The sportscasters were unaware of the last minute drivers change for the PTG
team.
It was P. Cunningham and Bill Auberlen  that shared car 1.  Peter also
pulled double duty and shared car 6 with Mark Simo.  Peter had the shunt in
the nmbr. 1 car which allowed the nmbr. 6 car to finish ahead of car 1.
That's what cost Bill Auberlen the championship.
