< Back to News Home Team Sahlen's Leaves Lime Rock, Readies for Mid Ohio

Posted (06/01/2006) - Team Sahlen's Lime Rock Park experience was challenging for the Porsche based team. Joe and Wayne Nonnamaker drove the Team Sahlen No. 44 Porsche. Joe managed to move the car to a top-ten spot but during his co-driver's stint in the car a faulty suspension piece caused Wayne to lose control and sent him into the barrier. Wayne, who was not hurt, was disappointed and commented on the incident.

"The suspension piece was only two races old which was really strange but frustrating all the same. Dad had run the car up to 7th place and to have this happen was just unfortunate. The car was really running well," stated Wayne.

Joe Sahlen and Will Nonnamaker co-drove the Team Sahlen No. 43 car. Sahlen and Nonnamaker spent the most time on-track for the team. Sahlen and Nonnamaker entered all three races at Lime Rock including the Grand American Rolex Grand Touring class race. The duo held their starting position and finished the race in 18th place.

The team now prepares for a trip to their home track, the Mid Ohio Sports Car Course. The race at Mid Ohio is scheduled for June 25th at 1:00 PM EST. For up to date race coverage visit TheRaceSite.com. For live timing and scoring during the race visit www.GrandAmerican.com

Team Sahlen competes in the Grand-Am GS class with support from HRPWorld.com, GOJO, Kempthorn AutoMall, TheRaceSite.com, TheRaceMarket.com, Grassroots Motorsports, and Racetech Seats.
