Default Magnus Racing Porsche Goes to Rolex 24 at Daytona
The car being parked up near by Iv gotten to know John and have machined/welded/fabricated a couple pieces for the car and whatnot... They called me sunday and needed a piece milled real quick so I came by, did that... and snapped a couple more pics of the car as they loaded up... so in no particular order...

I noticed they just recently put their website up so you can check it out here! http://www.magnusracing.com/ They will be racing at the Rolex 24 This weekend at Daytona. It will be broadcast LIVE on SPEED. The race starts staurday at 3pm ending Sunday at 3pm. Check it out!




I made that stupid little bracket holding the ecu and datlogger together! lol Its the little stuff that counts... ya know...












Me and Bill machined hundreds of these wheel plugs!!!












a couple spindles I machined down...



Porsche Alignment fixtures I machined and made a "camber gauge holder" for it! lol

Doing it right and having the money so you dont have to improvise.
Thanks for sharing the inside works of the shop.

You guys did well considering your first season! The most important thing is that you all finished, 5th!

And I believe they kept it in one piece as well. They where also in 4th in the last 15 mins, in which they pitted and a Camaro eeked by.

I stopped by the Magnus Garage often, no one was ever in there.
