more Alex Job Racing wins

Alex Job Racing drivers keep winning, even when the team isn't on track.  
Three of the team's four German drivers, who usually drive the McKenna 
Xybernaut Porsches in the American Le Mans Series, competed in European races 
last weekend.

Timo Bernhard and Lucas Luhr both drove Porsche 996 GT 3 cars in the 24-hour 
race on the daunting 25.947-km Nürburgring circuit in Germany.  Bernhard and 
his co-drivers won the A7 class and finished second overall in the H&R 
Spezialfedern Porsche.  Luhr drove two stints for Manthey Racing, but wasn't 
able to finish the race due to an engine failure.

Bernhard's car lost its power steering early in the race, making the 73-turn 
Nordschleife course even more challenging.  "It's the best track in the 
world, absolutely.  It's amazing to drive," he said. "Without power steering 
it's very tough, but it was better than I expected.  Second overall is good!"

Sascha Maassen joined Freisinger Motorsport for the FIA GT Championship race 
on the 3.8-km Circuito del Jarama in Spain.  He won the N-GT class pole 
position and co-drove to the class win in a Porsche 996 GT3-R.
