STP Kremer Porsche Spyder K8

Le Mans 24 Hours
Warm Up

10-10:30

Car No 2 - Fossett/Fouche/Dickens
12th - 3:58.587

South African driver George Fouche took the STP Kremer K8 Spyder for the whole of the warm up 
session , and concentrated on checking that the car's new race engine was running OK, 
scrubbing in race tyres and tryign out some setup c hanges. Fouche reported no significant 
improvement in the handling, and the team will return to their practice setup before the start of the 
race.

It is planned that Fouche will start the race, to be followed by Fossett, with Dickens taking the 
third stint.  The drivers plan to start straight away on double stints (about an hour and a half each 
one) , and the team will review the situation as the race progresses.

After Thursday's practice, Fossett reported  himself very pleased with the car - his second drive 
with the Kremer team.  "The car's great - it feels very stable and easy to handle, gives you a lot of 
confidence.  I'm really looking forward to the race and a good finish."
