March 2006 Sebring, FL Penske Racing After an absence of 30 plus years Roger Penske was again a participant in the 12 hour event. He has a two car team of brand new Porch Spyder models that raced in the ALMS class LMP2 or LeMans Prototype 2. They were considered to be a legitimate threat to win overall, beating the faster, lighter, more powerful LMP1 class models. They were fast, but they did not last. And at Sebring, 12 hours is a long time to drive a car 100+ MPH. One finished 8th overall, the other 18th. I think this was Roger Penske's bus. It was in the Paddock next to two semi race car haulers. Note that at Sebring, motorcycles, ATV's and personal off road vehicles like golf carts are not permitted.
Nice flares on the front wheel lips to accommodate the 22 1/2 inch tires. I like those chrome dome hub caps too. Although I did not see him, I do believe this to be Roger Penske's bus.
These rear fenders also sport flares and full skirts too.
