| Team Falken Tire took top honors in the GT class at Mid-Ohio for the first time in the performance tire manufacturer’s three-year ALMS career. |
Falken Tire Weathers Perfect Storm
Declaring “perseverance pays off,” Team Falken Tire survived the storm that hit Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course 30 minutes before the finish and took top honors in the GT class for the first time in the performance tire manufacturer’s three-year ALMS career.
Derrick Walker, Falken’s ALMS team manager, made the comment after previously expressing confidence in Falken’s capability at Mid-Ohio—a track he knows very well from years of competing as a manager and owner of IndyCar teams.
Credit also went to Falken’s two team drivers, Porsche works driver Wolf Henzler, and his partner Bryan Sellers, who persevered through the race on a track notoriously tough on tires. Sellers qualified ninth and expressed disappointment with the position, considering Falken has finished in fifth place the last two races. However, Sellers started the race and started moving forward until he was hit from behind by the #04 Ford GT, which dropped the Porsche to 12th. The veteran driver fought hard and turned the car over to his teammate in 10th. Henzler entered the race and gradually moved to seventh place in GT, remaining there for a good portion of the race.
When the green came back out, Henzler immediately jumped two positions to fifth, though heavy rain followed, prompting a second yellow flag. However, it didn’t remain yellow for long, and when the green fluttered again, Henzler drove from fifth to first in a single lap.ALMS officials decided with 10 minutes to go to red flag the race as the rain showed no signs of letting up, and Team Falken Tire took the win, earning its first podium and victory.
Besides the first-place finish, Falken Tire enjoyed a great fan weekend as it partnered with the Austin Hatcher Foundation for a “Racer Pack” giveaway.
Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course marked the midway point of the ALMS season. Round 6 is in two weeks at Road America in Wisconsin, then a new street course in Baltimore, September 2–3, with a fast trek to the West Coast for the annual visit to Monterey and Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, September 15–16, wrapping up with the season finale at Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta, September 28–October 1.

JaguarRSR Takes Checkered Flag at Mid-Ohio
From one extreme to another the JaguarRSR duo of XKRs successfully took the checkered flag in last weekend's dry then wet Mid-Ohio Sports Car Challenge. Under sunny skies and hot temperatures, the green flag dropped kicking off round five of the 2011 American Le Mans Series presented by Tequila Patron. After qualifying the car 12th in the GT field, PJ Jones drove the #98 JaguarRSR XKR GT for the first stint.
Jones raced through the twists and turns of the 2.258-mile road course for almost one hour and 30 minutes, after which he came in for a full-service stop. He handed the car over to his American teammate Rocky Moran Jr. and, shortly after, the weather took a turn for the worst. A big cell came right over the Lexington, Ohio, area making the remainder of the race quite a show.
With 10 minutes to go, the track was red flagged and as the clock winded down, it wasn't long after the checkered flag was waved. The #98 car finished 11th in class. After Bruno Junqueira qualified the car 11th on the GT grid, Ken Wilden took the green flag. By Lap 3, he had moved into the top 10.
At just about the hour marker the Canadian came in to serve his penalty, which held him in the box for 60 seconds. Then went back out for a few more laps before returning to pit lane for full service and a driver change to Junqueira. The Brazilian took it to the finish line. The #99 car finished just behind its counterpart, 12th in GT field.
Round Six of the American Le Mans Series, the Road Race Showcase, will be held at Road America, in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, on Saturday, August 20.

| Cameron Steele and Chad George won at the Lucas Oil off-road race Sunday night at Glen Helen Raceway for their first wins of the season. |
Yokohama Tire Corporation-Sponsored Off-Roader Cameron Steele Wins Lucas
Yokohama Tire Corp. collected two first-place victories in the Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series (LOORRS) event, August 7, at Glen Helen Raceway near San Bernardino, California. Longtime Yokohama-sponsored racer Cameron Steele captured his first Lucas Oil race of the season in the Pro Lite Class, as did Chad George, who took the title in the Super Lites Class. Steele and George won on off-the-shelf Yokohama Geolandar A/T-S tires.
Steele is a veteran off-road Trophy Truck class racer who has won championships in SCORE and SNORE. The two-time SCORE Person of the Year and TV commentator said the Yokohama tires were a big factor in helping drive his #16 Stronghold 300hp Ford Pro Lite Unlimited truck to victory.
The Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series is a 16-race series, which combines the Midwest tradition of short course off-road racing with a West Coast influence. The next LOORRS event is September 24–25, Speedworld Off-Road Park in Surprise, Arizona. Visit www.lucasoiloffroad.com for details.

| Of the buyers attending the 2011 Show, 27% indicated that they're
interested in products specifically targeting the restoration/vintage
market segment. |
The SEMA Show is a worldwide automotive specialty-products trade event that attracts more than 100,000 industry leaders and professionals each year and covers the entire realm of the specialty-equipment industry.
The Show is comprised of 13 categories: Business Services; Global Tire Expo—Powered by TIA; Hot Rod Alley; Mobile Electronics & Technology; Collision Repair & Refinish; Powersports & Utility Vehicles; Racing & Performance; Restoration Marketplace; Restyling & Car Care Accessories; Tools & Equipment; Trucks, SUVs and Off-Road; Wheels & Accessories; and OEM.
Each of the sections will be highlighted in SEMA eNews from now leading up to the Show, November 1–4, in Las Vegas. This week's spotlight is on the Restoration Marketplace, which is located in the Central Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center, next to Hot Rod Alley and near the Racing & Performance section.
The restoration market includes the products and services used in returning vehicles, typically classics, to their originally manufactured or showroom condition. Many of these products are refurbished original parts, others are salvaged parts and some are reproductions. According to the 2011 SEMA Market Report, the restoration niche leveled off in 2010 after two years of decline, hitting $1.40 billion in sales at the retail level.
The study also shows that specialty-product outlets, automotive chains and mail-order companies account for the majority of restoration accessory sales. In addition, restoration enthusiasts utilize the Internet for parts information and purchases but also rely on traditional catalog mail order.
Vehicles in the restoration market typically consist of antiques manufactured prior to 1920, domestic vehicles manufactured from 1920 to World War II and post-World War II domestic vehicles and foreign vehicles. However, the term "restoration" is not restricted to only original or reproduction parts. The companies within the industry have come to embrace "restomods," which can be simply defined as restoration plus modification. Restomods use techniques or parts to improve performance or appearance that were not authentic to a vehicle's original version.
Currently, total buyer registrations for the 2011 SEMA Show are up by nearly 43%, when compared with the same time period in 2010. Of the buyers attending the 2011 Show, 27% indicated that they're interested in products specifically targeting the restoration/vintage market segment. That's nearly a 52% increase compared to the same time frame in 2010.
There are currently 63 companies exhibiting in the Restoration Marketplace section. Check out all of the exhibitors and the floorplan for the Restoration Marketplace at the 2011 SEMA Show.
Read more about the restoration products on display at the 2010 SEMA Show, as well as the current tends and state of the market from the view of experts in the industry in the August issue of SEMA News.
For an additional breakdown of the market, its products and the impact of restomods, follow this link.

The SEMA Show features thousands of project vehicles each year that represent the ingenuity and creativity of the specialty-equipment market. SEMA Show exhibitors can generate more product exposure by offering products to builders through the SEMA Show Products for Project-Vehicle Builders list. The list is a simple way to connect exhibitors who want to get more eyes on their products at the Show with builders designing the vehicles that attract attention from thousands of buyers and members of the media.
Each week SEMA eNews will feature the latest additions to the list, and hundreds of builders will access the list to find the pieces they need to complete their builds. Product-placement opportunities such as this are so beneficial that exhibitors often offer products for free or at a greatly reduced rate. Note: The list is reserved for exhibitors of the 2011 SEMA Show.
To place your product on the list, send your company name, a brief product description, contact information and a website where the products can be viewed to eNews@sema.org and put “Product List” in the e-mail subject line. To complete the process online, use this electronic form from the Exhibitor Manual.
Remember, builders will contact you directly, so make sure your contact information is accurate. New submissions will be included each week, when available.
For questions or additional information, contact Jason Catullo at jasonc@sema.org or 909/978-6713.

The SEMA Show features thousands of project vehicles each year that represent the ingenuity and creativity of the specialty-equipment market. SEMA Show exhibitors can generate more product exposure by offering products to builders through the SEMA Show Products for Project-Vehicle Builders list. The list is a simple way to connect exhibitors who want to get more eyes on their products at the Show with builders designing the vehicles that attract attention from thousands of buyers and members of the media.
Each week SEMA eNews will feature the latest additions to the list, and hundreds of builders will access the list to find the pieces they need to complete their builds. Product-placement opportunities such as this are so beneficial that exhibitors often offer products for free or at a greatly reduced rate. Note: The list is reserved for exhibitors of the 2011 SEMA Show.
To place your product on the list, send your company name, a brief product description, contact information and a website where the products can be viewed to eNews@sema.org and put “Product List” in the e-mail subject line. To complete the process online, use this electronic form from the Exhibitor Manual.
Remember, builders will contact you directly, so make sure your contact information is accurate. New submissions will be included each week, when available.
For questions or additional information, contact Jason Catullo at jasonc@sema.org or 909/978-6713.
