THE CAYMAN INTERSERIES - News and Notes, June 14, 2010 Lee Davis Takes First Win in Savannah Enduro with Ryan Eversley; Record Four Different Winners in As Many Races in Savannah; JC France Wins in Impressive Debut; Jim Bacus and David Heinemeier-Hansson Also Victorious In Georgia SAVANNAH, Ga. (June 14, 2010) - Hot and humid conditions with daily temperatures cresting 100 degrees Fahrenheit provided the competitive setting for even hotter Cayman Interseries racing action on the Savannah Harbour Race Course on Hutchinson Island during this past weekend?s HSR Savannah Historic Races where the third and final day of racing on the 1.965-mile road course on Sunday, June 13, brought a record setting weekend to a fantastic finish. After first making it to victory lane with a third-place showing in Saturday?s opening sprint race, Georgia-based driver Lee Davis rolled straight to his first Cayman Interseries victory with a win in Sunday morning?s featured 90-minute enduro. Co-driving his No. 333 Luna C Clothing Cayman S that carries the livery of the red and black Advan Porsche 962s, Davis and coach and co-driver Ryan Eversley prevailed in a race-long battle with the team of JC France and Jack Baldwin. "I got a really good start and was able to take the lead on the first lap," Davis said. "Then Jack Baldwin got by me and we kind of played around for the first 25, 30 minutes or so until a caution and I brought it into the pits in first. Then we had a great pit strategy, our crew chief Adam Twinley is fantastic, and I turned it over to Ryan, and he did his thing. He is just awesome. This our first Cayman win for Luna C Clothing and the 986 driver cooling shirt worked great." The race came down to a battle in the final 20 minutes between Eversley and France, who took over his popular blue and orange No. 20 Gulf/Wyer Porsche 917-themed Cayman S from starting driver Baldwin. Eversley made the winning pass with just under 10 minutes remaining. "It went really well, Lee did an awesome job and took the lead into Turn 1, and any time you can fight with Jack Baldwin and stay with him is always an accomplishment," Eversley said. "All weekend Lee has been just as fast as the rest of us. We stopped when that yellow came out so when everybody else was still doing slow laps behind the pace car, we did our time in the pits
