Shane Lewis and the No. 7 PAP-Parts/ Southard Motorsports BMW-FABCAR Daytona Prototype fought through a difficult weekend here at the beautiful Circuit du Mont-Tremblant.

Despite a stunning effort by the Jupiter, Fla. residentin the Grand American Rolex Sports Car Series' Six Heures duMont-Tremblant, the entry would be retired 15th place in class after arear suspension rocker arm broke on the left side of the car after 126laps. The failure occurred while Lewis was at full speed cresting a hillover halfway through the six hour event. Lewis and thePAP-Parts-AutoAssets team will race next at Watkins Glen Internationalwhere they roll the No. 7 out for another six hour event on June 20.Shane Lewis: "I really like this track but it didn't like us today. Wehad a really wild ride there when the left rear rocker arm snapped goingover the crest of the hill. And while I want to thank the crew formaking me out a hero for bringing the car back in one piece, truth is Iwas just holding on. There for a second I thought for sure I was goingto end-up bear chow in the woods. The PAP-Parts/ AutoAssets crew did agreat job all weekend but we just never got to where we needed to be.The BMW ran well but these big tracks just aren't very good right nowfor us."
