Detroit (Aug. 30) – Intersport Racing broke Audi's stranglehold in the LMP1 category Saturday to take the class victory in the Detroit Sports Car Challenge presented by Bosch, the ninth round of the American Le Mans Series. The No. 37 Very Berry Exotics Lola B06/10 AER of Jon and Clint Field and Richard Berry took the top spot when the No. 1 Audi R10 TDI failed to meet the minimum weight in post-race technical inspection. The win was Intersport's first in the Series since Portland 2006, and its maiden LMP1 victory. It also ended Audi's 30-race class winning streak that dated back to Sebring in 2006. Intersport Racing is the American Le Mans Series longest participating privateer team having competed throughout the Series' 10-year history.
"While this is not exactly how we had hoped to claim our first LMP1 win, we'll take it anyway," said team owner and former American Le Mans LMP2 Champion, Clint. "A win is a win. We admire and respect our friends at Audi. We race them hard and fair every time out. It is a huge challenge for a small privateer like Intersport to go out there and compete with a team of Audi's caliber. This is great for our guys. The whole crew works so hard every week, and we're really happy to share this with them."

Bowmanville, Ont. – Following its season-best performance in at Road America two weeks ago, Intersport Racing showed once again showed that it has what it takes to run with the big dogs in the American Le Mans Series. The two-car privateer effort led by Le Mans winner Clint Field stood atop the time sheets in Saturday's practice session at Mosport International Raceway, and showed strong in the race, capturing third and fourth place results in the LMP1 category.
The momentum was certainly building following the team's impressive run at Road America, which saw the No. 37 Very Berry Exotics Lola B06/10 AER leading the race outright in the first few hours of the race. Audi driver Lucas Luhr made note in the post-race press conference acknowledging Jon and his excellent drive to the front.

The experienced sportscar and historic car racer teamed up with fellow Brit Ryan Lewis and American John Faulkner for the race at Elkhart Lake and finished just outside the podium places in the premier P1 category. The positive result was achieved despite the trio's Intersport Racing Lola B06/10-AER being involved in several incidents during the four-hour event.
