Steve then handed over to Kevin Brents who drove for 96 mins and kept the 1 lap + advantage over 3rd place, and eventually falling 1 lap back to first place of TMo.

| RCM officially retires from OATAS GTP | Thursday September 27th, 2007 | ||||
| |||||
| Team RCM and Team OER have officially retired and pulled all 4 of their cars from the OATAS GTP series. Team RCM came 3rd in the 2006/2007 OATAS GTP season in GTP Lights, and Team OER came 2nd in the GTP Lights championship. Both teams combined to win 4 out of 7 races in the Lights class at OATAS. So RCM and OER will not be back for the 2008 season at OATAS GTP, and have also retired from the GTP mod too. We are looking to move on and go to some other forms of racing, after the OATAS season was a very long and tiring season, and both teams feel it is best to retire from GTP and just move on. So we thank all of you all from SSCA 12hrs of Watkins Glen Long to OATAS 10hrs of Watkins Glen Long finale. We thank everyone who participated and drove any of those 11 races we competed in with GTP. Thanks again and see you at SSCA. | |||||

| |||||
| The #108 entry for RC Motorsports managed to capture its first win and the teams 2nd win in OATAS at Karjala. The 6 hour race was full with action and drama, and in the end it came down to a fierce battle between the #108 RCM1 Mazda and the #104 R4R Mazda. The battle was won by the #108 by 2 laps in the end. Although for the 3 other cars it didn't work out well, Fredrik Arbegard in the #106 RCM2 Mazda was hit early in the 1st Hour in T1 and crashed heavily against the wall. Ricardo Valadao in the #20 RCM Sauber faced the same destiny in the hairpin after being hit by the #219 in the 4th hour, and the #111 Team OER Mazda blew its engine in the 4th hour. Although sad to the 3 cars that retired, the team can now be happy in getting 2nd place in the Lights points standings. Next up at OATAS is the 10 Hours of Watkins Glen Long on the 15th of September. See you there! | |||||

| RC Motorsports 2007 Le Mans Race Report | Saturday June 9th, 2007 | ||||
| |||||
| RC Motorsports doesn't do too well at Le Mans. The biggest race of the year for the team, and 2 of the team's 4 cars go out in the first 3 hours. The #108 RCM1 Gulf Mazda and the #106 RCM2 Lowenbrau Toyota are faced with a very disappointing result at Le Mans after DNF'ing after 3hrs. But the #20 RCM Sauber and the #111 Team OER Logitech Mazda go on to survive for 13 and 14 hours respectively, but are forced out after multiple wrecks, killing the engine. Not one car made the Top 5 in either class, but the team will start practicing hard for Karjala in 2 months. We hope for a better race there. See you at Karjala! | |||||
