FIA Sportscar Championship
The FIA Sportscar Championship was a sports car racing series created by John Mangoletsi and was eventually taken control of by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA). It was a series similar to the FIA GT Championship, concentrating on two classes of open-cockpit sports prototypes in endurance races mostly around Europe. The series was folded after the 2003 season.
History
Following the demise of the World Sportscar Championship in 1992, Europe was left without a major sportscar series. In the United States however, attempts were underway to recreate the glory of the World Sportscar Championship with the IMSA GTP series returning to cheaper, open-cockpit sportscars to replace their highly technological and expensive closed-cockpit sportscars that were similar to those used in the World Sportscar Championship at its end. Following on this successful formula, in 1997 John Mangoletsi developed the International Sports Racing Series, a European-based series for open-cockpit sportscars. It would be supported by major teams like Rafanelli, Riley & Scott, Kremer Racing, Joest Racing and Konrad Motorsport and by manufacturers such as Ferrari, which was having success with its new 333 SP sports racer.

by: Jesse RiceFlight 5094 can't get here fast enough
Lord, and leave this winter behind
I've got my shades on waitin in the concourse
And I'm ready to fly
To...
A sweet kind of summer standin' knee deep in the water
Drinkin' straight tequila and lime
Got my arm around a lady, and a red cup in a koozie
Cruisin' on Key West time
Sweet kind of summer
I told the cabbie man, take me to the sand
In this place called paradise
I've got a line that needs baitin' and a senorita waitin'
When the full moon fills up the sky
Sweet kind of summer standin' knee deep in the water
Drinkin' straight tequila and lime
Got my arm around a lady, and a red cup in a koozie
Cruisin' on Key West time
Sweet kind of summer
Left my phone on the mainland, don't wanna be found
I just wanna get down in a pirate town
In a sweet kind of summer standing knee deep in the water
Sippin coconut rum on ice
Got another drink waitin'
And the radio station's playin'
"No Woman, No Cry"
Sweet kind of summer standin' knee deep in the water
Drinkin' straight tequila and lime
Got my arm around my baby, and a red cup in a koozie
Cruisin' on Key West time
