Bitte Zeitunerschied zu Kalifornien einrechnen, der Wiener ist gerade dort.

Dann wäre es ja auch sinnvoller gewesen, er hätte den Beitrag erst verfasst, wenn er wach ist und alle Fotos zusammen hat. :rolleyes:

Irgendwann haben die aber wohl auf die Daytona umgestellt. Wenn ich es noch richtig weiß, hat Dr. Ullrich nämlich eine bekommen. Auf der HP vom ACO ist das irgendwo aufgeführt.

Die Auszeichnung/Uhr wird immer an Personen verliehen, die sich um die 24h verdient gemacht haben.

[Wiener48]

Richtig ja. Bis wann wurden sie vergeben, wirklich nur bis 2008?
