I've mentioned here I couldn't stop watching the in-car video from Red running Daytona. What a life-thrill. And I mentioned that I watched the Rolex 24 from Daytona this past weekend on TV. I was the one who watched hours of it. If anybody did. No telling how many folks did, but I did. Hours of it.
They had the same thing going on there that we had going on during the track day. Much faster cars, much slower cars on the same track. Passing strategy, etc. But we were all amateurs trying to sort it all out at 120 or 140 or 150 mph in the trioval, man that was fun.
The Rolex 24, the slow cars were fast. And the most amazing thing was, they ran for 24 hours. That's gotta be a boon for the manufacturers even though nobody was in the stands. In the GT-L class the Ford GT beat the Porsche 911 to the line at the end of the race. That's gotta sting if you're a German. A slap in the face.
And they all go SO fast. I watched that for hours and then I watched Red's video from that same track, sort of a trophy, I've driven there, too. Gyah Red is SOOOOO slow, I don't need to watch that again. And I won't watch that video again. GYAH that's slow. SO slow. GYAH.
