We have lots of colors!


This is a lap chart which plots the position at each hour of the top 10 finishers, plus Dirty Duck Racing #83 Magic Rabbit. Also added in the Model T GT since it lead the race for 12 hours before their transmission failure.

So we had 4th place pretty much nailed down at the end of 20 hours, the Geo Metro Ladybug pushed us to 5th place just before our third spin/black flag and three hour sit down. The Geo Metro then faded, so I am sure if I had just run a little slower turning the wet we could have finished 4th.

Jacked up the front of the car on Tuesday and the front bears seem OK, so it must be the rear wheel bearings that was making so much noise. Besides the transmission grinding issue, I also noticed that we have a prominent exhaust leak somewhere. Hope it is just a gasket and not a cracked header.
