I guess you could say "What happened to Pruett?" and some of the other larger teams. It's like what happened to the Taylor Vette, runs fine, ran the tests fine, prepped to the max and an engine component brakes right out of the trailer. Shit happens. A lot of luck goes into winning a 24 hour race no matter what the prep. The car in my avatar, I qualified that car in 3rd place the firat time I ran it. In the race I ran a half lap and the car quit. The wire on the fuel pump fell off, the pump's inside the fuelcell. No one had ever had that happen in the 5 years that these cars have been raced (we checked). |
