Looking pretty good, but will They Go All The Way??

Will the 58 car with Donahue win on the 40th of his fathers victory??

Will the 59 car with Haywood win to give Haywood his 6th Victory??

Wow. You guys watching this? Best race ever, no matter who wins.
I've never seen cars dicing it this close for this long, especially after 24 hours.
Go Donahue!

40 years after his dad won, David finally has the big one. Great race down to the wire. Saw his dad win many races, he and David are class acts. As for JPM, he's an ass----, like always.

Nice job by the Brumos guys.


Did JPM say that the Porsche team had a unfair power advantage? What's that about?

That was one of the best 24 hours that I have ever seen ! A real nail biter ! I was very disappointed with JPM and his post race wailing... he really affirmed what an ass he is.

You'd think after 24 hours the difference between 1st and 2nd being .167 seconds, it says the exact opposite.

That's about as even a match up between two different manufacturers as you can get.

He should have just said: "I'm a sore loser...Get out of my way!"

Watched the race up until the last hour. Looks like I missed a great finish. Thanks for the update, guys. Knew I could count on Pelicans (unlike the Grand Am website which is still lagging behind by about 4 hours).

Everyone in Grand Am was used to Porsche running a production-based underpowered 6 cylinder engine compared to their one-off prototype 8's, and now that Porsche can run with them this year they think it's unfair.
JPM is a heck of a driver but he's still a wanker.
