This post is good timing to remind us of this "incident" - it will spin all of us up (and Corvette Racing) for the season that is about to start! Remember Johnny O's words about waking the sleeping giant....

Great photos! That's what I thought happened looking from behind. What ever happen with being behind the other cars "A" pillar giving way.

Flying Lizard Porsche booted the tail of that Corvette and that made it it the wall! Just NOT a clean win!
