Said/Curran were the only non-DP Corvette competing in the Rolex and looked like they were putting together a good run - had the fastest lap in GT @ 2:09009 but finished two laps down. I was standing on the crosswalk over the esses and believe they came out of the pits late during an early caution but could not tell what happened.

They broke a tie rod pin and got down 2 laps from that. They were running 2nd at the time, and had a very strong car

That right front wheel looked like it was just flopping around when they came into the pits.

Good video, Mark!
