Please keep up the updates coming. For the 6th time in 3 months, Comcast took a dump on me. I'm on the phone with them now, but I doubt I'll get this resolved before the race is over.

I think I need to get the dish...

One thing to remember, this is an endurance race. And if for some reason the C6R's should miss out on a podium finish then I'm sure the engineers will quickly figure out what went wrong and fix it. The bar is always moving, and the truly great teams will set things right.

Still 1 and 2 in GT1 - Corvette Racing has done a fantastic job with the C6R's first Le Mans run.

I saw a clip wher they were talkng how the Martins were able to go an extra lap than the Vettes on fuel offering a very slight advantage.
