Scott Pruett sums it up as a big time "test of man and machine" especially with the rain off and on down here in beach land. Grand-AM says there were 60 lead changes among 15 different drivers. Just like 2007...the Ganassi Lexus didn't put a wheel wrong...and lasted about 2,470 miles...about a 100+ mile an hour pace.
We'll have more with Dario on our Race-Talk program, available on our podcast page:
