Currently P6 and 7 in Prototype, with only a little less than 19 hours to go.

Yup.
Discovered the Fox SportsGo app have picture-in-picture settings. Had the main race in one window and in-car BMW, Chevy and Ford in the other three. One plus is that I didn't have to listen to any commercials!!!

The Nissan's look like the front wheel drive cars.

#22 in second place 38 sec back at 15 hours
Deff not FWD, it's the typical racing set up, mid engine RWD. Bodywork very tight over the motor

Oh well, It all came to tears with about 14 hours to go. Hartley was driving in the lead in the rain, had just left the pits, somehow got squirrly and found the wall. Didn't hit hard but it was done.
Never got the Continental tires warm enough to make it.

I personally know this team and get opportunity to spend time with them when ever my wife and I are at one of the races. They got the car late this year compared to other teams. Its going to take a few races to get the car shaken down inside and out. However they are doing good. Still have 5 hrs to go. Anything can happen!! |

So with four and a half hours to go, Nissan #2 is in fourth a lap down and #22 in tenth 25 laps down.
