Endurance Racing Surprises

The funny thing about endurance racing - particularly 24 hour races like Le Mans or Daytona - is that you go to be around midnight with a certain group of cars running up front, and when you wake up the next morning, one has lost the engine, one has crashed, one has lost a gearbox, and one is still chugging along in second. The rest of the cars up front all make you say, "Huh?" It's a bit tough to get back into the race. I think a bagel and coffee will help!
