[StephenB]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXfVXKCkeYo during practice scott had a huge crash and they built an entire new prototype for the race that same weekend! TV footage and in car video is on the above link.

How did they do it... with:
4,000 mechanical parts
250 electrical parts
100 engine parts
350 gearbox parts
450 pieces of custom harware
re-used only 10% of the parts from the car that crashed!
And they Finished in 30 hrs!

I wonder how much tequila shots it took :blink:

I think Scott owes the crew a few tequila shots after that :rolleyes:

I still have a hard time believing that he never saw the Porsche!

I'd like to hear everyones opinion on that

I wasn't there, I wasn't sitting in his seat.

They are going 165 up that hill. I'm like 60 MPH short of that, and it gets my full attention.

That's definitely one where I wouldn't even consider armchair quarterbacking for a second.
