Programming reminder:

Watching it right now....the #64 Corvette had a bit of an altercation with one of the Peugeots out on the track and that ultimately took it from 1st to 7th in class which sucks.
Kudos to the team for getting it back out there though.

That Peugot driver (Davidson) is a complete douche; cocky as all hell. Corvette had it won. I don't like how teams simply accept other drivers' ending their races. There should be hell to pay. Am happy to see that once again a Saleen S7 won @ LeMAns; final GT1 division race.

I have to hand it to Audi, their experience paid off huge. They knew the Peugeots were faster but they had the ability to hang back and keep pressure on them, and it payed off. I am dissapointed with the luck the corvettes had, but with them being in the lead it shows that they have a good car for the GT2 regulations. Being able to change class and be dominate in the first season is pretty cool.

Agreed, Team Corvette has always it their **** together. Now they just need to close the deal & win one or more of the longer endurance races in GT2.
