What you might guess is that Peter kitchak in a Lola T70 is right on Bruce Canepa's tail the whole time.

and video from the 3rd place car...

Johan,

That is fabulous, that sound gives me chills, thanks.

That is just marvelous! The Video and sound are crystal clear and I emerge smiling from ear to ear...

The guy in the Alfa is hauling. Some of the guys he is passing have no clue where the line is (?) Neat vids .... Canepa has too much dough, plane and simple.

Thanks for posting those links. Fantastic footage. Nice to see these cars fully committed. The Alfa guy was fun to watch in particular. Shame about the apparent fueling issue at the end.

How can you have too much simple ?

When you spend it on 917's, I'm ok with too much $

Yeah..... :thumbsup:

My life needs more SIMPLE in it... and that is no joke! :stunned:

 

[Mesa]

Some people have too much (aero) plane, I guess wallflowers have too much plain, maybe lost tribes in the amazon have too much simple.

Sometimes simple is worth it's weight in gold.

thanks forthis posts. Great to watch.

Anyone. How reliable ( exact) are those G sensors. THe Alfa has set it up different from the 917 ( which i think is the way it should be) . Constant lateral g´s of 1,5 to 1,6 is quite impressive, but i would have expected them to go much closer and over 1 g in braking.

Would love to see a inside vid from the T70 following the 917.

Same here. Also some trackside, drive-by footage edited in. A great looking aray of machinery to make your eyes water.

The box is mounted wrong in the Alfa and needs to be rotated 90 degrees.
