      Things are changing. If you cope with the weather (cold and damp), get settled in for the night, you may wake up to less than what you started with. Thievery is becoming common now. Everything from car parts to coolers to items in your tent. Nah, go for the day and enjoy the race. car pool with someone driving a Kia.

        The way they penalized the Ferrari for a non-contact last lap maneuver on the Audi was RIDICULOUS!
        If that was a penalty, then we should have seen many more penalties levied in the first 23.9 hours.

          I agree completely. To me, that was just great last lap competitive racing.

                Looks like BMW did OK. 2nd place in GTLM with Joey Hand.

                  Had that last (dumb) caution not been thrown I think we might have seen a different finishing order in DP and GTLM. Both of the cars that finished second in those classes (the 10 and the 55) were faster than their respective winners at the end.
