          I wonder under normal circumstances how long this process would take. But this is what makes auto racing so interesting to me, things such as this. The product on the track is great and I love watching it, but knowing this is going on in the paddock is a thing of beauty.

                  It is really really cool that so much cooperation can result in such a great thing. I've seen it with other projects with other motorsports as well.

                            Did he hit the wall? It looks like he did, but they were saying there might not be any damage? It's really odd the rear just picked up like that though.
