    This is odd. Speed died on my cable broadcast. All other channels work fine. Rebooting the cable box doesn't work either.

    Soooo.... When they do a pit stop and a driver change... How do they deal with seat fitment / comfort?

    Or... Are the replacement drivers all physically the same?....

    Depends...

    The Ferrari's have adjustable seats. However for the Michael Waltrip racing one the smallest driver is a lot smaller than the largest, They have a seat insert that goes in there for the little guy.

    Prototypes usually have drivers that are close in stature but they also have inserts to put in the seat for the little guys.

    They are not my favorite team, but they earned their victory. Congrats to Team Ganassi/Sabates. :Thumbsup:

    LOVE IT that a BMW took the checkered! Not so much for Montoya though. :frown2:
    Felt bad for the Corvette guys... What a great race!!!

    Although I wanted a Michael Shank car to win I do like Pruitt. Not a fan of the fat man (Ganassi) though. David Donahue ran a good race in GX.....that Cayman didn't have a mark on it at the end.
