Just a little recap on what the Mins went through, Car #196 started dead last as it blew and engine in the last 10 minutes of practice and missed qualifying. After starting dead last, they worked thier way up to 7th overall before having to replace a halfshaft. This dropped them back to 24th and the worked themselves back up to 16th. At 3:30AM they lost the clutch and ran they last 8 hours without a clutch. Pretty impressive. On top of all that all the crew members were wearing smiles, we have photos to porve it. Great job guys. Have not heard the story on Mini #195, so stay tuned on that story.
