Funny story about that. This was in the early 90s (before I worked with this guy) anyway he told us one day he was in a goofy mood and just happened to tell one of his buddies he played the skin flute. He didn't know what that meant and just thought it sounded funny. He said the guy looked at him very strange and pretty much stopped hanging out with him and really cut down on his interactions with him. Many years later, he found out what it meant and was horrified lol. By this time his friend had long ago moved away. He called him up the day he found out and pleaded his case lol.

The fox coverage this morning has been pitiful. It's like the ******* interview channel. They did a recap and didn't even say what happened to the Acuras that had been challenging the Caddys for the first half of the race. I had to go dig around on the internet.

Fox mailing it in, nice job IMSA. Wish they had a feed that was just the track cameras and track audio without the useless talking heads.

The Acuras were overheating and one had a drive through penalty. One of the NSX GT3s crashed.

If you are talking about the DPIs the Caddys had the temp problem. The #6 Acura had an alternator failure and the #7 Acura had an incident in the morning with the #31 Caddy. I believe Castroneves and Nasr were driving. The Caddy got away with minimal damage, not so for the Acura. If the Caddy had to win I'm glad it was the #5 car.

Once again Alonso has great luck. He and Toyota at Le Mans will either cancel their bad luck or lead to the worst race luck in the history of racing.

They all look the same. And Christian Fittipaldi is rocking the George Clooneys. (gray hair).

I watched the last hour and I think Stroll got a flat.

Alonso admitted a little surprise that United Autosports had hit issues, but stressed again that he enjoyed the Daytona experience

“They’ve been racing with this car all last year,” he said. “They were at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, they finished fourth, so it’s a car that is well proven, you know? It’s not a new car.“ But you come here and you have issues here and there, so it was a surprise, a bit unlucky, even more for our sister car because it was in the podium [position].
You'd think Alonso would be used to **** failing when he's involved.
