I'm trying to remember one particular sports race, could have been the 24 hours of Daytona. This GT car starts at the back of the grid but is at TOP SPEED when the flag drops, he's litterally going about 100 mph faster than everyone else, drops to the white line and just passes about 50 cars. Everyone stays in line, because if one had dropped down he would have plowed into them at an insane speed.

Anyone remember that race? It got the "move of the race" award. I'm not sure it's the Daytona, I remember high banking, and the announcers saying the driver new the track so well that he just timed the start perfectly and was at top speed when they got the green flag. Could have been as long as 10 years ago.... It's been bugging me for the past week.

 

i'm intrigued. bump

 

No one have a clue?

 

Cole Trickle perhaps? Tom Cruise? I don't know actually, just your description reminded me of the last scene in that movie.

Ha! Nope. It was a real sports race. It was in a Porsche, I just remember the in car, he gets to the back of the entire field all lined up two and two (all classes in one big group) and the flag drops, he drops to the white line and just stays in it, all the way to turn one. It's insane.
