So I arrive at Le mans France for my playoff game and my team checks into the hotel room. Then out of nowhere I hear the familiar sound of American's voices. I look down and bam.. I see corvette racing. So I quickly put two and together formulating the idea that the 24hrs of Le mans was in 2 weeks and that they were probably the officially zr-1 racing team.
So I ask shyly, if they were who I thought they was. And surely enough, they were. So next thing I know my little curiosity had turned into a full blown conversations, with the team manager, to individual drivers and even the engineers. And of course I racked there brain asking them everything I ever imagined.
It was one awesome experience. So I give the Corvette Racing TEAM an official thumbs up and will say that if you ever see any body from that team, you should say hello. They are great people!!

Unfortunately no Ron, we lost by like 3 or 5 after leading alot of the game. However I found out something interesting. The team said they run though about 24 tires in the race, but those are the only tires they get for free.. and they will be practicing and fine tuning there cars there for the next 2 weeks. So I figure it will be a lot of money spent on wheels!!!
