    13 hours complete.

    everyone seems to be in a groove...here's hoping it's smooth sailing...

    I need to be useful after the finish tomorrow....probably calling it a night in the next hour.

    24 Camaro now running behind the 2nd place GT Am. Jenson Button is definitely pushing it.

    Fun fact as the sun rises in France: Jeff Segal, racing the #100 LM GT AM Ferrari was my instructor at the Ferrari Driving School at Mont-Tremblant.

    His interview nine hours ago wasn't that optimistic but they are hanging in there, good to see.

    Definitely keeping the two cars together, and racking up the laps!
    Anyone know what happened to put them a couple laps down relatively early in the race?

    They are not and have not been on the pace is the basic answer

    The 007's best lap is ~0.5 second slower than the leading Toyota, which adds up I suppose but apparently average lap time is what's hurting them.

    51 has reduced the gap to #8 from 44 seconds to 11.

    John Hindhaugh just said that the #8 Toyota hit a squirrel and broke his front splitter.

    51 takes the lead from the pits. Very poor reporting. They never said if the Ferrari got new tires, and the camera moved to the Toyota.

    That’s what I thought too, but the reporting was confusing. As it turned out the tires were changed. It must have been a blinder change but the director was showing us the Toyota while it was happening.
