For sure,seems like the heat took its toll today. Garf was aiming for a sub 12, just gutted for him.

 

Yip, this is when it becomes a real mental challenge...Ask a man with 3 x IMSA's under the belt with the best time being 15.50  :)

That is a pretty big achievement!

Heard she was blown off by the downdraft of the chopper [emoji15][emoji15]

 

I was watching the live streaming earlier and the one chopper was flying very low behind the leading man... dangerously low imo and I'm sure his downdraft would have been pushing the leader and blowing against the 2nd place guy if he was close enough (could not see the 2nd guy in the camera shot)

 

The same happened in the cape epic, flying dangerously low following the riders and some rider reportedly got blown over by the choppers.

 

Cowboy helicopter pilots...one day they will make headlines for the wrong reasons
