Nordic should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
If I recall correctly, while the 550 was faster than the vette at LM last year, its fuel useage was higher and thereby needed to stop more often. had the 550 lasted it would have been close.

BTW, For us brits Eurosport have coverage listed for twice next week.

I saw them drag racing a 675 car down the straight and I couldn't believe it. Those things are FAST! (Of course when you drive them that fast you wear them out, but who could resist?)

Some years ago I recall that Autosport in the UK ran a 'spoof' report about a sports car race, which I thought was Sebring, but it might have been somewhere else in the US. I think it had Steve McQueen racing in this story, where part of the track was on a pontoon that rose with the tide affecting top speed... It was a good read and certainly amusing, but can anyone recall ther story at all?
