Despite being down to just one car due to the other crashing hard in qualifying, the lone Corvette wins the GTE class at Le mans.  This is also despite claims that they didn't have a shot because they didn't move up in displacement despite having the option to.   I'm going for a celebratory lap in the z06 now.

It was an exciting race. It's the first Le Mans that I followed along with for most of it in my life and it didn't disappoint.

It will be very interesting to see how the new Ford GTs do in that class next year.

Smells like a steak and seats thirty five.

Its the country fried truck endorsed by a clown.

Sixty five tons of American pride.

Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts.
