Picked up a crew job at the Daytona 4 hour

[blacksheep-1]

Did a one off for Kohr Motorports and one of their cars. Got into trouble early, had to do a 2 tire change, then with about 20 minutes to go had contact that damaged the LR hub. It was fun to go back to pit stops again, even though things get pretty hectic at times.
The Michelins seem to act a lot like Pirellis except are more consistent, didn't notice a major drop off, but we went through 6 sets in the 4 hour race.
I also ran into Tim Hilliard and the crew chief was Rick from Cortex, so we had some great discussions,..lol
I don't think people appreciate the immense amount of work and resources that go into a 4 hour race, let alone a 24 hour one.

Looks like you had a good time. I missed having the Ford GT's in the 24 Hour race.

I didn't get down here until Saturday morning this year or I would have stopped by for a chat.

Was Tom handling the fuel?
