That vette had some baaaaad luck going through that gravel pit near the end. Shredded the front aero and front tire and that was that. I'm actually surprised to see they actually made it across the finish line (then promptly died lol).
I was there........cheering on the GTs. So glad we'd got a second place, but I did feel sorry for the Corvette team......but the Aston/Corvette battle was brilliant to watch.
Here are a few of my snaps
Me (in the NHRA cap) and my friend.....on the starting grid a few hours after the race had finished!
All Aston Martins are still Ford Powered.
The deal with Mercedes fell through.
That motor is based off of the 3.0/3.7 engine family.
This is the V-8 version and is built by Ford.
