Thanks for the staff meeting pic. The calm before the storm. BTW - the guy on the right in the Speed style hat could be my doppelganger.

I like the strategy.
--- Robby drives 385 mi. Using 55mph ave, this will take 7 hr.
--- At 4:00 PM, Billy hops in for 135 mi, which will take 2.5 hr.
--- At 6:30 PM, Robby's back in, and drives the remaining 353 mi, which will take 6.5 hr.
--- At 1:00 AM Sat, Robby crosses the finish line FIRST.

It will happen just like that - you watch!

Long day for Robby, but this is the way has to be for him to win. I'm sure Billy is a capable driver, but Robby is in the elite class of driver known as "The Best of the Best," and to win requires lots of wheel time from him. That's what you get for being good!

I bet all the other top drivers are running a similar strategy.

I wonder how much time Billy has spent pre-running the TT? Without knowing, I would guess a strategy for him would be to hang tough. Risk cautiously, and don't ball it up!

I like the theory,but.I don't see the second half (when Robby gets back in) as being that fast.IMO that part of the course is pretty shitty.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyTvMBKBzUw
I expect a clean 'finish' at 4:30-5 am pst. (for a std. 1 beer bet?)
General reminder 'CHAT' will be open the whole time.Who is staying up for the whole thing?
