Thanks guys, I really enjoyed writing and re-writing it.
GG - I did not know Stirling wasn't in the car. I thought I read he did a lap or two and called it quits, just didn't know it was after practice.
I've been watching my recording of the 24 hours as I wrote my recap. Watching and writing was filled with catharsis - I relived many emotions I felt at that point in the race that I was watching.
Next year is my 40th birthday and I was planning on driving the Nordschleife - but after what I experienced at Le Mans, there's no way I miss next years' race. I may not make Ayse's 347 races in a row, but I'll make it two in a row!
