It was 2 laps down, wasn't it?

But anyways, be glad you got to see that, because you will never see anything close to that ever again in an American series.

First 5 cars shattered the track mph record set by Davy Jones in the 1992 Jaguar, and when the IMSA GTPs race there, they didn't have the chicane at the end of the back-straight that slows the cars down roughly 5 seconds a lap!
