Basically the Panoz won by running consistently, having no problems and having the fewest pit stops... a blueprint for success at LeMans... lets give these guys the credit due...

When I think of all the *&%#%*$#% things that can go wrong in a 30 minute sprint race, I think its a miracle that ANY of these cars can finish this race...
