Allen, Colourtech South (Henry K) has the sequence and I will post my in-car later tonight. Doesn't look exciting as there were no multiple spins, just a looooong, sloooow slide about 19 seconds long.....

The Daytona Slide
Definitely a must and want to watch video. Thanks for sharing.
Have some less dramatic videos (shot from an iPhone in the tower) of the racers sliding in slow motion accross the grass between pit entrance and the start/finish.
P.S. For those of you that haven't raced Daytona it's not always wet but when it is depending on your frame of mind and decision on tires it can be a dramatic experience. The "art of racing in the rain" comes to mind watching Juan last year on racing rubber.

Wow. I knew the rain came in during that first sprint but didn't realize it was that bad. That's a wild ride.
We had a great time last weekend. Thanks again to Allen, bob and all the Florida crown volunteers. The 3hr was a lot of fun but I don't envy the work the national guys had to do (and are still doing) trying to figure it all out. The randomly placed cones at the exit of the bus top kept us guessing.
