<VV> Daytona 24 Hour Race

As the race wore on yesterday, I was rooting for Montoya, but when I checked 
in on the progress today, it slowly dawned on me that
Donohue's potential win was much more of a fitting acheivement than 
Montoya's taking it for the 4th straight year in a row!

So, it made watching the last hour a real edge-of-the-seat experience, once 
David made the one move that put him in front.
Good race!
