Ken Miles wasn’t just a driver, chasing checkered flags. Ken was a skilled problem solver.
This is the OTHER race we all run.
Here Ken is, repairing the 427 Cobra he crashed in practice at Sebring 12Hour race in 1964.
No hesitation.
No wallowing in the calamity of it all.
No pointing fingers.
No waiting for someone else to swoop in and fix it.
See the solution.
Work the problem.
Get the back on the road.
And so, he did. THAT is what made Ken Miles excellent.

Great story, I swear they could write 50 books of those early years.

The Mustang will be in the GTD and GTD PRO at Daytona next yearStarted snowing here about 45 minutes ago.
A little on cold side at -13 outside, so watching the Rolex 24 hours of Daytona inside.
Good racing.

Yah, he’s gotten big for his shoes quickly.
I used to cheer for Verstappen when he was chasing Hamilton around the track, but now I wish someone would dethrone him.
I hoped Leclerc was going to do it this past sumner.
It looked promising early on but hope faded fast on that.
Be cool to see Ford in there though.
Just as Cadillac is also trying to get in the game with Andretti racing.

It’s going to be nice to see Mustangs going up against Corvettes and the others in the GT classes.
