For once can't BK/Mazda use a freakin' race to race rather than act like they're racing when in fact they're testing. It drives me nuts to see such a half-assed program. I can't believe a f_ _kin' cable put them out. Maybe they need some tutelage from Acura.

This is from around the 5th hour into the race
"The Lola-Mazda has made another less than routine stop with attention being paid to most every crevice. There has been a plague of pit fueling violations, particularly among the middle and rearward runners. Many have forgotten to wear gloves while fueling. There?s been a general warning given to the team managers about this."

When you look at the Mazda's best lap time/speed it is pretty competitive-probably just had a clean lap bec they're so far back.

^^Speedtv.com has some cool on board feeds. Fortunately they don't have a camera on the Mazda..wouldn't be much to see but the pit.
Hate to state the obvious but if they had run a mock 12 hour race like Acura they would've likely found the bugs and wouldn't be in the pits as they are for most of the race.

From www.dailysportscar.com :
Mazda issues – First long stop was for more throttle issues. Then it went back behind the wall for a problem with an oil line. According to John Doonan, they are treating this like a test session now, having changed springs and settings.

Well it looks like they are back out now. Maybe they can run good for the last 2.5 hours.
