It's a worthy read for its quality even if Le Mans is of little interest. Somebody deserves a raise IMO. https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/ent...f-2024-s-24-hours-of-le-mans/ar-BB1ozV76 Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

I'd have to take in the Mulsanne Straight, before the chicanes, for the full screaming experience. So I need a time machine AND winning the Lottery Seriously, if you've never watched McQueen's LeMans movie, it's my favorite racing movie of all. The car-to-car, on-track, and in-car footage is amazing, and the 917s have the most glorious/threatening/harmonic howl of any sports car ever built.

My current favorite viewing location for past 10 years viewing reserved spot is turn 3, a good passing zone under braking, fairly slow, cars are not loud for 12 hrs, first real turn after the starting line/pits (cold tires), and also a location able to see clearly 4 other turns, and a big LED screen directly across from the turn. Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
