Actually, IIRC, it looked like the Audi rear end swap took a little longer
than last year. Last year they were planned and prepared for them well.
IIRC, it took ~4 minutes last year. This year, it just happened. While
they knew how and all, it wasn't as well choreographed as last year.
The Bentley is simply an evolution of the closed-top car Audi debuted in 99
along with the R8. The closed car was slower(alot), so Audi didn't move
forward with it. Bentley picked up the design, tweaked it, and is running
it in GTP. They claim it's almost all new, but those who pay attention know
the truth.
The Corvette's days on top are numbered. Cars like the Saleen are what GTS
was created for. The Saleen is already faster, but they don't last(yet).
Wait until somebody purpose-builds a few road cars so they have what they
want as a basis for a GTS car.
Did you all see where the caddy driver go lost on course with about an hour
left and called the OnStar folks? They finally got him back on course just
in time to take the checker. HAH! Okay, bad joke...
