The author volunteered (?) to drive first. Rather than a traditional LeMans start, where the drivers run to their cars (can't imagine why the organizers passed on this tradition), the cars begin circling the track. A car number is pulled from a hat to determine which car is in the lead. This immediately places me 10th in a field of 50-some cars. As such, I was closer to winning this race than any of my team mates. A dead battery brought the car to a halt after about 20 laps. This gave me the honor of being pushed back to the paddock by the safty car.
