Daytona Lost and Found


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

Legitimately ended up with an extra motorcycle helmet at the end of Daytona. A team asked us if it was ours after the race ended and left it with us as we were sticking around for a while and they were headed out.

 

Describe it or something and we'll try to sort out how to get it back to you. And hope you're local ish!

This seems like the best place to add on..

 

My staff and I ended up with two pairs of gloves, a balaclava, a cover/carrying case for a NexGen, and I've got a white 5-gallon fuel jug that was left near pit-stall 21.

 

I've also got a few of your credit cards that I would love to trade for my transponders..

I may have lost a blue glove last year, any chance...?

 

If the fuel jug has no cap and a spark plug in the vent hole it was supposed to be in a bin... Sorry if so.

 

Nope, this was a good functional jug. I may have to drain the fluid out of it, you know, for safety reasons...

Wait, is it filled with race fuel? If so, it MIGHT belong to a certain team who’s car is orange and blue. I’ve never confirmed it’s race fuel, so just speculating like the rest.

Anyone end up with an analog longacre tire pressure gauge?  We were in pit stall 42, near pit in.

 

 

As exiting driver and as soon as this pit stop ended, I turn around, there are people doing damage control with piles of equipment & suits getting hastily stowed, (by all teams in the vicinity) will check our pit equip for new stuff... hit play and watch through the windshield as the storm lands heavy winds upturning a canopy and shelving. Was this you?

When/where did the last video feed show?:ph34r::P

Can't tell. We never found out where the broadcast was going because it never showed up on YouTube but the Cerevo said it was live SOMEWHERE!!!

If I can figure out the menu structure on the Cerevo I might be able to tell where the broadcast was going.

We have an access "port" on the passenger side floorboard and it came undone. That's where it must have tunnelled out to escape...:huh:

Yeah, we sacrificed a laptop screen to the 2nd storm front. Hit us hard as we were the first pit stall towards pit out at the break to the garages. As it was we were the first line of defense and we held our line but took heavy casualties....:o

Yep- that's me! Worst part of that was me ignoring a teammate who suggested we take down that stuff about ten minutes before the gusts started... thanks for keeping an eye out for it

Talk to Chris, he finally deciphered the Navajo code talker inspired Cerevo instructions and got it broadcasting for this race. He might be able to help you figure out where it is going.

Guess what I found the other day?  Yep, the pressure gauge!  Thanks for the video clip though
