Rubbin's Racin' At Daytona, Even When It's Not NASCAR
Rubbin's Racin' At Daytona, Even When It's Not NASCAR-July 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:46

I'll give Nick Tandy one thing: he and the rest of the #911 Porsche crew are amusingly aggressive. Here's Tandy bump-drafting earlier in this weekend's Rolex 24 at Daytona.

Tandy and fellow Brit Oliver Gavin were out on track at the same time. They're both friends. So, hey, why not help each other out and bump draft down the straight?

Tandy used the gentle nudge to gain a bit more speed and eventually pass the Corvettes, but yeah. NASCAR isn't even here this weekend and drivers are still bumping into each other on the big oval. Awesome.
