Editors and Webmasters: feel free to use as you wish!
It was the night before qualifying
And all round the track
All the teams were excited
‘bout a ‘NEW’ steering rack
About new wheels and tires and brakes like molasses
‘bout new sway bars, and spring rates
And late braking passes.
All the Tech Inspectors were tucked into bed
While visions of full compliance danced in their heads.
And I, in my Nomex, and Carbon-X underwear
Had just settled down in my big comfy chair
To await my endeavor, my turn, my attempt
At a chance to make history…and possibly rent,
By completing, NO, Winning the 24 Hour
That’s run every season with cars of all power.
Twice round the clock
In sun, rain, or snow…
No excuses, no traction, no problem, let’s go!
As I sat there and waited in the dark of the night
From the murk, from the fog, from the late starry light…
A glow, oh so brilliant, a sound, oh so deep,
Came rushing, came drifting, racing straight for my feet!
I sprang from my seat and ran to the pit rail
To better see, better glimpse what this could entail.
And what to my watering, gas fumed eyes did I see?
But a bright red Corvette led by eight tiny Minis.
It’s driver, a plump, rolly polly old guy,
Dressed in a bright red firesuit with a gold sequined fly,
Gripped the wheel, and the stick shift,
Punched the clutch, headers flamed,
And he flashed his lights at the Minis
As he called them by name:
“On Fangio, on Gurney, on Donahue and Hall!!
On Schumacher, on Reikonnen, on Posey, on Paul!â€
