I don't know how many of you watched the 2009 Petit Le Mans @ Road Atlanta, but this is really impressive.

After this horrific crash during a practice session for the Petit Le Mans @ Road Atlanta last weekend, Scott Sharp walked away!

The Acura team managed to OVERNIGHT a monocoque shell from their shop in California. They amazingly built up another race car in 20 hours....

Here is the video of the crash, and the time elapsed video of the Acura team building a new car. Truly awesome stuff.

Definitely a great video.

It really shows the true passion of motorsport and all of the planning that goes into each and every job.
