[DeTomaso] NPC: Teamwork and lack thereof...

I vaguely recall reading in some GT40 history book that when the Yanks 
went to LeMans, the Ferrari crews was very non-chalant about pitstops 
and driver changes.  The American teams brought NASCAR practices to the 
race and motivated the Italians to up their game.

I guess that's the American view on it.

   It's hard for me to understand why the Italians did so poorly as a
   military
   force in WWII when I see the levels of perfection in their automobiles
   and
   the performance of this pit crew. I didn't blink and I still missed
   what
   was really being done . I saw the before and the after but it was
   difficult
   to actually observe the "during" it was so fast it's mind boggling.
