Race car ends up in traffic jam after wrong turn

DAYTONA BEACH, Florida -- Ever get frustrated on a Sunday drive with someone not paying attention that you are right behind them and in a little bit of a hurry?

Patrick Lindsey knows just how it feels after an excursion through the Daytona International Speedway infield during the Rolex 24 At Daytona sports-car race.

Lindsey, competing in a Park Place Motorsports Porsche, said his axle was popping in and out, so he drove off the track and asked a guard to open a gate, figuring he could limp to the garage and not bring out a caution flag.
