Daigh finished because he had to keep the engine RPMs under 6000 to prevent fuel delivery problems (vapor lock) on the hot southern California day and, in doing so, did not encounter the mysterious oil starvation issue that occurred closer to 7000 RPM that had plagued the Scarabs previously.
Daigh rematou porque tivo que manter o réxime do motor a 6000 rpm para previr os problemas de fornecemento de combustible (bloqueo de vapor) no caloroso día no sur de California e, ao facelo, non se atopou co misterioso problema de falta de aceite que se producía preto das 7000 RPM que previamente sufriran os Scarabs.
