I like BMW a whole lot more now, and dislike that Ferrari What an amazing finish.

Laughed at the end...
GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle, meanwhile Audi have won, meanwhile GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle, GT Battle! Joey Hand Takes it!!!

Yeah, I watched through Eurosport and one of the commentator mentioned something in the lines of ''Forget ???, forget ???, forget about the Audi, all I want to see now is the GT battle!'' That's a real laugh

I didn't like how the TV director manage the footage because after the BMW got spun around, everything was headed back to Audi and never anything about the crazy GT battle. Very dissapointed as I wanted to know what actually happened...

Damn! I missed pole on my split by .017!! Starting second and this grid is pretty damn close! Less than 1 second covering the whole 10 Vettes! 20 HPDs wich makes me a bit nervous and surprised to only see 8 Fords!

Iracing I'm guessing?

[Jav]

Lol!! Wrong thread! I could've sworn I was on the correct one! What a dummy!

Small question, what's the reasoning behind the legality (cheese wedges) panels?

I thought it was so you didn;t spray bits of tyre at the people behind you if you had a blowout. I'm probably wrong.

[sumbrownkid]

I figured the tires had to be hidden from view since seeing anything mechanical was a regulation no no.

But all it did was add downforce, something which the ACO desires to cut.

If memory serves me correctly, those panels were put their as a physical means of stopping the cars from taking off like the Mercedes did at Le Mans.

Then didn't the ACO make the effect much more likely with such devices? As it does look like it added rear downforce.

Those CLRs lacked downforce in the front end, leading to those flips.

Wasn't just the CLR thought that took off on the straight. The BMW LMR did as well as the Porsche 911 GT1(Both at Petit Le Mans). Those panels stop the car from lifting off after drafting behind another car.

That's right I forgot those other incidents.

I'm gonna go on a google journey to read up on this.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Eh, is there now some confusion what sumbrownkid originally meant? These, right?

[sumbrownkid]

Yeah that's what I'm talking about.

Not on my end, I pretty much knew what he meant.

I FINALLY finished watching the 12 hours replay on americanlemans.com.

Wow. Even though I accidentally already saw who won GT, the last two laps did not disappoint. After Melo dropped out, I was glad to see 71 get that close to winning it. To recover from that lockup earlier, and then come back for that incredible pass, just to get passed again, that was probably one of the most entertaining moments of the entire race.

Great, great race continuing a great tradition.

Af Corse ferrari's look awkwardly similar in the dark.

So confusing that there are 458s in GTAm that have almost the same paint job as GT2.
