I love Dario's response to the reporters first question. :p
 
A lot of the gt cars look good. Wish we had some of those liveries in gt5 :(
 
Yah, moved all the computers and laptop to the lounge, 24hrs on MotorsTV. BRING IT ON!
 
Green flag racin' ;)
 
Going to enjoy this race, my predictions: DP Ganassi (Franchitti/Dixon/McMurray/Montoya) GT - Risi Ferrari (#62)
 
I know it's way too early but the vettes don't look good so far. The ford seems fast though.
 
Sun Trust Racing is back on the track. :o

EDIT: Back in the garage. Not looking good for them; :\
 
Wonder what the issue is, it's a new car so there's bound the be some hiccups along the way, I'm sure the Corvette's will do well!

Gotta think positive lol, there's still 23 hours to go, ANYTHING can happen.

EDIT: GT Class leader is in the pits, along with some DP's.

I wish we could go that far in one stint on gt5 :sly:. Also is the number 5 dp a vette because that car had engine troubles in the begining.
Edit: this should be a good battle for 1st with the ford 99 vette and BMW.

The SunTrust one? Yeah, it was a Vette.

Also, the 99 Corvette DP take the lead from the 60 Ford! :D
 
Woo! The 99 Red Dragon takes the lead!

No suntrust is number 10. There was a number 5 dp that I thought was a corvette. I thought the ford would stick with it but that 99 vette is fast.
 
Great action up front in the prototypes. Some edge of the seat battles going on for the lead!

Yeah #5 is one of the Action Express cars and I believe they are running Corvettes this year.

Ok cause it looks like vettes are having engine trouble. The 5 had issues in the begining and now the suntrust. Hopefully the 99 gainsco doesn't run into issues like the other vette teams.
 
Suntrust still in the pits 20 laps down and the car won't start, they'll just drive for points now.
 
I could've sworn the SunTrust one is the one that had engine problems. But yeah, the No. 5 DP is a Vette. Currently running 11th.
 
They both had engine issues. The 5 had it on the first lap but ther only a lap down. It doesn't look good for the 10 and the ford is not done with the 99 just passed him for the lead.
 
The #5 car went out after one of the first few laps and they just changed out the ECU if I remember correctly.

Good battle between Long and Liddell going on. Liddell has his Camaro all over the back of that Porsche.
 
#5 going strong now, yea.

Little Red vs. Blue action for 1st in the DP class. :) Go Corvettes!

You sir, are SO lucky.

That was a close call for the Viper.
 
Unofficial reports that the SunTrust Vette has retired. Mainly twitter speculation but one of their drivers did tweet it.
 
Last they mentioned the Suntrust car on the Speed channel coverage they showed Angelelli getting out of the car. Apparently when they put everything back together it didn't want to start.
