Hmm can you see the whole track from where you are at? I know some spots you can and some you can't. I was thinking about going but I didn't.

Those are good seats you can see everything in the infield. Good place too watch the viper saving it. :p

Edit what happened to that Porsche did it just die on the back stretch?

The idiots on Speed came back from commercial, showed the car getting hooked up to the tow and then didn't talk about what happened or show a replay... too busy listening to themselves talk. Then cut to the Risi Ferrari getting it's flat tire changed and didn't mention if it was the result of contact, a lockup, or just random.

Unofficial reports that the SunTrust Vette has retired. Mainly twitter speculation but one of their drivers did tweet it.

Another tweet (just saw it on the stream) they'll try getting back out in an hour and a half, must be a big job to repair.
 
Can I ask to all the Americans viewing this thread, how do you resist the urge to throw your remote at the Television screen? I'd be so frustrated with all of these adverts.

You grow up with it, sadly. For a while there used to be races where they had half the screen dedicated to watching the race, half for adverts (though adverts had dominant audio).

Shame SPEED won't do the same here. I blame FOX. I always blame FOX for anything and everything.
 
I apologize for post errors, AT&T sucks. 5 bars, slow loading lol

I cant get over how sexy #51 is.

P.s. this week I will be putting together a "rolex" race. Couldnt attend the other one obvoiusly lol

HA this actually isn't even that bad compared to watching normal programming. The commercial breaks have been relatively short.

Seriously, it is awful though. I'm not sure why I pay to have Ads delivered to me easier.

I'm Canadian, but same thing. Some channels are worse.

IDK, I get up and grab some more chips and a soda. Doesn't bother me. If something big happens they cut back right away..

They pretty much only do that for NASCAR coverage... and a bit during Indy races.
 
Can we get some of these Daytona Prototypes made in GT5? The new body styles look pretty cool. And the new Corvette prototype too. Way better looking than the Nissan 390 road car.

You think this is bad, wait til the Super Bowl. It's about 4 hours worth of commercials with a little football thrown in.

The 51 is one of my favorite cars out there but they don't seem to be doing that good.
