Just a quick question: how do I get my signature to show up? I edited and saved it in the settings page but its not shoving up?

Edit: Aaaand now it works.
 
"I have this grapefruit. You can have it if you give a little push."

That one is showing.

44 only has one taillight. Thankfully its daytime or else it could be mistaken for a motorcycle :dopey:.

I think it's been out most of the race.

I wonder if they're using this same headlamp idea they had at Lime Rock last year.
It does not look as though it would project any light for night driving and is only used for daylight events......?

Yep, it started showing right when I ask why it doesn't show up. :dunce:

Probably after a site refresh or whatever the term is.
 
#3 Corvette lost a wheel and cuts through the grass. I hope he goes back and replaces his divet. :lol:
 
I love that the Mazda's are out of GX and now, no one cares about that class. Only Porsches left there. It's almost as if there's so many Porsches, no one really cares about them.

I am just glad they finally got rid of that screaching RX8!
 
Something's wrong with the corvette? The guy is slowing down.

Edit: He went in for repairs.
 
#2 Starworks car has gone off. Wondering if there is some handling issues on it.

Speak for yourself.. I think it's a bit of a shame what happened to the Mazda's, especially after all the work that was put into them.

Having 3 wheels is usually a tell tale sign ;)
 
#69 almost taken out by Mortara in the #24 Audi. That team might have a target on their back :lol:

Maybe they should paint it in camo next year :)
 
Timing down? :odd:

EDIT: Ignore.

02 stopped on track, caution out.


And darn, I miss that old folk beard on Marcos.
 
02 is stopped on the track, FCY.
 
"Dario, the 01 needs a caution to change brakes."

"Okay I'll park the car right here."
 
The #10 crew leader said they stopped the #02 to fix the #01 under yellow, get real...
 
02 officially retired.
 
The bus stop's going to be practically erased by the end of this race. :)

As a matter of interest: what makes you guys love enduros? Most of you were here last year, too, IIRC, when the Dinger pulled it off. One of the things that interest me strongly is how the machines perform.
 
Ganassi is no stranger to dirty business, but I couldn't see them just giving up like that to change the brakes..
 
Juan Pablo to finish the race!
 
And Wayne Taylor has become a huge lunatic just now. I mean really, the #02, the same car that at times was even faster then the 01, just "stops" just to help the 01? Name me one time where a Multi-car team retires a competitive car just to help another competitive car.

This. I'm sure Ganassi would much rather have a 1-2 finish than a 1-RET.

The war of the words continues, as Franchitti says that he has a feeling other teams are sandbagging. :lol:
 
The man's been up all night, he's probably frustrated and tired.. (Taylor)

Good question, I'm a huge fan of Endurance/Sports car racing, no matter if it's Grand-Am, ALMS, WEC, VLN, etc I love the cars, the tracks, the drivers, the teams, and the overall atmosphere and "passion" if you will. There's just something about doing 200 mph at 3 A.M. In traffic after running all day that appeals to me and I have massive respect for every driver. Oh and the racing is usually pretty close and there is always something cool happening somewhere. I mean I like NASCAR, Indycar, F1, etc but in my opinion they don't even come close to endurance racing.
 
I'm beginning to believe the sand bagging part. Those Corvettes are going alot faster then they've been complaining and they haven't been outpaced nearly as much as they say they are.
 
Speed has missed countless lead changes with countless commercials
 
Looks as though those new brakes were a good idea on the 01.
Pruett to the lead, wow.


Oh, and Hi to my family.
