2014 United Sports Car Championship

[01GTP]

I just noticed I don't see Team Sahlen.

I did notice the Nonamaker's in the Conti race running a Cayman in the ST class.

Anyone else noticed they didn't show highlights of the race so far on Fox Sports 1? I missed a huge chunk of the race yesterday.

GTD battle = aweseomeness.

EDIT: "Vegan Mafia" ​

And there goes the #4.

 

[Panoz]

#4 Corvette going to the garage.

 

[Furinkazen]

#4's blowing up.

I thought they said these debris cautions were supposed to be short, sure seems like it is taking a long time to just go grab a tire off the track.

Because silly Grand-Am caution rules.

 

[Rossell2]

Fire marshall gets so close he catches his face with fluid. Awesome.

 

[Ninners]

Caution #14.

 

[G.T.Ace]

Smokin' race. Marshalls completely overstrained.

 

[Furinkazen]

Was he even bothered that it was on fire?

And it's still burning...

 

[IforceV8]

Are they hiring retirees to run fire extinguishers or what?

 

[Mac K]

NASCAR safety teams

 

[ProjectWHaT]

Well that was an expected fire

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

That car was on for a podium until then.

These Oreca FLM09's have never ran a 24 hour race before.

 

[G.T.Ace]

At least it makes the race more exciting with another caution.
Still cringeworthy how they acted.

 

[Mac K]

I hate to laugh at these guys, but like I said before safety is no laughing matter and cutting the IMSA safety team was a big mistake. No offense to these guys, but I wouldn't feel super comfortable having my life in the hands of someone who can't even operate a fire extinguisher properly.

I really hope they make some changes after this race. Shocking how poorly that was handled.

Safety isn't political.

IMSA Stream working now

at the mics still being on...

Does anybody remember the 2012 Rolex 24 where the Motors TV coverage had the mics left on during the ad breaks? I heard "apparently his wife wouldn't let him"

 

[ProjectWHaT]

They finally showed the highlights of the race. What took them so long?

 

[Mac K]

@hawkeye122 Basically sums up the point I'm trying to make 👍

As for the LMPC..

 

[G.T.Ace]

Uhm, that was already the third or fourth time since they went on-air again today.

Really? I haven't seen any.

Bummed the Vette went behind the wall. Things are heating up lol.. glad everyone's ok, too bad for Starworks - love the pinups!

If I have to watch that stupid Fox Sports Go app commercial one more time and be reminded my Android phone can't get it... 🤬

This is something u never want to see in a 24hr race. Transmission bearing failure. Very sudden, no warning. #Sucks pic.twitter.com/2fJ8Tel3TE

 

[Ninners]

The corvette is back out.

 

[RACECAR]

First time I've heard of a Transmission bearing failure.

BTW, Morning everyone

 

[hawkeye122]

93 stuck. Interesting...

 

[Furinkazen]

#93 wasn't top Viper was it?
