2016 Le Mans 24 Hours - 15th to 19th June 2016

[Organ-Donor]

As I worked crew at two ALMS and I do know though, that ROAR, and baffled exhaust note DOES totally have a great, jaw-dropping, sound and vibe to it. Like I said, I do get nostalgic AF sometimes. Also, those Banshee-whining tranny's, twin-disc (I think) clutches, and gritty sounding LSD's sound so mean. I can't deny that. I just embrace the future, and love me a high revving, boosted, higher-compression Honda Motor Sound. I'm also DRUNK AF.

Haha respected. Cheers

Initial D?

Gundam on Toonami actually, and Dragonball Z, or something fitting watching TS050-tan (and hopefully the Vettes) go to victory

Yep went to first aid at arnage the ambulance'd up to the circuit medical centre.

Well, at last. Still such a way to almost ruin the experience. Will you still be able to take pics?

My dog is sitting in the room barking at me, I think he likes being ignored more than the wife...or maybe he just wants more pizza

Noticing something here between the Porsche and Toyota.

The Porsche seems to make inroads when the Toyota is heavy with fuel but then kinds of fades off when the TS050 gets lighter over time. Honestly I think Toyota can a be bit faster if they wanted to/need to.

#13 Rebellion putting in some decent lap times in the 3:26's

Their approach all week has been head down and set a steady pace. Watching Audi do that forever they have finally learned it.

or it is the paint job...

What the hell is going on this weekend?

#92 Porsche 911 is in the garage.

RIP #92 Porsche.

Are these WEC Feed commentators a bit tipsy or just really, really tired?

Probably a little of both.

Radio Le Mans on-air and twitter banter is a class above. We've had Tinder, milk floats, jewelry, not understanding people, and intelligent and stupid sides of a studio in last 5 minutes

 

[NW48]

Probably a little of both.

Still better than Eurosport's commentators though.

I do miss John Hindhaugh though...

Neither of the feeds here in Australia (Fox Sports and Eurosport) are using Radio Le Mans unlike previous years, so I'll probably switch to that soon since they are a class above.

#34 into the gravel

 

[Furinkazen]

#34 ORECA off.

 

[CarBastard]

How, and/or, why the hell does a rim exlode???

 

[chrisjohnson93]

Slow Zones in the Indianapolis and Arnage area.

#7 stopped at the entrance to the Bugatti circuit

 

[NW48]

We got a car stopped on the entry to the Bugatti circuit.

Nooo! It's the #7 Audi!

 

[GTPorsche]

Stress fracture in the structure of the rim. Eventually the braking force rips it apart.

 

[Bo]

More issues for the #7.

 

[Furinkazen]

RIP #7 Audi

 

[Silent Drifter]

#7 Audi is parked up somewhere.

 

[GTFan24]

At this point its probably best to retire the #7. One of the unluckiest audis i have ever seen.
