Which is really sad. Oh well, at least Lotus sacked that Bahar bloke...

Yeah Danny Bahar, I too am glad he is no more.

 

[gtone339]

They retired. Quite unfortunately really, but I'm 1000% sure that they'll be stronger next year.

Hopefully 3 TS030's for next year 2013 Le Mans. 👍

 

[Mac K]

You weren't kidding.. The #73 as well..

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Steering rack issues that seem major from what Corvette Racing is saying. I think I'm done here boys.

I hope they will do it like Peugeot, two works cars and one from Oreca.

Crap crap and crap..

I might be too. I was thinking about not sleeping at all, but if the Vettes retire, I really won't have any reason to stay awake. I'll sleep and come back in the morning to watch Audi cruise trough the checkered flag.

 

[Mac K]

If the Vettes go out, I'll root for the Aston..

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

That Aston is some distance back, and I my animosity for Ferrari is just as big toward Porsche. At least my LMP1 choice is going to win again, but I'm such a diehard Corvette racing fan that I'm quite upset about this.

 

[G.T.Ace]

Well, I'll sleep now and be back in ~7 hours.
Race is more or less over anyway.

 

[TheBook]

I've got over a liter of Red Bull and a bag of potato chips. I have no plans to go to sleep tonight.

 

[Endless-Wilso]

Im 15 mins delayed so i skip commercials

 

[Wardez]

Heading to work now, shall switch to checking Twatter, Reddit, and this thread for updates, then hopefully a bit of RLM and video in my casino's cafeteria break room in between shows.

Cheers!

As am I, have a C5-R model personally signed by Ron Fellows, etc. Love the team, if they go out my weekend is ruined.

It's far from over, expect the unexpected is the rule rather than the exception.

Thats alot of Redbull my go to would be Rockstar energy though

Sad to see the vette's struggle this year

Now that's the spirit! 👍.

Anyways...erm...race is quite entertaining at the moment, huh?

I think I pop open my Pepsi and eat the two remaining mudflaps i have lying in my fridge.

And by mudflaps, I refer to the microwave pizzas.

2x20 ounce cans. RB is the only one that seems to actually work, and I keep Mark Webber employed for a bit longer. I'm also disappointed to see the Corvettes' problems, but there's always a battle and somebody to root for somewhere down the field.

Well if Dale Jr wins tomorrow then I'll be good, but for the most part at this time I'm just gutted.

 

[Nielsen]

I also feel like popping a bottle of Coca Cola. This race is too rare to miss

I do want Webber to keep his job, so, let's drink!

 

[HELLAFLUSH240SX]

Im so dissapointed about the ZR1, I guess I will hop on Forza now, and do a couple laps with it on Le Mans.

Oliver Gavin from the #74 'Vette just tweeted:

It was a gearbox problem. It never rains though...half shaft needed replacing. Bad day at the office (PR) @olivergavin

No. 73 is back on track. Let's see for how long.

Just wanted to share this fake article I wrote up for the CALM GT5 racing league that's set in a fantasy 2014 WEC universe. I was right about a certain prediction

Admittedly it wasn't that hard of a prediction, but just gotta say... I was right! (Yes, one crash, one technical problem, but whatever!)

Warning, read the text above, this is a fake article yes
