Haha, been up since about 9:30. It's only 10:03 here, I slept in so I can finish the race at 6 A.M. here haha... Like I said got my Monster's ready. ;)

I've got some super tea or coffee I could pound, but I'm not seeing a reason to.

If there was a battle for the win, it would be easier to stay up. At 1am, it feels like we are just waiting to give Audi and whomever else their trophies.

Sorry BOB (Varsha), but 2nd place being a damned lap down is not in the fight for the win.

Yeah, fully agree. It'll be tough to stay awake the remaining 8 hours and I'm actually questioning the value of doing it right now. Already sipped two cans of Monster which helped me stay awake but is wrecking my stomach :sick:

There's still a long way to go. Anything could happen. We have more rain on the way and the toyotas may be able to pit two times less than the Audi. We still have a race here.

That's true. Iced tea and beer it is!!!

Remember anything can happen. #1 Audi had the lead with a similar gap but had problems and now 10+ laps behind. Under 8 hours left.
 
And the weather also has something to play with...

I don't think so, Audi is known for winning by durability.
 
The Level 5 team exhaust fires are funny. The crew just does their stop as if the fire next to them is a normal thing :lol:

To be honest, it actually is a normal thing for that car. Fourth or fifth time it tries to burst in flames.
 
Look at that windscreen washer on the #2 Audi! That is why they are leading by such a margin 👍

With just under 8 hours to go, being down a lap is nothing. All it takes is one mishap or crash on the track, or a car issue for 2nd to take 1st place. I mean one of those issues happen and taking longer than 4 minutes is all to lose top spot.
Still.. go audi!!!
I might crash on the sofa watching the race as long as I can. Had an exhausting day today, amazed I'm still up even if I'm a bit of an insomniac
 
As just stated on the broadcast, "a flat tire at the wrong place on this race track and an 8 and a half miles to get back, there went the lead".

We've got a full moon gents! (Or there about)
 
I may have missed a half hour or 45 minutes of the race at most. Its a little after 1am and I have no plans on stopping now. Hopefully we have a great finish.
 
Suspension problem for #41 Zytek.. They just came out of the pit and got that problem.
 
My stream just died :(.

Which one do you guys reccomend at the moment? (One that isn't region blocked please!)

I can stay up, my sleep patterns are about of whack anyway. My wife knows what I'm watching. So that base is covered.

Hearing weird sounds, tripping balls!!!!
 
Did not like seeing that Aston in the paint...

:(
 
@ the place where the retired cars are stored: LOL FERRARI!
 
A very nice touch to our late Allan Simonsen...

Nooooooooo!.... 30 min power nap, managed to turn into a full 3 hour fail sleep. :grumpy:

I've got the feeling i missed quite a lot.

My gf thinks i'm weird because I watch endurance races, especially 24h. I don't think i'm going to marry her. I probably won't endure with her, at least that's what she said. Lol
 
The leading Audi is still lapping faster than the 2nd place Toyota.. At this rate, either a mechanical failure or rain can shake things up.

Just don't have her to do the 9 Hours of Tsukuba with you. My daughter and I were doing stints and that was the last time she played GT5 :(
 
Almost a huge accident involving the #1 Audi.
 
What did I just see?!
 
The No.1 Audi is catching up :D.
