Last night RLM said none of timing screens know because it's one transponder per car, the ones which say a driver have just picked a random one.

"Radio Le mun!" dot caum. So friggin annoying.

I think I said this last year too but Kaz must feel like the king of the world at this event. GT logos everywhere, 15 years ago he probably had not idea what he was getting into.

Station ID, it's a must.

Ya lol. I understand that. but, its so annoying.

I wouldn't be surprised if that hydrogen Aston will be in GT6 or 7.

 

[Nielsen]

That Haribo Porsche makes me hungry for winegum bears.

It pretty neat eh? I wonder what it sounds like. It would be cool to see that Gt6.👍

Its a 6.0ltr twin turbo V12 and sounds the same on Hydrogen as it does on Petrol 👍

They talked about it on the midweek motorsport programme

Even when on 100% hydrogen it's still a noisy beast?

When I was at the track yesterday it was lacking a bit of oomph compared to the 007 Aston, but that could also be due to the different regulations of the cars. It still had a nice sound thought.

What I found quite funny was when the C6 Corvette got passed by a SLS. God that C6 sounded puny compared to the SLS. But the sound of all the GT3 cars required me to change my underpants. Got some nice photos of cars entering Hatzenbach in the dark in full rain.

Yep its dead

On the upside, they read out my post on RLM.

Quote Olaf Manthey:

"Repairs on #50 about 20minutes"
"#18 can't get temperature into tyres"

Edit:

Radio update #2 R8 LMS car retired at Schwedenkreutz, too bad, I rooted for them from the beginning on.

[Tarkata]

Am I the only one that thinks the 123# would had a chance to win if they had not an engine failure early in the race?

Nope, they would've been up there for sure.

 

[Andy89]

SP7 #18 Manthey Racing is going very well being only 3 minutes behind the leader! Hoping for a surprise victory!

Still going but down in 155th place, the last lap was a 15:40, fingers crossed that was with a pitstop.


Manthey #50 back out 👍
