I was enjoying the commentary from the IMSA Radio crew on Fox Sports 2. Except they seem to have spent most of the last half hour going on a tangent about Nissan engines rather than talking about what's happening on the track.

Put a touring car engine in to a Nissan micra, where the rear seats used to be, and you get a Nissan Hilarious.
Ford GT #67 drove to the garage, rearwing damaged.

They tend to go on tangents. It's nice when you're watching the whole race, instead of repeating things over and over.

The new 911 GTE is just stunning. And its arse is beginning to become a bit GT1 like.

Porsche #54 in the wall at the bus stop. Lost it at the braking apparently.

Loving the race so far, but these cautions a beyond painful. 20 minutes to clear a single car stopped off track on a flat, open area. Not good.

It was on the end of the braking zone where cars are approaching 200mph plus, ON WET. I doubt you would like to be there yourself, trying to move that wreck never knowing if another car barrels towards you uncontrolled.
Better to have the pace car out managing the speed until the cars and personnel are off track safely.

It's the year 2017, slow zones / code 60's are a thing. And do drivers not have to follow yellow flags in America or something?
Anyway, I'm well aware of the how difficult track management is for American categories and how trigger happy they are on the yellow, so it wasn't necessarily the full course yellow itself that bothers me (because I gave up on that crusade years ago), but more the fact that they're quite happy to spend 20+ minutes stuffing about with pitstops, shuffling, classes, wavearounds etc, when there should instead me a race going on.

SC for weather
SVG and one of the Stevenson Audi's were in the 2:12.9s, everyone else was at least 3-5 seconds slower, some a lot more than that. Too bad.
#50 car looks like it's been chasing hard. I saw they had the puncture early, but was there another setback after that? Seems like they keep getting close to being back in the mix, then dropping back again.

I hope they have good plumbing or at least snorkels on those PC's, wouldn't wanna drown in the cockpit would you?
