2018 IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar ChampionshipSports Cars

#6 Acura up to 2nd!

 

[Michelin Man]

Oh snap of course, my bad, completely forgot about the FCY .

In that case looks like #66 has pulled away nicely.

 

[RACECAR]

A car slowed down and NASCAR never misses an opportunity for a 20 minute caution.

Except that was the first (and only) caution of the race.

 

[MustangManiac]

Except that was the first (and only) caution of the race.

And it wasn't just slow, it stopped on track didn't it?

Neon party on the #29 Audi!

Edit: And in blinks on the pit limiter!

Except that was the first (and only) caution of the race.

Come to think of it, I don't know if the majority of the tracks have the infrastructure to actually pull off slow zones feasibly. Daytona for sure has the access points to make it work and the NAEC tracks might have enough, but I'm not sure how many other tracks on schedule could make that work.

 

[RACECAR]

And it wasn't just slow, it stopped on track didn't it?

Yep. It was actually stopped (On the apron if I recall).

That camera pan, showing the Audi, was cool. All the lights across my screen, made for a unique vision.

Anyone have any knowledge why the prototypes have the green light on the rear?

I know the GTD cars have that to notify others for being "gentleman" racers but why the prototypes?

I'm not seeing it?

 

[Savolainen83]

I'm not seeing it?

Edit: I'm just imagining things.
Edit 2: Wouldn't mind having one of those Caddies in GTSport. Maybe someday...

 

[Jezza819]

Another tire issue for a Mazda

Seeing the hood start to flap on the NSX. Who had the NSX losing a hood in the drinking game?

 

[Dylan]

What's with the Mazda and their tires going down. This is like what, the 4th one already?

 

[Organ-Donor]

The Cadillacs are the prime example. At least during that safety car period when they were showing incar footage and one of the Caddies had a flashing green light at the middle of its rear end.

Or then I'm just imagining things.

I just saw the Wheelen Caddy go by with it, but that seems to be the only one from what I can see

Might be, since at least the Mustang Sampling Caddy doesn't have one.

EDIT: Looks like the #99 JDC Miller prototype also has a green light on its rear?

New car teething problems, I hear they pretty much rebuilt the whole car. Not like Joest to be having so many issue though.

I just saw the Wheelen go by again and it was off so you got me

 

[AnthonyD1993]

I love how the position lights show how long the car has been in the pits when the come in.

 

[MustangManiac]

Looks like the FSGO stream just died, surely they didn't change channels in the middle of the hour did they?

 

[L8 Apex]

Starting to think the team might not be the issue, and those Multimatic tubs might need an exorcism...

 

[Dylan]

Acura #7 to the lead!
Edit: nevermind

 

[Savolainen83]

Love the light package on that #29 Audi. :tup:

 

[Sentry87]

Damnit, I'm not home and want to watch this. Im in united states so imsa.tv stream doesn't work. And I'm not home to watch fox sports. And my service provider is PlayStation vue so I can't use fsgo app!

All I have is my android

 

[MustangManiac]

First reboot of the night

PM me, I have a free site to stream it but don't know if you can use it on a phone anymore

 

[Jezza819]

I love the way those Ford GT's look at night with their accent lighting.

 

[flip55]

Was there a reg change that allows or mandates the GTLM cars to have white headlights instead of yellow? Not used to seeing it on the GT cars.

I also noticed in some of the promo pictures that GTLM cars had clear/white headlights instead of the normal yellow. From reading it looks like going forward P and GTLM cars will have clear headlights and only GTD will have yellow.

 

[Michelin Man]

Cherishing that Ford 1,2 in GTLM, for now..

 

[MustangManiac]

That #29 Audi looks like something out of the movie Tron with all those lights...guess they don't want anybody to run into it due to not being able to be seen
