Turning into NASCAR overtime. Tow trucks are gonna be busy for a while.

Wayne Taylor is unsurprisingly throwing another hissy fit as usual

Its too bad Daytona didn't have better drainage, all the bankings just let the water lay everywhere.

What was up with Allmendinger? He looked very angry when they showed the inside video.

What was up with Allmendinger? He looked very angry when they showed the inside video.

"This is ridiculous... they're trying to get somebody hurt... no idea why they restarted" was basically what he was saying when radio-interviewed by TV while they showed him.

The Penske team cars may have an oil pressure fault, and both cars may be affected.

The Rolex 24 has become the 6 Hours Of Safety Car

Oil pump issue is the reason for the #6 behind the wall.

The Rolex 24 has become the 6 Hours Of Safety Car

Welcome to endurance racing in the 21st century. Daytona has been like this in years past, this is actually not the worst. Same thing happrns at Le Mans and Nurburgring, except they use code 60 slow zones, but they stilll last for hours and hours.

After looking at the weather radar last night, I went to bed as soon as it started raining, as I knew it would probably get flagged. Woke up 5 hours later and haven’t missed much

#66 didn't have its wiper on for some reason while approaching the bus stop behind a prototype with almost zero visibility.

Depends what point of the stint they were at. If he was near the end of a stint, the windshield would be covered with oil and grime, in which case turning on the wipers will just smear the grime making visibility even worse. They’ll wait until they make a stop, rip a tear-off off, then turn the wipers on.

Leave it to Johnny O' Connell to make an Animal House reference on air.

I think they in fact had to change the pace car in one point during last years race because the Audi was running out of fuel. I think they replaced it with one of the Rapid Response Cayennes if I'm not mistaken. 💡

912 spun trying to get in the pits.

 

[GTFan24]

912 doing a little burnout there

#912 has spun in the tri-oval.

“Can I just take a moment to say how nice it is up here in the booth. They just brought us bacon and eggs...hows it down in the pits Jamie” Johnny cracks me up

He is a professional advertiser for sure pushing the Cadillac message

He’s been a Chevy guy his entire career, I respect that about him.

He’s one of the reasons I’m really sad that GM canceled the CTSV GT3 program. Johnny was a perfect fit for it, and was still pretty damn quick.

 

[Northstar]

Back to green for now.

 

[Savolainen83]

Green flag rises, safety car exits the track and theres Lambo sideways at the exit of bus stop.

 

[Dylan]

Green Flag!

 

[Savolainen83]

nevermind

 

[GTFan24]

THIS IS NUTS

 

[Dylan]

Wrecking in 1! multiple cars!
