Well guy's, my mind is saying "stay up and watch the race!", but my body is saying "Go to bed now, or I will not be with you."
Body wins. See You tommorow/later.

Should be soon, they said it would take an hour + to remove the old gearbox and fit a new one. That was just over an hour ago.👍

Yeah I think it's done, the RLM interviewer in the pit lane asked JLOC if the car is coming back out they said yes but 10minutes from the end, they're debating wether they will be allowed to or not. Somthing to do with running for a minimum of 80% of the race.

Saleen is still first.
Running out of cars in GT2. Spyker just might win it at this rate. I think the last time they didn't finish a LeMans is when they...umm...caught on fire and burned to the ground like the Audi RS8 at Nurburgring. I mean, out of 18 or 19 entries, 6 are out. that leaves about 13 cars left. and there's still 12 hours left.

There's no chance for the JLOC car to fight for position. They're alredy 97 laps down and with the not so good pace, impossible to go up. So it's done for them and going out 10 laps before the end is a good move. But they wouldn't be classified as finishers eh? They are not doing 70% of the leaders laps.

Judging from the Pit crew's body language and all those 'well done' handshakes and hugs, it looks like game over.
Another team (and cars) I was supporting gone.
EDIT: Now Confirmed

the GT! Corvettes are whiny little babies. They're the ones that killed GT1 in ALMS 'cause no one but Aston Martin wanted to put up with their whining. The GT2 team seems less whiny though and like competing with the other teams. Whereas, with the GT1 team, they can crash and STILL complain about the extra weight. (12Hours of Sebring a couple years ago when the C6 first ran, one Vette's brakes exploded and the other I think had a run in with a Porsche. The new DB9R won the race...barely. and the Vette Team complained that they would have won if hadn't been for the extra weight...not because they crashed, but because there was too much weight.)

And wasn't it all the other teams whining that got the Corvettes that extra weight? I do believe it was, but the reason GT1 died wasn't from whining and you know it. Even with all of the penalty's placed against the vettes they still managed to win even after the ACO continued to put smaller air restrictors and more weight on the car. The other teams just couldn't put enough money into there cars to compete.
