24 Hours of Nürburgring - June 21st-22nd 2014

[MCNAGTROC]

GTR #80 is down to 48th as it spent some time in the pits about an hour ago

#30 is 135th overall and I think is out of the race as it was involved in a crash

but #24 is quietly moving up to 18th!!!

RLM makes mention of Kaz and the crew making their way up the standings.

Eleventystupid is not as much as the Derpysnake does.

 

[Amac500]

What's Kaz's car number?

 

[MCNAGTROC]

24


they are 17th but only 1 car in front of them is on the same lap. after that you have cars that are 1-2 laps ahead so its going to be hard to really start jumping places from here without some luck

I would think a top 15 would be good considering the car was totally torn down yesterday after a big crash

 

[CAMikaze]

Now if only we had the timing equipment in each of the cars that let us know who is behind the wheel without having to resort to asking around a lot.

Neat thing about this race is all the teams that are sharing the garage share the same gas pump that is assigned! Can you imagine if this was a Creventic-organized race like the Dubai 24H and the cars had to around to the back to fuel up after their tires and driver are changed?

EDIT: #1 in for full service + driver change

Coverage for this race always really sucks, I don't understand why. I also don't understand why it can't be on the same weekend every year.

It would propably make too much sense to have a better coverage and a set date every year. Besides, variety is the spice of life, I quess.

Have any of you actually watched the last 8 hours of pit exit coverage?

Coverage sucks because it wouldn't be profitable to have coverage of it

One hour and 15 minutes till the official stream gets the trackside cameras up and running.

I've had the stream up listening to RLM, and I occasionally switch over to watch some of the cars go by. Now with the sun coming up though I've got it back on full time.

Anyone see the #14 Black Falcon SLS collision with an Aston Martin ?

From the official site (google translation):

Christodoulou(#14 driver) after hitting an Aston Martin: "The accident was unnecessary and ended up in the wall This is annoying because we were fourth and on course for a podium Although the SLS is now back in the pits, but the residue is of course now too big.. to intervene again to the front. "

 

[Savolainen83]

Yes! the live feed has picked up again. No more pit exit camera.!

Just wait until Kaz does the GT5 Nurburgring glitch and wins.

 

[PsuPepperoni]

GET TO DA CHOPPA

 

[aarror]

Got a shout out on RLM, gotta love those guys. Pity is was to tell me that the Stefan Johanssen Miata is out of the race. Tons of retirements so far, its hard to keep track of all the crazy stuff that went on during the night.

Helicopter is back up! The cameras are back!

 

[PsuPepperoni]

Audi got the lead and then did an involuntary donut

 

[Amac500]

Man that 007 Aston got slammed with penalties

 

[Savolainen83]

#1 Mercedes got a penalty for too short pit time.

 

[Amac500]

#20 BMW with problems

EDIT: Back under way.

 

[Amac500]

Apparently a hot battle for the lead between the #1 Mercedes and #4 Audi, coverage refuses to show it...

EDIT: #4 Audi through to the lead

EDIT AGAIN: Huge battle between #1 and #4, I believe Rene Rast is driving the Audi.

EDIT FOR THE 3RD TIME: #1 Mercedes given a 32 second penalty, ending that battle, #4 well into the lead. Track is quite foggy.
