@AJ

- Race for the Nissans to be classified now.

What?

In a change of tone, I just found this on facebook. Time flies... 2 years already...

Toyota #1 car says no rain on track, false alarm it seems

 

[townha99]

Well, I can't take onboards anymore so I'm heading to bed for an hour until Fox Sports stats up again. Just hope I don't oversleep. If I do, thanks everyone, you all made it even more enjoyable!

 

[Omnis]

It's slippery in erogenapolis.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

#9 Audi sounded very strange coming out of the first Mulsanne chicane then, sounds like the hybrid problems are serious.

@AJ
What?

The Nissans are now fighting to stay ahead of the 70% rule to be classified.

Thing is, car makers don't go to Le Mans to get points for trying. Gathering data and all that jive, yeah, kinda. But they go there to sell cars.

From a business point of view, they're most likely not quite happy. They went all hipster with their car design for the sake of being different and ended with a car that's almost 20 seconds of the pace and has reliability issues. Remember what Andy Palmer said?

It backfired and I don't think Nissan likes the PR they're getting. Someone at Nissan's probably sweating and losing a lot of sleep right now.

Posting such things about Nissan are not met kindly by some people here.

No. 23 Nissan in the garage.

 

[Bo]

You put your 22 in, your 23 out, in, out, in, out...

I agree onboards are boring.

How do you mean?

 

[Silent Drifter]

9 goes in the garage

 

[Eva]

How do you mean?

Last Nissan Conversation here was a borderline civil war. Just smile and wave and and don't backtrack too far.

Keep driving that 21 tire on tire off tire on tire off. Stop go, stop go. Angry Marshal HAI!

 

[silverman_GT]

Where else can i enjoy non-onboard livestreams?

 

[Vinylshark]

Lotterer is flying again. Hopefully he can unlap himself and catch up to the Porsches for an awesome finish.

Imagine all top 6 facing hybrid issues and Toyota finishing 1-2, we can hope!

- Race is on target for 393 laps.
- 70% = 276.
- At 15 laps per hour the #23 is on track for 271.

 

[Speedracer8218]

Well I'm sure Porsche remembers this commercial, expect Audi to get a "thank you" card

Now that would be something.

@TwinTurbo LM that's illegal, please delete it before the mods do it

 

[sk8er913]

Does the number 8 have body work damage?

 

[CodeRedR51]

You put your 22 in, your 23 out, in, out, in, out...

At this point I think it's just routine. Run a few laps, check the car over, run some more laps, check it again, etc, etc.

 

[AJ]

Does the number 8 have body work damage?

Yes, left rear wheel arch.

Duct tape is not enough!

Wasn't sure if it was, thanks.

 

[GTPorsche]

Nice slide BR01.

 

[mikeerfol]

Yeah I think someone posted it again last night and they were told it was illegal.
