But still, both doors had heavy damage, one off... how?!

He went backwards into the tires, and at Tertre Rouge you're carrying quite a good amount of speed. I'm guessing he hit at an angle, and those doors aren't attached to the car quite as strongly as they are on a road car, for instance.
 
Hopefully he's alright. Can't wait for the race to get going again, we had a good battle going there. The LMP2 pack looked cool too, about 10 cars all swapping places. :crazy:

I don't know mate.. I would love to see a proper replay as to how that happened. The one I saw was the one from the Mulsanne straight which caught it when the car had smashed on the wall already.

And the whole rear boot lid was ripped off as well.

Problems for #25 ORECA?
 
I'm thinking Audi is going to push back and show some speed here when we go back to green. Audi doesn't like being behind on pace like this.
 
One of the great things about this race is that we can root for up to 4 different cars! :)

So, we already said who we're going for in P1, but how about the rest? I haven't made up my mind yet but so far I like the Aston and Viper cars, and in P2 I'm somewhat inclined towards the Greaves car of the GT Academy boys.
 
Dr Ulrich updating his Twitter...what do we think he'll be saying?

We will win. Easy.

:lol:

Looking forward to this race so much. Hopefully Toyota can show the same pace in whatever conditions this track will turn into in the following hours.
 
Gear shift issue for car 25 mechanics will do their best to get Shinji Nakano back out soon
 
Ah so Corvette haven't had enough testing with the new compound tire, that is part of the issue. So I misquoted the person who was trying to tell me this yesterday.

I've already nailed my colours to the Aston Martin mast. British and they sound amazing! :)

I've always liked Corvette Racing though, and seeing as though I'm in a Dodge family I feel affinity too for SRT motorsports - so I'm going for 3 cars in 1 class, haha!
 
Wow, Mark Patterson. Been a long while since I heard or seen anything about him.
 
I just looked at the weather forecast, we may have some shower at 6 local time. Around 2 hours and a half from now.. There's a chance for some shower anyway.
