LOL new ford GT is already broken and pitting from mechanical issues

 

[Daunt]

Ford was stuck in sixth gear. Haha.

 

[Peeble]

They tried 3 steering wheels and that didn't fix it , hope the other Ford doesn't break.

 

[Slider]

Pf...new cars...every time

 

[Peeble]

Ford is going to the garage, someone lost a tire during yellow flag pit stops

 

[Daunt]

Pf...new cars...every time

Hopefully they won't be like Nissan in the LMP1.

 

[Peeble]

The Delta Wing is crazy, everything looks so huge compared to it.

 

[AbbyTheFoxx]

I have VLC and livestreamer installed, and set the player location to vlc.exe in the C drive under Program Files x86, removed the # from in front of player but have no idea what to do next.... I tried pasting the thing into the command prompt and it just says unknown command

EDIT: Nevermind got it working, was putting the command in the VLC console and not Windows command.

Pretty awesome so far. Amazed that the GTLM top 5 are within four seconds of each other, even after 8 hours. GTD seems pretty much the same too

The constant cautions that PC cars are causing probably have something to do with that

 

[Skid_Marc_]

Can we agree that the PC cars are a worthless class at this point?

Also, its been enjoyable listening to all the cry baby DP's, when, all of the sudden, they dont seem so slow anymore.. I hope IMSA doesnt take the power away from the P2 cars. It may be an advantage here with the high speeds, but if they take away the power, then the DP's have proven theh will destroy the P2's at tighter and slower race tracks..

It makes me wonder, though, do you think the DP's have been throttled back to help with longevity?

 

[Slider]

IMHO, PC and whatever other DP class have ruined cars that are running in them. Woo IMSA....

 

[Daunt]

I thought one of the classes went to pretty much exact FIA GT3 spec? Isn't it GTD? Confused because the new M6 is in GTLM

 

[Steve7Plays]

aaa GTLM = FIA GT3 sepc cause thats where Matthias Lauda and his C7 team is Racing

 

[Daunt]

That doesn't make sense.

There are in the GTD class:
lamborghini huracan GT3
Audi R8 LMS GT3
Porsche 911 GT3
Aston Martin Vantage GT3
Dodge Viper GT3-R

 

[Peeble]

That finish, holy shit.

 

[Jes_971]

Yea, down to the wire. Last 4 hours was pretty entertaining really.

 

[Skid_Marc_]

Finally a P2 car gets to shine at Daytona! They all did everything they could to throw it away (how many penalties did that #2 Ligier have?), but it was nice to see something other than a DP in victory lane!

Crushing result for Lambo. The whole GTD class must have taken notes from my fuel calculations.. I know Kyle's Happy though!

I like how shocked the commentators are that Corvette let their two teams race to the end. It's Corvette, not Porsche.

Really disappointed that Wayne Taylor Racing knew they had fumes in the car and they decided to put Max into that car. Hope he is okay, but if IMSA will black flag you for a piece of debris dangling from the car, how can they not force the team to fix that?
