Hindy is going overboard with his ALMS praise again..

"No competition yellows, this isn't manufactured"

I don't think he realizes that competition yellows in NASCAR usually happen within the first 10-20 laps...I wonder how you manufacture a 500 mile race that way...

This could be a break for Dyson as he should be pretty fast with no one out in front of him. Pagenaud is much better in traffic.

Lol, there have been a bunch of questionable crap coming out of his mouth. While he may know sports cars he is still your typical race announcer imo

We evidently must have something to complain about!

Gap between Dyson and Simon bounces back and forth between .2 and .8 of a second depending on T&S updates.

UPDATE: 3:00 to go and gap is .6 0f a second.

Yeah, that kind of annoyed me. Nascar may be questionable in some people's eyes, but there is no way that it is completely "scripted" as Hindy claims.

Good stuff DYSON Racing! Congrats! Was going to make a comment earlier about the motor lasting for longer than 2 minutes! Glad I didn't now!

Awesome race in all classes! One of the best I've seen in some time.

I hate that Intersport had motor troubles (again), but when they were in there, it was an awesome scarp through the field.

Well done to Autocon! When Tomy was in the car it was going quite well.
Jag- No Mechanical issues! Only the silly punt by Goossens.
Good final stint by Van Overbeek too.

Streaming was fantastic today, it hardly ever broke up for me. But due to a knackered sound card I had to get the commentary through my i phone which kept breaking up. was this the same for everyone or just me? Anyway that was a fantastic race!

dj4monie is heading for a stewards' enquiry!
I missed the first hour doing some errands. The replay will be up though soon. Not sure what happen to Drayson and I don't want to know.

Congrats to Dyson for winning overall.

Smashing battle in GT and Risi and Melo... Keep it going we need to win all the way out to keep Flying Lizard from winning the Championship.

Only 8 points down, thanks Jamie for using the cheat sheet.

Can anybody stop Black Swan?

Congrats to Christophe Bouchut and Tucker for another victory in LMPC and great job by G-Oil and Gunnar to rebound after that late spin to get back on the podium.

Okay off to finish watching Cup Pole and the Zippo 200.

Great result for Dyson. Even though I am a Highcroft fan, I was willing Dyson over the line towards the end. The team and the series needed it. Great stream too. Towards the end there was mention of future live streaming, or words to that effect.

Fantastic result for Dyson, well deserved, shame for Intersport, but any engine with an AER badge on it is a bomb waiting to go off.

Pretty disappointed with the GT result, some shoddy driving by the BMW's at times especially Milner in the early stages.

Wow, that was an amazing race!.
If the ALMS can keep up just half of that action, and a stream to europe, I will be watching the rest of the season for sure!.
This race is exactly what the ALMS needs to keep going.
And to all those against the "support for privateers instead of big manufactures" - haha, this is what privateers can do, and what manufactures can't.
