belt driven has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Greetings race fan(atic)s.

Like the thread title. I took a picture from a side street of a bucket truck changing the overhead street signs from Volusia Blvd. to ISB. This was during the 24 in '92-'95 on a Sunday morning.

Does any statistician know the maximum historic endurance of a Mazda turbo 4? What about the average?

Don't know about overseas; but http://livescoring.us/2020/imsa01/ is the ticket stateside. I've used it the last 2 petits on the world's cheapest/dumbest/smartphone.

Hope IMSA TV works Friday...

It is, but that Audi is looking menacing. They could be a factor come the end.

Late yellow. Not sure we'll go green again. IMSA doing the wave around early in an attempt to prepare for it though. I'll be super impressed if they clean this up and go green again.

Been a really good race. Clean, no unnecessary yellows.

There's been a number of things that could have necessitated a yellow and I would have understood. I appreciate the hesitancy go yellow all the time.

It is sad to know two of the most unique sounds are gone. I couldn't tell too much about the porsche from qualifying, I saw the Corvette at petit do the parade lap, and while it definitely lost character, it still sounds good. As long as the porsche still has the unmistakable sound it has on deceleration and downshifting, I'll still love it. Theres something about it I can't explain without mimicking it, but it is so cool.

Any chance there will be any good links around the time the race starts?

A lot of streams for events are temporary. Often put up in a reaction to when a service dies - something the IMSA site (and WEC site) manage quite often during the biggest events. He's asking if anyone knows of anyone planning such a stream.

I think it’s around 1830 UK. Kinda hard to work out on the IMSA site as it says the race starts at 1230 but TV starts at 1330. So something is wrong there (as always is with the IMSA times - someone should give them a Mickey Mouse Watch). Other sources say 1830 UK.

Race start is 1340 local time, an hour earlier than the last few years. UK is five hours ahead so 1840 start UK time.

Unable to sign up for NBCSG Trackpass. Tried yesterday during the Pilot Challenge, last night, and this morning. When I click register, it goes back to Capcha box.

Any suggestions?
