You would think PWC would have a little more invested in server bandwidth.. My stream was slow / bad followed by dead shorty after the restart.

If I am not mistaken we had 5 different makes win between 5 different GT3 races this week.

Australian GT race 1: Lamborghini
Australian GT race 2: Audi
Australian GT race 3: McLaren
PWC race 1: Porsche
PWC race 2: Cadillac

Great weekend for GT3 racing. I like PWC's format better though. The Australian GT handicapping is wierd. My favorite sprint format though is the BSS 60 minute races. I think Sprint X will be good if they can get 15-20 GT3 cars in it.

Not sure if this was posted earlier in the thread but this was the reason for the Mantella exclusion.

Quote:

***Anthony Mantella, driver of the No. 8 Mantella Autosport KTM XBow GT4, was excluded from the weekend after getting into a physical altercation with another driver following Saturday’s GTS race. Neither Mantella’s entry or the sister car, driven by Martin Barkey, took part in the second race on Sunday.

***A statement from PWC on the situation read: “Following the March 5 GTS Round 1, a competitor exhibited unsportsmanlike conduct governed under Rule 1.5.11 (Driver Conduct) leading to exclusion from Round 1 as well as the entire meeting as in Rule 1.30.1 (Disciplinary Action). Any further disciplinary action will be reviewed by the SCCA Competition Board and announced in the future.”

I seem to be missing something - what has happened to reward weight? I could swear that I read someplace that new this year they would be adjusted between races on a weekend instead of between race weekends but absolutely no mention in any of the coverage of any at all.

A few post-weekend thoughts http://nasportscar.com/arm-chair-rac...r-pwc-at-cota/

wdave0 · 7 Mar 2016, 15:47 (Ref:3620916)

Another post weekend thought - do they know how bad their video stream was? I hope they plan to fix it.

markf8691 · 7 Mar 2016, 17:12 (Ref:3620937)

Is there anyway of watching the races in full if you missed them live (live in UK). Last year they used to be put up on world challenge tv after a while, is this still the case or are they on that website motor trend that you have to pay for?

Is it possible for those who have the chance to approach the cars, to collect for me the chassis number of
- GTA class green Vantage GT3 #4 De La Torre Racing Motor
- and GT class blue Vantage GT3 #67 TRG-AMR

Chassis number is visible on the bottom left of the windshield.
It is found in this format : AMRVANTAGEGT3-XXX

Thanks for your help

Someone asked about that on World Challenge's Facebook page. Here's PWC's answer:

Pirelli World Challenge Championships

10 hrs ·

WC Vision and Pirelli World Challenge would like to apologize to its fans for Sunday's black out of live streaming of the GT/GTA/GT Cup Round 2 at the Circuit of the Americas. Due to a global streaming failure in Hungary by UStream, the host streaming outlet, the event was not shown on www.world-challenge.com

and www.motortrendondemand.com. Unfortunately, the UStream hosting site's outage affected much of the programming produced by UStream Sunday.
While this unfortunate outage kept many of our trusted fans from seeing an exciting event, the replay of the COTA GT Round 2 can be seen this Sunday, March 13, at 10:30 am EST on CBS Sports Network.
In addition, PWC GT Round 3 in the streets of St. Petersburg will be shown live at 9:35 am EST on Saturday, March 12, on www.world-challenge.com
and www.motortrendondemand.com/ with Round 4 set for 3:15 pm EST on Sunday, March 13.

There was only the TRG car at St.Pete as De La Torre was a no-show due to his car having an engine issue at CoTA I believe.

TRG: AMRVANTAGEGT3-018
