Tandy is absolutely flying in the Falken car. Throwing his hat into the ring for a works 991 drive next year. He deserves it IMO. He's wasted in a series like British GT.

Dumas to lost the leadership.

Beetle · 19 Oct 2013, 20:27 (Ref:3320032)

Muscle Milk #6 looks to have some serious problems. The engine cover has been removed - that does NOT bode well....

Lagunaseca_4life · 19 Oct 2013, 20:27 (Ref:3320033)

It's still isn't going to be the same car, aero is compramised and may affect turning and straight line speeds they were so good at.

And mm with troubles, rebellion on lead lap. Now.

Fogelhund · 19 Oct 2013, 20:28 (Ref:3320034)

Interesting note... PLM is on Speed... in Canada.

Lagunaseca_4life · 19 Oct 2013, 20:28 (Ref:3320036)

Rebellion for they lead.

Out of curiosity, is it nationwide or just provincial?

There is no Fox Sports Whatever in Canada. They still have SPEED Channel, but all they get is old Hard Parts and Truck U re-runs and the occasional live event.

Well Rebellion just needs to run clean to the end for back to back PLM wins now. Too bad we won't have an epic battle to the end.

I thought it was a done deal

Lagunaseca_4life · 19 Oct 2013, 20:33 (Ref:3320042)

Mm going behind the wall, have they said what's wrong? Rebellion has loose body work too.

freeballin · 19 Oct 2013, 20:34 (Ref:3320044)

What a rousing P1 battle!!!!

Falken is hanging tough which is all that matters.

What was epic about rebellion being two laps down before muscle milk had the issue? Rebellion trying to catch up and muscle milk copying their pit stops to keep them there? Such an epic battle.

Ginaro Zukovsky · 19 Oct 2013, 20:37 (Ref:3320047)

That driver in the commentary box said "the Dyson car is holding off an F1 winner"

Lagunaseca_4life · 19 Oct 2013, 20:37 (Ref:3320048)

But it's still a good way to go and anything may happen.gt is more interesting.

Edit.annnnd now a gtc caution.

Once you think it's a done deal someone like Tandy will confuse you even more with an impressive run.

Funny, I never thought of Tandy as being in the league of Lietz, Lieb, Pilet, Bergmeister, whatever, but he's really showing it today. As is Michael Christensen, for that matter.

FCY for a beached Flying Lizard.

We all know that "guests" usually don't know what they're talking about.

**PascaLM** · 19 Oct 2013, 20:40 (Ref:3320052)

Rebellion will probably win for the second time.

Snarky reply aside - in the right hands the Rebellion had the pace to likely get back on terms. With five hours to go pre-MM issue it was far from over.

Lagunaseca_4life · 19 Oct 2013, 20:43 (Ref:3320054)

MM overheating, retired.what a shame.

No majic 50 for Lucas

Beetle · 19 Oct 2013, 20:43 (Ref:3320055)

Muscle Milk has just retired the car. Not a good way to finish what can only be described as an absolutely smashing season. :/

You're right about it not being epic before but I think Rebellion was quicker and with some yellow luck or an extended green period we could have had a good race on our hands towards the end. Now, no chance.

Falken winning would be very very cool.

And now for a GTCaution! ZzZzZz.

freeballin · 19 Oct 2013, 20:45 (Ref:3320058)

If Dyson didn't get a couple rent a riders this weekend, then maybe someone could take the race to Rebellion.

BullMan · 19 Oct 2013, 20:50 (Ref:3320060)

Rebellion is the only thing that stands between Chief Tucker and an overall victory.

Birddog07 · 19 Oct 2013, 20:51 (Ref:3320061)

This yellow period is ridiculous. The spun Porsche got going like 20 minutes ago and they're still just slowly lapping around single file.
