Agreed, bonzai move

161 laps at 7 hours 18

22 Audi tore up the left rear on the mountain and has torn up the floor in the garage. Don't think I've ever seen the latter before.

Just completed our 8h-Update of our Race-report:

Is the Comp Coupe out? I missed it.

If so that's a sad moment. Possibly the last laps for the Dodge Viper in professional competition.

Umai Naa · 4 Feb 2018, 03:11 (Ref:3798281)

They were having issues with the understray/splitter.

It'll be back next year.

Timing shows it to be in the pits for about 10 mins...looks like 4th in class and down the order now.

Yeah, they've had some commercial products out and NAPA carried some oils but apparently they're pushing US sales now. And we get a LiquiMoly car in IMSA part time this season I think.

I just want one Moly company to bring back the old tshirts. My dad had one back in the 70s but it's long gone now.

peckstar · 4 Feb 2018, 03:24 (Ref:3798284)

timing saying Chaz in the car. commentators suggesting Farfus

edit commentators now changing opinion

Yeah Liqui Moly is available from IMC (owned by auto zone) and Worldpac (owned by advance auto parts), so basically any of those locations or stores can supply it. Been available en mass in the USA market since probably 2010 or so, but recently they've begun to push for more market share.

thanks, was wondering what happened to it. The livery on that car (and the 74) is outstanding.

E.B · 4 Feb 2018, 03:50 (Ref:3798287)

Sick to death of Mark Beretta's tourism spots and pointless interviews being showed during green flag racing. Show them in the SC bits if we have to endure them.

tux · 4 Feb 2018, 03:51 (Ref:3798288)

Seems the BMWs found their pace again.

Bizarre decision from Mostert to try and go 3 wide exiting the Elbow.

JHamilton · 4 Feb 2018, 04:09 (Ref:3798290)

Some clumsy driving there unfortunately.

fieldodreams79 · 4 Feb 2018, 04:10 (Ref:3798291)

Brilliant drive from Chaz is thrown away by him in a series of inpatient moves. And he takes the Bentley with him. Was still too early for that.

venturi · 4 Feb 2018, 04:10 (Ref:3798292)

Wow, some bad driving there.

TzeiTzei · 4 Feb 2018, 04:10 (Ref:3798293)

A bit too tight.

JoeW04 · 4 Feb 2018, 04:11 (Ref:3798294)

All a bit silly

WolfsburgRS · 4 Feb 2018, 04:16 (Ref:3798295)

totally unnecessary. i will say this race has been completely unpredictable, i've rarely seen an event with so many changes and so much uncertainty.

peckstar · 4 Feb 2018, 04:18 (Ref:3798297)

thats a shame, bit of impatience.

It always seems to be this way and that's what makes this race fun! See? Leader goes off on the restart!

venturi · 4 Feb 2018, 04:30 (Ref:3798299)

I'm supporting the 12 Competition Motorsports Porsche GT3 R so was pretty disappointed to see them pit when it went green, surely they could have worked their pit strategy better than that.

Edit - They may be ok now with the SC again.
