Looks fantastic! I know dark red and silver is the classic Lizard Porsche livery, but personally I think the blue and white is a better look for the Audi.

The team I race with normally (rbankracing.com) will be out there with two cars: an early 90's Honda Civic, and a 1999 Saab 9-3. The entry list shows two Honda's for them but one of them is actually the Saab.

The black one won the Daytona ChumpCar race earlier this year and the Silver car won Daytona last year and is the car that will be at this race.

Here is an updated entry list. Some more interesting entries including a Praga R1 (if I'm not mistaken are raced in the Dutch Supercar Challenge)

Factory Five entering their GTM kit car, oddly TFB's BMW car was listed and now is off, yet their site says they are competing in the 25...might be a couple more entries at the last minute

I see a second FLM entry. Looks like they pulled one of the RSR's out of storage.

Having a 2nd pit stall is always useful in the 25H. :-)

Qualifying just ended, here's the top ten:
(Position/Number/Team/Car/Class)
1 #67 ONE Motorsports Radical SR3 (ESR)
2 #8 Ryno Racing Team Ginetta LMP3 (ESR)
3 #52 JFC Racing Wolf GB08MJ-K20 (ESR)
4 #17 Davidson Racing Norma M20F BMW (ESR)
5 #16 Davidson Racing DR Eagle (ES)
6 #45 Flying Lizard Motorsports Audi R8 LMS (ES)
7 #3 Quick Racing Products Superlite SLC (ES)
8 #69 Gryphon Racing Praga R1 (ESR)
9 #00 Award Motorsports/Ehret Porsche 997 Cup (ES)
10 #6 CLP Motorsports Elan/NASA NP01 (NP01)

Sounds like the traffic was pretty heavy, and it looked like it on the Lizard onboard.

Traffic in qual at the 25 is always about luck. Sometimes you get lucky and a clear lap, but almost never... not for the fastest cars or the slowest. They really need to split qualifying up into at least a slower group and faster group. Or just take times from practice as well and grid the race by fastest official recorded lap. There's simply too many cars of differing speed potential out there at the same time.

Having said that.. qualifying doesn't matter. The top cars will catch the back of the field by the end of the first lap. Should be an interesting race if the ESR cars can hold together.

Ginetta is a really cool looking and sounding car. Skeens superlite sounds like a can am car. The Davidson Norma is the class of the field speed wise..looks like the lizards may outlast the esr cars tho. If lmp3 is going to be a future class in imsa..they will have to be faster..I know it is early on in development...but it was only marginally faster than the gt3 audi

I keep getting a popup that says I need a Livestream account to view the stream, must be different depending on geographic area.

For anybody else who can't access the Endurance Radio stream, Mazda has one that rotates between multiple cars onboards and a pitcam. Good way to see a number of the other cars, or at least their rear bumpers!

The Lizards stream is down, by the way:

The gaps between the cars in the standings reminds me of the days at the Daytona before Grand Am. I miss that in a ways. To see a car win the Daytona 24 by a margin of 5 SECONDS does not seem that big of deal anymore. I doubt they do much wave arounds at thunderhill.

Great to see Flying Lizard kicking a$$ by the way.

you might have been logged in to facebook. It asks me to log in, but it's a simple overlay that's quickly removed with your ad blocking element hiding selector tools and doesn't further impact the site once removed.
