In reply to LainfordExpress:

Must have been very brief because I didn't see it. Being a "hill jack" I find your attitude very ugly. It's clear that you have some prejudices or just really hate Nascar.

However I agree that pulling away for more than a ten minute update is unnecessary.

I have been looking foward to the 24 hrs of Le Mans for a long time. My favorite race of the year bar none. I just don't see the need to blast speed for covering other racing series that happen to be going on at the same time.

Because it is nothing coverage. It's like cutting away from a NASCAR race to tell us a local dirt track is going to delay the feature to wet down the track. Completely pointless and unecessary. It could've been covered in the first five minutes of their already scheduled NASCAR qualifying coverage.

I've just given up on SPEED. Even if I had cable, I'd be watching the race on the internet. There's guys re-streaming European coverage, the ACO website has onboards from multiple cars, there's teams with pit/paddock webcams, etc.

I'm actually using the Rampageturke2 on Justin (the link Duke of Understeer found for q'fying) since they already have Radio Le Mans audio, with the ACO T&S page called up in another browser. The T&S page is also where you can watch the onboards, I've got it set to the #2 Audi (I'm a McNish fan).

I'm an Audi fan, I can remember several years ago I was so excited that Audi won that I found myself smiling and waving to random people who were driving Audi's. They all looked at me like I was insane. I wanted to fly an Audi flag of the back of my car.

I can't get any of the links to stream on the ps3. I have no choice but to watch speed. I am listening to Radio Le Mans currently.

Wow....that was two hard hits. That wasn't the same driver that took out Rocky last year, was it?

Per ACO T&S: #81 AF Course Ferrari 458, Pezzarini/Griffin/Cadai. Shows Pezzarini in the car.

I'm sorry guys. I don't care about all this Le Mans stuff. I really want to hear from Carl Edwards and how the Aflac Ford Taurus is doing on his 2 lap qualifying heat... I don't want to hear about the Frying Gizzard crash, the Audi crash, the Toyota pass on the Audi in the grass, and the massive crash at about 160 and how he flipped like a piece of cardboard...

Wowowow, did I tune in at the right time or what? Super Toyota/Audi battle for the lead, #3 Audi in a wall, #7 and #1 cars trading the lead corner after corner and then the #8 car flipping through the air! What a race!

Incident killed a great battle for the lead up front. Hope we get to see more of that.

I hope so as well. What a bonehead move.

And his comment that he was focused on the corner basically blaming the Toyota for dive bombing him is completely unforgivable imho.

Well damn, looks like the Toyota cars must have switch drivers because that kind of dick move is reserved for that douchebag Davidson.

Yeah seriously! Why battle so hard right off the yellow with 18 hours to go? Give it a couple laps for traffic to thin then start reeling them in...

Well, now with Toyota in the garage, my interest in P1 is officially gone. Now, onto GTE Pro and Am. Lets go Aston Martin!!

Yeah unless Audi has a serious problem, Toyota may not have much chance. I'm still expecting to see the toyota pace back through the night. That is why the are replacing everything now. It is obviously the faster p1.
