first

stream needs more chatting

Alphonse here. Thanks for posting the updated version I made for me.

alina nissan just totaled gg

im using ustream through my tv the link checking is on you guys

Update times.

just got off work.
Good race so far?

They're dropping like flies!

OH SHIT CAR ON FIRE

They dropped him in a pile of dirt and he could have driven to the pit.

Did the lift drivers just fuck their race?

no he crashed there

Right but the engine was still running and he probably could have moved if he had traction.


I'm not a all familiar with the rules tho...

Did they just pick him up and drop him directly opposite the barrier?

id like to take a moment of silence for this anons screen grab skills

Wtf is happening??? They just won't stop crashing

Second place lmp2 car crashed


number 30 porsche crashed too

Listening to the Ford GT is the most uninspiring bit of noise I've ever heard.

spotted the gm fangirl

I'm actually rooting for the GT, but the ecoboost is insulting.

>insulting
How? It's faster than the corvette. Are you brain dead or something?

I dig it since it's them beating ferrari at their own game again. Or trying to
question is, are any 488s running? I haven't been following very long

Fuck made myself to comfy and slept for 4,5h. So what happened in those 4,5h ? I only had some few blinks on the screen

see
I'll update it again in an hour or so.

>I haven't been following very long

90% of the people in this thread don't follow motorsports.

I'm not brain dead, but it's not a sound that fits the historical event thats taking place right now.
And one 488 is ahead by a 2 second gap last time I checked. The other 488s are behind

...

That's the sound of GM losing. Deal with it, cuck.

oh caught a glimpse of the vents, so yeah a bunch of 488's.
That one 488 flashing down the GT under safety car was pretty awesome

kek, one mistake and Ferrari loses.

>yfw the ferd gt wins the lay manz

Sorry, just woke up, did something happen to the #1 Porsche during the night?

Battery problems

The 488 is ahead, but the Ford GT still has the fastest lap time.

I heard water pump

gremlins.

It was in the garage for almost 3 hours.

Oh well, that's unfortunate but at least it's still running. Thanks.
Nice to see Ford performing well too.

Can someone explain how this is so close after almost 18 hours? I've never really followed motorsports outside of Australia

I wish it sounded more KLZE

They are beating GM though, so I am okay with it.

Yeah, I'm happy they're doing well. But, they said the 5.2 V8 was a considered power plant, so I'm a bit let down by that.

Who here /launchcontrolandshit/?

#68 under investigation or did I mishear that?

Can't decide whether to nap now and wake up for the finish or try to stay up for the whole distance and risk falling asleep. >_>

Yeah, something concerning it's pit stop

#eatsleepracerepeat here

Just take 1 hour nap, noob.

>the 5.2 V8 was a considered power plant

That information kinda hurts.

Just use an alarm clock like i'm about to do.
>get as much sleep as possible and wake up 30 minutes before the final finish

I've got this shit figured out
I have munchies, I have shitty drinks, and I have my dog. I got this thing all the way to the end

Drive through penalty for having engine running during refuel.

Engine on during refuel

Ferrari International Assistance strikes again

Ford BTFO. Cancelling my Focus RS order desu senpai.

>no twin turbo 4 rotor tearing the sky apart
yawn

I'm going to crash my 16 GT Mustang into a wall over this

So clearly Ford broke the rules, but that's a fucking stupid rule. F1 managed to refuel with the engine running for years without any incidents.

Who is this bitch commenting for Fox? She is saying racing things but she sounds dumb as hell.

>ferrari begging fia to ban the GT
When is the 488 going to crash already so Ford can win?

>ford has 6 hours to pass the 488
Who here thinks the 488 will crash before it can win?

knowing ford, you'll miss and hit a crowd of people.

Hopefully one is built like a brick shithouse so the car gets killed.

I wonder when Nissan is going to build something so bat shit stupid that it actually works and dominates.

After Mazda does it

This LMP1 battle has been fantastic.

lolcantturn

I actually smiled at this. Goyim Motors can fuck off.

So never?

Is the one AM Corvette just a regular Z06?

No, it would have exploded hours ago.

Same car i think its just amateur league.

Odd that they'd list it as a C7-Z06 when the others are listed as C7.R

Next year Im going to open a site with a betting pool. Place bets with Buttcoins on whos going to win and who is going to explode.

Last year was fantastic, where is the racing this year?

Really? Porsche can't go any faster?

Maybe if they win this race.
If Toyota wins, Mazda might have a reason to come back. If they do come back, they'll do something weird and amazing because they're Mazda

corvetted.com/third-corvette-at-le-mans-the-larbre-gte-am-c7-r/

Its a c7r, its listed as the z06, to my best guess, to avoid confusion between classes.

what do the blue lights on the car and on the track mean?

and do the cars flash their brights to indicate they want to pass a slower class car?

>blue lights
You are lapped and you need to let the car behind you pass, the pass is not for position.

>flashing brights
Eyes up motherfucker, I am passing your slow ass and I don't want you to crash into me.

neat, thanks bro

colored lights on the car are used to differentiate different cars of the same team. blue, green, purple etc.

oops I am tried

Blue lights on the car are to differentiate different cars

Blue lights on the side of the track are let a lapped car pass.

how did the #82 ferrari get ahead?

drive thru for the Ferd because they was speeding.

Ford left the engine on for a refuel

Updated positions.

Goddamnit the 50 year old Japanese man crashed the AM Corvette. Surprisingly little damage. Looked like real life Gran Turismo the way it bounced off with barely a scratch.

are the slow zones electronically controlled on the cars?

Odd that they dont have a system to charge the hybrid power during slow zones using all the extra power the engine could put out.

GM BTFO!!

It's been a pretty shit race for Corvettes this year.

>american drivers baffled by a right turn

both Fords chasing down Risi Competizione 488, but still just under 10 seconds behind.

What the fuck are is the FUCKING porsche team doing in this fucking race, it's like they are fucking happy fucking around in fucking 3rd place. Take the japs down YOU MOTHERFUCKERS.

FIA stream a waste of money. No onboard feed from any of the toyotas or audi #8

They have better pace, and are chasing down the car in 2nd very fast now. Gap under 2 seconds.

They have 2nd in the bag, and have a chance at 1st if something goes """""wrong"""""

>inb4 #1 Porsche blocks leading toyota for a good two or three laps

problems with KERS. ironically they chose to run last-year's system because they thought it would be more reliable.

Thanks

WHO is this fucking dumb cunt on FS1. Keep fucking women out of my fucking racing you fucking cucks, it's like you think my fucking head wants to fucking hear some fucking warbiling bitching gigling over my M/O/TORSPORTS.

Why the fuck are you not listening to radio lemans?

do you want to get cancer?

FUUUUCKKKK THERE IS A BUMP ON MY LEFT NUT. FUCK YOU FOX, YOU ARE NOT FOXY.

FERRARI BTFO!!!

FEEEERRRRRRRRRDDDDDD

And Ford!!!!

...

FERRARI BTFO!!!!!!!!!

IT'S OVER!!!! BTFO!!!

That GT looks like it drives really well.
