Shifty Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 I have to get excited about practice that I can't watch, since the racing sucks. At teh end of practice 1, teh 3 car ran fastest at 1:45.613, then Falken, teh 56 Bimmer and then teh 4 car at 1:45.861. It would be fine if this would translate to race day...

MOTV8 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I like how Milner went from p10 to p4 on his last lap. 2nd session just underway with CR in p3 and p5 so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shifty Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 I'd like to see IMSA enforce teh "sandbag penalty" that they threatened in teh beginning of teh year...if it was teh Corvettes, they'd do it in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOTV8 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 IMSA won't "interfere" by dropping a sandbagging penalty when they've already planned one more BoP before COTA. But that's not interfering.

Garcia pits from P2, has a wonderful stop....goes out P7, but everybody else has to go in too. Still P7 after everybody's stop (even if it was short, it wasn't a whole lap shorter)....something is rotten in Virginia... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOTV8 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Garcia keeps teh points lead....by 6. That was ugly. Congrats to falken Wolf tho! He gave em hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shifty Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 If CR doesn't get a BoP in their favor, COTA will be teh last TUSCC race I watch. It's incredibly obvious that IMSA really wants Viper and/or Porsche to win to keep them from leaving teh series...neither of them drew penalties for teh 912 wrecking teh 4 Corvette, or teh Viper for wrecking that GTD Audi, but teh 4 car draws a stop-and-hold for getting hit?

Still P7 after everybody's stop (even if it was short, it wasn't a whole lap shorter)....something is rotten in Virginia... I paid attention... Bomburrito and Garcia both pitted from P1 and P2 position, both take on 4 tires and fuel.exit at P6 and 7 I think... a few laps later the other clown shoe appears in between them ..., no details on his pit.... Then the 2 M-Powaa cars and the Ferwawee pit for 7 seconds of fuel only... I would like to have seen Wolf hold off the frenchies. If it werent for Patsie being 1 lap down, the CR team would have successfully won the last place losers award Fuck teh BoP ....!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still P7 after everybody's stop (even if it was short, it wasn't a whole lap shorter)....something is rotten in Virginia... Neither the leading #91 Viper nor the #3 Vette pitted when the yellow flag came out with a little over an hour remaining. Stupid fuel management was the reason for the #3, Corvette team claiming that they couldn't take enough fuel to finish the race anyway. For the #91, Bill Riley was just too slow/late calling Goosens in when the pits opened, so they left him out. ...neither of them drew penalties for teh 912 wrecking teh 4 Corvette, or teh Viper for wrecking that GTD Audi, but teh 4 car draws a stop-and-hold for getting hit? The #93 did get a drive through penalty for bumping the #35 Audi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
