Which is why I'm hoping we've had no replays yet as all the drivers involved are fine.

Team radio is pretty cool tbh. Fuck motors we don't need commentary :p

Yeah, I know it's the way of the world these days but it's a shame they have to use the 3 part chicane before the back straight, would be such an awesome track if they could continue round the outside of it...

At least in this case we can see why the chicane kinda has to be there. The lack of run off, of course, but also the huge elevation change...

Yeah I don't think Grand-Am is running any kind of the right levels of downforce or speeds for blowovers to be an issue....

But thennnnnn, wasn't there a backflip at the Daytona 24hr in 2004 or 2005 or something?

I remember the Cameras completely missed it until it had already landed but the commentators reported seeing it out the window...

(But that's Daytona, with much much higher speeds)

I realise it has to be there and I realise it isn't going anywhere, but meh, it'd still be an awesome rollercoaster ride :p

The Audi just lost it by himself exiting the turn and the 2 others had nowhere to go.

Dorsey just said Kansas will be the fastest track they go to....how?

Unless they're talking from a pure average speed angle?

Not gonna lie, I'm with the starworks guy on this one. Especially after the 3rd Ginassi car at Indy flat out took out the #8.
