Midweek Motorsport? Anyway, sounds like a better race for the series, haven't seen any of it - how long left/worth tuning in? |

The PC/GTD race wasnt bad. It turned into a fuel mileage race which played itself out in the last 5 minutes. The P/GTLM race has an hour 22 minutes left. Its pretty good racing so far. Yacaman was ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL over the DP car the first 10-15 minutes. Like trying inside outside every turn until he went off, and its calmed down, but it should be good stuff going forward. |

That's what I expect from a TUDOR race. Very well done all around. I didn't like the idea of splitting the field into two races but it worked out REALLY well. Mazda has made MILES of improvement on your diesel P2s P2/DP BOP is very close GTLM remains awesome, the #3 Corvette is on an awesome run AWESOME showing by the Risi team I guess the lesson from Laguna is you can't sacrifice tires for position; you need the grip at the end. |

I disagree toad. The 42 started it by getting blocked huge by the 90. The 42 had to take evasive action onto the dirt t-boning the 5, and then the 5 hit the 07 due to them being 2 wide. Just a bad stack up and block in the cork screw. I think the correct penalties were assessed. |

Okay I'm watching the PC/GTD Laguna race now and I have to say I really like the idea of splitting the classes into two races now. It's nice to see the PC/GTD class getting more screen time, Makes you appreciated those classes that we normally don't see much of on tv. Also listening to just the PC class taking the green sounded epic, Must of been awesome to actually of been there in person! |

What I liked about it is that PC usually gets tossed in the back of everyones' mind like "oh yea, those guys" - but theres usually great racing in the class. By splitting the race it gives you time to actually watch and give attention to those classes. It's also awesome to have a couple hours break in between races. Also, the BOP is GTD has been very well done. Daytona needs some work, obviously. Edited by silenzze, May 6 2014, 03:50:16 AM.
