looking at the in-car of the #1 coming in to the pits and the steering wheel looks like a rectangle.

I guess next year Porsche will race a single car. That should do it.

I've been thinking the same thing. Seems there are a few here for this race that don't seem to actually enjoy it.

On that note, I just wanted to say, I've posted on other forums, but this one is different. On most, it's mostly snarkiness and trolling and trying to act superior to others or some other nonsense. But this one is different. Everyone's opinions are taken in and everyone is (mostly) respectful and friendly. Much more so than other forums. It really is a nice change. I guess I'm saying, thanks guys for making this an enjoyable forum, above the others I've come across.

I'm about done till morning. Now my dilemma: do I wake up and start with the fs1 coverage starting at 1 and not finish the race till tomorrow night? Or pick up live when I wake up in the morning? I don't think the US open is behind this year, as last year I tried the former strategy only to have the last hour preempted for golf..... That's right, I avoided the end for days to finish my recording only to miss the last hour and of course the dramatic ending..... Decisions, decisions....

I'm hoping both Porsche and Toyota will get out and leave a free for all amongst the prototypes. But I hope Porsche will retain running GT factory programs in both WEC and IMSA. I'm sure that would be the case.

I've been trying to figure out what's going on on GTEPro. Seems everyone of the leaders has done the brake change except the 63 Corvette and 91 Porsche. Correct me if I am wrong.

I'm already looking at a certain bottle of wine anticipating another fair win from Porsche. I would like to add that I truly respect the Toyota team and all the emotions that they brought to Le Mans.

Okay, you probably heard correct on that. That leaves the 91 Porsche in question. I didn't see them get it done from the onboard, but this is pushing 15 hours so they must have been in already.

I got the Radio Le Mans video up. Seeing some of these guys faces for the first time. Paul Truswell is the ultimate geek I think. I did not know Sam Collins was young and black. I did not expect Johnny Palmer to look like what he does either.

RadioLeMans doing very well so far. They are having a good race. Also on the streaming front its great Ford has their channel going. I don't think they are quite as good as last year though. Sort of like the on track performance too.
