I thoroughly enjoyed the race. Longest commentary stint I have ever done (beating just short of 11 hours through the night at Spa 24 Hours a few years ago). Only left the seat once - and missed the long Absolute Audi pit stop! Typical.
It was a blended commentary line up with production by Pit FM, Takashi was doing pit reporting for the first time and I think did a good job after an equipment issue right at the start (which is why it sounded like a phone call!). It is only the second year of the race and it is still finding its feet. We are already hoping to bring the full Lets Go Racing team to the race next year, which should make things a touch smoother. I'm hoping to see LGT and PFM start working together more on stuff which could see us being able to bring more Japanese Racing to you on Youtube as well. I think there will be an even bigger grid as Toyota will probably turn up next time. Also more GT300 runners. I will admit that I'm annoyed at myself for getting a couple of drivers first names wrong during the race (Gounon and Vanthoor) - I hope Juntos can forgive me for that! To answer the inevitable Super GT 2020 question - I hope so, working on it. |

I’m quite happy to disagree with Juntos (not for the first time) and congratulate Sam on some great comms during the race.
It was nice to have some slightly different people next to Sam too, the same old commentators for every weekend can get repetitive. You have to try different guests like Ronnie etc, to spice it up. |
