That looks like a decent timing link, thanks! Is there a sitemap for that source? It's currently not showing the ongoing Pilot Challenge race.

Trackpass muted with RLM is my default. Getting the two synced isn't that difficult and you can usually get it within milliseconds by the first round of pit stops. Onboards and air guns are great markers.

Pilot Challenge race has been decent so far. Not the greatest ever, but entertaining enough for a Friday afternoon at work. The Toyota is incredibly quiet/dull sounding.

Tried that. TP is 50-odd seconds behind IMSA timing/RLM.

I usually don't listen to IMSA Radio live unless its a safety car period. I like to save their commentary for the youtube replay.

Well that Pilot race was very enjoyable wasn't it?

WyldStallion · 30 Jan 2021, 00:56 (Ref:4031955)

Could we get a 3rd straight year of DPI, GTLM, and GTD winner being Cadillac, BMW, and Lamborghini respectively?

Caddy has won every Daytona 24 in the DPI era going back to 2017. I think it would be cool if they end up winning all of them. DPI ends in 2022.

Apparently Gradiant Racing team...the #22 Acura from IMSA Sprint Cup last year, is running the SunEnergy1 #75 Mercedes.

Just took a tour of the entry list and this is one of the strongest driver lineups I've seen at this race in some time! So many from a variety of other racing categories. And at nearly 50 entries, I'm really looking forward to this one!

And looking at weather.com, they have it down as a 1 to 7 % chance of precip this evening through the end of the race...WTF does that mean? Floridians?

- First yellow flag caused by a P3 car - drink
- It's a super long yellow relative to the actual incident - finish your drink, start another hotdog
- Lack of rain causes commentators to start calculating record distance - finish your hotdog, start another drink
- 4 hour green flag run - take a nap
- Any lull in the race filled by discussing how there's so many drivers from other disciplines - take a shot of whatever national drink dictated by the nationality of your favorite special appearance driver's
- Overnight fog red flag - sleep
- Sun rises on Daytona - breakfast hotdog with eggs (skip breakfast if it's cloudy)
- 24 1 hour sprints and just needing to make it to the last hour mentioned - take a drink for every remaining hour of the race (This may also be a finish your drink if it happens early enough in the race)

Bring on the racing!

Yessir! And thanks for starting the thread! I'll have a go with the hotdog / drinking but likely replacing hotdogs with a steak at some point and i did just have some cheesy, ham eggs this morning and it's cloudy here so I'm ahead of the game or cheating!!

I wonder if the viewing habits of anyone will change because of the late 3:40 pm start? It will for me. Watch the race until it gets dark at the start of the 3rd hour and take a long nap. The overnight hours will still be the 'early" part of the race. Sunrise will still be the early part of the 2nd half of the race.

It is amazing how many 'stars' there are, and how they are distributed through the different classes. Great publicity-wise for the race.

Enjoy the race all.

I would love to see Risi take the GTLM class.

Ferrari333SP · 30 Jan 2021, 18:57 (Ref:4032115)

Really looking forward to this one; hoping for an all-out fight, especially with very little chance of bad weather

GriffM3 · 30 Jan 2021, 19:02 (Ref:4032116)

Any live in car Camera during the race this year?

**bjohnsonsmith** · 30 Jan 2021, 19:05 (Ref:4032117)

I missed last year's race so looking forward to this year's.

Canada ALMS fan · 30 Jan 2021, 19:13 (Ref:4032119)

Anyone have a stream? We get TV coverage in Canada but looking for something commercial free

The IMSA feed is geo-blocked for us.

justracing · 30 Jan 2021, 19:23 (Ref:4032121)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gj6kcx4S0_o Any good?

In years past I have used a vpn to access the international feed. Is trackpass available up there? They stay on the action with no commentary during commercial breaks.

Typically imsa.tv has a few onboards with no geo-restrictions.

Nothing is listed as of yet. I will be ****ed if their is no in car live feeds.

JoeW04 · 30 Jan 2021, 19:51 (Ref:4032130)

Forecast looks good throughout and only dropping to 14c overnight, perfect for racing

**Adam43** · 30 Jan 2021, 20:03 (Ref:4032131)

Getting ready for the 24. Although we are already watching some live racing.

Canada ALMS fan · 30 Jan 2021, 20:13 (Ref:4032133)

Found a few on Reddit Motorsport Streams thanks. That YouTube link will get taken down pretty quick, the name it too obvious.
No Trackpass in Canada.

Ferrari333SP · 30 Jan 2021, 20:15 (Ref:4032135)

If anyone needs a good VPN recommendation, I use NordVPN. Easy to use, and internet speeds are still fast, nobody where you place your connection

fieldodreams79 · 30 Jan 2021, 20:40 (Ref:4032138)

Troubles for 55 Mazda already....

**Adam43** · 30 Jan 2021, 20:41 (Ref:4032139)

Pinewood Derby finals just starting!

RWill2073 · 30 Jan 2021, 20:43 (Ref:4032140)

Half the gtlm field hit each other already....

Mazda doing mazda things...

All seems about right

RWill2073 · 30 Jan 2021, 20:45 (Ref:4032141)

Good thing mazda went down to 1 car this year! Wouldn't want any chance of a sebring like result from last year to happen again, would we?!?!
