Lemans 2010
 
Interesting race so far. Very aggressive early-on, some people knocked out. Saw a F430 knock out a Lola Radical, which sucked.

Comp. Vette is doing great leading in GT2, a GT40 is leading GT1.

The Frenchies are really kicking ass in the 908s, though S. Bourdais is out. Which also sucks.

I wish S. Pruett was driving rather than talking about driving though. There should be more U.S. drivers in the mix.

Speed camera guy got tagged in pit lane, still down right now, but he is awake and moving a bit. A mirror got taken right off of a R15 in the incident too. Ouch.

GT
Vette
Vette

Lead GT catches fire, fills with smoke, and proceeds to pull next to a guard rail right by a fire marshall, which would have been a good move, save that the effing rail kept the driver (who has a broken leg) from opening the door. She got out the pass side, but it sure took a minute. Pretty scary.

I had a bad feeling for the race with 56 cars, and I still do. So far its tried to kill Mansfield (SP?), a journalist, and a GT driver.

Yeah, they are streaming Le mans and Canadian GP qualifying is on the Speed Channel right now. Great day for getting your fix.

Rafa 06-12-2010 05:31 PM

Thanks for the streaming link!

Sparetire 06-12-2010 05:36 PM

It is. PLus I am keeping an eye on the F1 aulifying right now, and watched the World Cup. Its just that kind of day :) I am on beer #7 or #8 I think right now, sort of pacing myself.

lordrigamus 06-12-2010 05:40 PM

I'm watching GP qualifying, streaming Le mans, shopping for shocks, surfing porno and playing with my balls.

I iz multitazkin bitchez!

Sparetire 06-12-2010 05:47 PM

A bit of porno will add some character to the somewhat dull sounding diesel P1 cars. Good call!

Shumacher qualified 11th in second round. He seems to be a bit rusty.

lordrigamus 06-12-2010 05:55 PM

The streaming on Speed.com seems to be pretty good, even on my old Toughbook.

turotufas 06-12-2010 05:55 PM

All cars today, almost! Went to the road course. Stripped my whip because it failed yesterday. Going to watch Le Mans at 6 until the fight and Gator baseball too. Gonna watch Liddell get his ass beat. Then me and my boys are doing our all night Le Mans tradition thing.

lordrigamus 06-12-2010 06:10 PM

Lewis Hamilton Takes pole in last qualifying lap and breaks Marc Webber's streak...and now...on to Le Mans.

chicksdigmiatas 06-12-2010 07:03 PM

Damn an aston moved up to 4th in GT1, but still america in the top 3.

Sparetire 06-12-2010 07:10 PM

And we own GT2 right now as well :)

I wish I could watch the fight. I missed Evans/Jackson too. I wont be missing Lesnar CArwin in July though. Now way. That's either going to be sweet or a total blow out. Not much chance of a ho-hum mediocre fight there.

Anybody know when Speed's stream is gonna start back up?

Sparetire 06-12-2010 09:02 PM

I dont know that it will, IIRC they will cover this thing to the end on the TV now. I wish it was on both, but it probably costs a ton for them to do it.
Edit:
I do know that I bought a 30 pack of Extra Gold last night. I used one can for the badd-ass stew I made, and the rest of the upper half of the box is now empty save for two cans. So I guess that means I am on beer number 12.........and now beer number 11. Go Lemans!

Edit Eidt:

My math makes no sense. I am not drinking my way to less consumption. I am on beer number 13, not 11. Stay tuned. I will update through the night.
