I picked up a Logitek Revue and the picture and coverage is great. I like the extended coverage on ESPN3. It is not HD but looks great on the big screen. I have Comcast internet and I have heard that the stream is better on Comcast than other services. Looks like they are directing traffic and limiting some services. I am having intermittent success with the ALMS timing and scoring site.

Re: the Lizzards, I agree with others that Seth shouldn't be driving. I was at Daytona when he ruined the car.

I have been saying that about Neiman for a couple of years now. It's going to grow increasingly hard for ONE RSR to beat 2 Factory Corvettes, 2 Factory BMW's, 2 Factory and several great privateer 430 and 458 Ferrari teams.

Hopefully the Falken Tire car will step up and at least offer some support. Wolf Henzler has championship quality. Seth is slower than EVERY GTC class car and has not improved at all over the last couple of years. Seems like Porsche could find a team to support that would run without the owner being determined to drive.

Has to be frustrating for Darren Law. There have been so many races where the 44 car would have been on the podium it's not funny. At least the Robertsons don't have a competitive car to begin with. And I think both of them are faster than Seth.

On a side note, why does the #45 car have 6 pit stops already compared to most all of the other cars in class 4 or 5.

This stupid TV/Internet lineup is retarded. Is there a petition somewhere I could sign that would be sent to AMLS telling them it sucks.

The #45 was issued a penalty.

Pat Long had that incident with the 04 Corvette. He came in for tires. Then he suffered a drive through penalty for the incident.

Wow, 207s in supercup! That was what the GT3RSRs were doing a few years ago!

How come McNish and Rockenfeller are down 6 laps to Peugeots?

Capello in the Audi got clipped pretty bad.

Saw the spin with Van Overbeek going into the wall.

I was going to return the Logitech Review this weekend but its ability to show the race today means it's a keeper. It has showed 4 out of 5 bars using Brighthouse all day. The resolution is not HD and the screen freezes from time to time but it's a hell of a lot better than watching on a computer.

I am at the track watching live and listening to the stream on my laptop. I plan to watch the replay on my X-Box throughout the week to catch all that I missed. I will keep you up to speed on how well (or not) the re-broadcast works.

Oh well. I missed the entire thing.... Too bad.

I had too many other things to do that to watch my computer all day with it being in the 80's here.
