I thought that switching from the 24 to a gameshow at a gas station was a new low for Speed even if the contestant was kinda cute but one guy on the roof with a camera did a better job then their entire production staff. Maybe they shouldn't even bother with TV, just get a cameraman, a couple of Brits and a Scotsman and you are good to go.

He was just bitching a bit on camera. I think both of them were seeing the red mist.

Either way, this is going to be an intense final 2 hours!

looks like they pulled a 'NASCAR' yellow after the bumping.. 'you see debris? yeah, i see some. ok cool them off...'

Do you think they could at least show the $%#@ GT class once a segment?? Lally and Keen are trading leads out there....

It's great to see this level of compitition between the prototype cars. Sort of reminds me of the last couple years at Laguna Seca with the Lizzards fighting it out against BMW, Farrari and the Vettes.

A battle for the lead in GT, and Speed is showing commercials. Nice...

The ticker just showed that 68 Carlos Gomez is out. Did anyone see what happened to his car? He seems to have been driving since late morning.

Too bad re Scott Pruett's car... Penalty too. He is fun to watch race.
