Thanks. I remembered Fanschoice.tv right as race 1 ended.

Great battle in Race 2 today between Lazare and Skeer. Another example of being able to go at it hammer and tongs while still racing clean. Lazare took the win in the end for a clean sweep of the weekend. Nice job by Kasey Kuhlman to recover from Race 1 for a podium finish.

Also great to Porsche stepping up and recommitting to IMSA for another two years of GT3 Challenge Cup.

Gawddammit Imsa's website is garbage! And the app kept crashing. Never did see the feed go live on the imsa site but fanschoice.tv worked great.

The IMSA website has been total dog**** since they merged with Grand Am. You'd think it would have improved by now...

Seriously. There are now a few unlabeled tiny little buttons to click on on the left that get you the information you are looking for. WTF. It took me about 15 minutes before I even noticed those little buttons were there.

Especially, when Fox Sport is only going to air 2 hours out of the 12 for Sebring. But from 12:30 to 7 it's everything NACRAP and then 3 hours of Motocross.

What's up with the Aston Martin lean in turns. Roll center must be way high on that thing.

Tough break for the factory RSRs in GTLM after leading most of the race. Thankfully Falken were there again to carry the torch.

Farnbacher kept it entertaining in GTD.

Those guys have to be gutted after running so well and stuff breaking in the last hour.

Mario drove his a$$ off! And then it all went wrong! And then it all went right! Fun end for the GTD class.

TRG has campaigned and won many races over the years running softer springs/settings than conventional wisdom dictates. This being Sebring, they were obviously trying to keep the tires on the pavement and apparently with some success. I know they ran stiffer settings than usual (for them) at COTA winning the WSC-GTS class a few weekends back, so they're flexible enough to adapt for the track and conditions. The other Aston in the race (#98 GTLM) car looked much stiffer thru the turns and they ended up finishing next to each other....

FWIW, James Davison drove 4 of the last 5 hours in TRG's Aston including the final 104 laps for 2 hrs. 45 minutes. I don't know how he could still even focus much less try and chase down Farnbacher in the Porsche. He got close, within .8 at the line.....
