I used to have 2 monitors for things like this but PS slowed down my PC so much, having a laptop is so much better now

Dusk and dawn are great times to watch, cars look so good.

Andreas Knöpke · Jan 27, 2018

The IMSA.tv stream is not available in Spain and Andorra all of a sudden. I suspect it's because of Alonso competing and a TV station having picked up the tele rights here. Not a big deal for me really as I got a VPN running. However, it's just so silly if you think about it given that literally nobody in Spain speaks English anyways

This is wrote I wrote on Facebook earlier.
I actually missed the green flag flying cuz I didn't read the messages displayed on the stream's page early enough. Now I'm fine, got a VPN running but still ridiculous....

Just another reason to dislike that sh*tty F1 driver and his dirty azz home country

If there is one thing I like about going into the night when watching a race is seeing the awesome glow of these brake discs, I never get bored of seeing them glowing bright red

davewilliams000 · Jan 27, 2018

Enjoying it so far. Really got into endurance racing the last year, and this is my first IMSA race. I did arrive by what I'm calling the 'Alonso hype train'

but am liking it and will try and catch as many of the other races as possible.

Was working on this earlier today...

pretty much done, just a few missing logos

Which mod is that?

Andreas Knöpke · Jan 27, 2018

That crappy pay mod from that creepy ripper page

I think it's like €12 or so.
I laughed my ass off when I saw it couple months ago

It's the 'WEC 2017 LMP2' mod at assettomods site. The model is not the best, but it drives ok. The sounds are terrible I swapped in the ones from the URD PX2

Still I wanted to do this skin, so bought the mod, even though I already knew it wasn't the best.

speedyx56 · Jan 27, 2018

The imsa.tv streams this weekend have hit 2017 fiawec.com's streams level of bad. Downright amateurish. At least this one is free I guess...
