The Ford is insane. I can't wait to see it in action. We are entering a whole new era of GT style prototypes just like we had in the late 90s. There will be new regs next year that will force both Porsche and Corvette to build mid engine cars in order to be competitive.

I just noticed the numbers... obviously picked to commemorate the '66 and '67 Le Mans victories. :D

What about the Gulf-liveried car from '68 & '69?! :)

Couple pics Byron took of me and the corral security guy clowning around back in '04. I don't have the Tangerine car any more. It was very special and I should have kept it. '73 911T 2.4 Italian delivery with original twin triple barrel Zeniths. Almost 100% original.

FOX Sports live games and streaming video | FOX Sports Go

This is supposed to be streaming live the whole race, but it's not connecting for me, even though I'm logged in through TWC. Anybody having more luck?

There are 4 in-car boxes you can click on that were supposed to begin coverage at 2:00. They all say "On Now." But they're not on.

The 5th box, which is supposed to be race coverage and showed it was to be a 2:05 start, is now showing a message saying it will begin coverage at 2:15.

Rolex 24 At Daytona | International Motor Sports Association

Here now... not broadcasting yet, just listening to IMSA radio (about halfway down the page).

Site's showing that video will begin at 2:40.

:(

Nothing is working except IMSA radio and T&S: http://scoring.imsa.com/

It's on Fox Sports 1 for the next few hours.

Baz 01-30-2016 12:32 PM

Looks like another NASCAR race to me.

No offense.

The cool factor of this event left when Porsche stopped competing at the top tier.
