Blocking the IMSA stream just so that I have to pay to watch your awful coverage on Fox Sports 2. Also the claim that full race coverage is available on fox sports go with an FS1 subscription is a blatant lie. You have to have a FS2 subscription to see the race. IMSA needs to split from Fox and move to a channel such as NBCSN for their race coverage as their awesome racing gets ruined by fox’s incompetence.

At least IMSA uploads the races to their youtube channel a few days after the race but until then I am looking for another stream and longing for the days of SPEED.

I miss speed. What all the race series need to do is stream for a fee.

Found a stream. It shouldn’t be this hard to watch.

I am more than willing to pay for an add free stream like I do for WEC.

That onscreen leaderboard is useless. I have no clue what drivers are in what cars. They really should put cars on it instead of the drivers’ names.

They need to bring back the ticker system that SPEED used. Car number and driver name above additional information, usually chassis or the names of the other drivers in the car, scrolling across the top of the screen.

That move by the 912 was more than a bit ambitious.

I ran into the same issue. Just left the Ford onboard on in the background. I stil have no idea what happened to the other Vette.

It looked like he had either tapped the wall a few corners before with the left rear damaging the suspension or it just broke mid corner. Either way when he went to accelerate off the corner the suspension collapsed causing him to spin into the wall.

I didn’t even know it spun, for all I knew it pitted for gas. Thanks!

Top tip: the UnitedSportsCar Racing subreddit is probably the best place to go around the time of the race weekend. Live threads for discussion as well as streaming alternatives for those around the world.

From there I was able to find out that TheGamingCouple were streaming the feed to YouTube, as well as various ustreams doing the same thing.

Also yay Mazda!
