    Very nice!

    If I don't get drafted into the F Troop tonight I'll try that angle tomorrow morning :)

    Right now I'm headed over to turn 4 & 5 for qualifying.

    I was able to talk to the Turner girl this morning and got her number to set up a photo shoot. I forgot to bring my phone charger and my battery is about to go dead so hopefully this post goes through.

    Her ph number is 407 - 74

    Truely a joke chasing 3 channels to see one event, not going to waste the time.

    I assumed it was 867-5309?

    Watched the last 1.5hr's of coverage this morning and man I love Sebring. I want to attend next years race and make a week of it. Fishing and then racing would be a slice.

    Watching it live on IMSA! I do think it sucks that Fox starts the race and then leaves it to show Nascar qualifying. What the hell! Qualifying over a historic race? And to not come back to it later to show the finish because UCF (which is on every night) is better for them. Until someone learns how to package and then show an endurance race we are going to be doomed to this fate. Thank god for the internet and streaming.

    Do I have completely different channel lineups than you guys? I had the first two hours on Fox Sports 1, recording from 12:30 to 7:00 0m on Fox Sports 2 (both HD channels, BTW), and back to FS1 at 10:00 for the final 45 minutes.

    Yes, I hate that 7:00 till 10:00 is only on IMSA.com, but 9 of the 12 hours live in HD is pretty good considering some of the coverage we've had in recent years.

    Yes that's the correct channel line up. UFC fights on Fox Sports 1 tonight, I assume that's why its on IMSA from 7-10.

    I have been streaming it on the IMSA website. They are showing the entire race to the end there. Been watching since Fox sports dropped off.

    Watched the first 2 hours on fox1 and then the last 3. Decent results for Ferrari . One huge pissed off question. When are any American car racing producers gonna realize
    1 nobody gives a damn about the combined overall. They can show it once in a while, but it was on the screen about 59% of the time, and
    2. I'm a pretty big fan of endurance racing, but to just have drivers names and not the car they're driving is infuriating. All the Blancpain and other endurance races from Europe have a scoring board system that is so much better. 4 different colors for 4 different classes, drivers name and a small car logo.(very recognizeable even when quick), car number, and seconds behind leader in class. God it awful to try and follow in the US.

    While I have never seen overseas coverage of a race I do agree that our current coverage format sucks. Even the streaming process sucks. Now that nascar is involved it will only get worse. That said, what a last 30min of the race! Who would have thought.

    We ended up watching from 3,4,5 on Friday and had a spot by 10 and could see the exit of 10, 11, and the entry of 12 on Saturday. We had a good time but man it was hot. Everyone was friendly, even the drunks.

    I didn't think FS2 was HD anywhere. What provider do you have? For us only FS1 is in HD, FS2 is SD.
