Doc Morbid posted:I wish all racing series did this kind of thing. Obviously that's a total pipe dream and never gonna happen due to licensing and TV contract money and all that stuff, but I certainly would watch a hell of a lot more racing if I didn't have to hunt for lovely low-quality streams on dodgy websites or buy horribly overpriced pay-TV packages. Maybe we'll get there sometime around the year 2084... Seems as if all of the official webstreams of races have been sponsored by manufacturers. Nissan is doing the 12h now. Audi usually does the Nurburgring 24h. Doesn't Mazda and Corvette do streaming too? It might actually be more of an incentive to manufacturers to kick in for official HD livestreams, either with one of them being the full sponsor or several of them kicking in to fund it.. Makes it way easier for those loyal to the brands to follow the race, and for race fans to get more exposed to the brands that are racing. People will probably be much more likely to watch a whole race (like us) if they could easily/legally access it over the Internet. Car makers would definitely want to see that, even if the TV networks would balk at it.

ColonelJohnMatrix posted:Also, I saw this video on YellowBullet earlier today and it's great. It's one of the best nitro warmup videos I've seen as you can clearly see and hear when they switch from alcohol to nitro. Seeing it with this framing in the video really makes you realize that a car like this is literally just an engine with wheels attached to it.

Sheer luck that the car didn't roll over in a way that would have decapitated him or landed on someone in the pedestrian tunnel he fell into. 20 or 30 years from now we're going to look back at the open wheel cars of today and wonder why the heck it took so long to enclose the cockpits.

All the things happened at the end of the IMSA race. A brake failure at turn 1 and a big boom into the tires, a GT Corvette spinning himself out of second place, a Porsche punting the leading Corvette at the hairpin to take them both out, the Delta Wing catching fire, a great P battle at the front all race long, and a last-lap random spin and crash for good measure. gently caress that Porsche, man.

If you didn't see it in the IndyCar thread, a track worker got hit by a car in a domino effect yesterday during the Pro/Celebrity race. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHch51jujFk&t=86s The race was pretty amazing outside of this bit of shitshowiness.

At first I got onto a Fox stream since it synced up closest with the Radio Le Mans feed. Then I realized that commercials ruin the endurance racing experience. I ultimately paid for the WEC stream, though I lament not being able to stay awake during the final hours for the finish. One of these years we need to get a goon meet together, somewhere, and just power through the whole 24 together.

drgitlin posted:Hello from Pikes Peak! I am at this year's Hillclimb, covering it for Ars Technica and wanted to see if anyone has any questions they want me to ask or cars/teams/drivers they'd like me to talk to etc while I'm here? Please find some crotchety old-timers who thinking paving the whole road up to the peak has ruined the hill climb and get their expert opinions. But seriously, ask around and see if newer participants would have done the climb if it was still dirt, or how they think they'd be doing on dirt. (I'm bitter about them getting rid of the dirt, okay?)
