GTE Pro race is just amazing - 21 hits in and 2nd/3rd are separated by just a couple of feet!

Watched all day yesterday, went to bed at 11 last night and back up at 4 this morning (all for pregnant dog/puppy duties..... Great to have on the background.

Going to miss it tomorrow 🙄

The Rothmans Porsche was being a bit naughty with the GT40.

I just saw how quickly they changed a rear disc on a Porsche 😮.....might need to question my local garages quote of a few hours labour on the wife's motor, cowboys. 😁

How do they do it?

They drive the car flat chat for 24hrs, without letting off unless in safety zones of yellows..

Those GT Porkers are just amazing 💪

A chap I now has bought an LMP1 rolling chassis and he said the first time he tried to take the gearbox off it took 8 minutes - but he can do it quicker now!

A well deserved win. He drove the socks off that Toyota this morning.

Interesting hearing that McLaren being there in 2020 is very nearly a done deal

So only two more years of the LMP cars.... 😒

Shame because they look so cool.

Sad innit.

But they are trying to make it a more level playing field ... sadly all I see at the moment are 2 LMP1 cars and a fleet of prototypes playing their own game.

GTE Pro and AM were great to watch, I do wonder what they do with the cars after the event.. sold as s/h three owners 🤪🤣🤙

Bugger, we're down to our last bottle of wine 😥

Luckily we have emergency beer 😁

Has been a fine few days.
