oh ok, never knew the system worked like that. Thought they had a sort of antenna system around the track feeding the signals into a cable-based system. So the normal cameras from around the track are relayed through the helicopters aswell?

Those poor mechanics, repairing all the cars now while the drivers take a nap None the less I'd happily volunteer for a mechanic job

sucks that there is only that static pitlane camera, would like some onboard shots or similar just to see whats going on out on the track.

sooooooooooooooooo, race was just red flagged. Most likely due to rain and fog, but no further info yet.

ehm, thanks for copying the links deggis and I posted in the 2013 Endurance thread ..

So Claudia Hürtgen does his stints now, wonder how that turns out for Team Schubert.

Aston Martin Vantage GT3 on 2nd via Top 40 Qualifying (by Pedro Lamy), now thats quite a surprise

Can't you use the international stream? Don't try it now as the stream is not running.

edit: this how some of the camping sites apparently looked like yesterday morning (yes, snow):

Nür 24h Qualifying is on at the moment. http://www.24h-rennen.de/en/live/
Radio LeMans does english commentary as usual

Race will be from Sunday to (Whit-) Monday this year. Top rows look typically GT3 heavy, must be almost 30 cars in that class, but surprisingly Schulze Motorsport, (Gran Turismo's) Yamauchi, Schulze, Schulze, Krumm is almost Top Ten atm with their Nismo GTR GT3.

Hehe, know you limits, and ignore them

Hope you make it out if bed today, and make use of you stay, if only to end up in another Gracht tonight. Greetings from a mere 250km to the East

btw, on that "poem" thingy on facebook -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtHDNPCIsts

don't ask, drunk germans

just came across this gem while getting lunch:



Opel Omega Knightrider Edition??

wtf? Was that some donut cop afraid of 'sem Aussis destroyin' ma NASCAR?

What are the rules there in Austin? Here in Germanland police can put you into a detox room only if you basically can't walk anymore. And have to release you more or less when the sun comes up (and you can walk again).

lol that's it, omg how cheesy does that transformation look today
but six year old me loved it. That spinning boat radar thingy on the roof :doh:

Judging from that X-Bow video the sound still makes every car sound like a vacuum cleaner. And no, the X-Bow is turbo, not supercharged. The sound for me was the biggest minus in GT5s curriculum. And I don't get why they couldn't assign some premium cars sound data to lets say all other standard cars with the same displacement, cylinder number and aspiration mode (= all those 2.0 i4 turbos).

Loeb testing/driving up a moun ... in the new 208 Pike Peak

Sweet car, 3.2 V6 biturbo, little lag on those turbines

edit: and the 405 T16 goes along side it ..

edit: yeah V6. Wonder why they still call it T16. No 16V in here

Yeah, beautiful german language. I could say that Kugelschreiber means only a ball pen, but its funnier that Flugzeug literally means "flying thing" or "flying stuff". Same with Fahrzeug, it means "driving stuff".

Quote from Pablo Donoso :

Initial D rocks! I have a ton of the DVDs and CD soundtracks including the 5-disc Millennium Box Set & 2 copies of Battle Stage as I'm keeping 1 brand-new. As good as Initial D is, I love Shuto Kousoku Max & Drift GTR even more! Once you see them, you'll want to race on the freeway.

watching those sped up race scenes is pretty awkward Not better than say Danger to Manifold F&F

lucky for all three of them.

btw, I somehow really like the new 911. Looks very form-follows-function.

....

next weekend the annual 24h Nürburgring runs again, and again I can't make it to the track Looking at the starter list I miss the times when 24h Specials were fighting for the win, not just GT3 cars. And less and less oddball cars make the starter list each year.

What's the difference between hungry and horny?

Where you put the cucumber

Quote from Bose321 :

You passing that ten hour class does (from what you post on here) show that it can't be hard to get that permit, or that a psychological test is not included (its in Germany).

well its simple, we don't have kids shooting each other with their parents guns every other week.
On the other hand Kinderüberraschung is sold here and our preteens somehow don't choke to death on them, since someone teached them to not eat big yellow plastic cylinders that contain toys.

cool, thx Runs on mine even tho its a x86 platform, albeit a bit laggy when many cars are onscreen.
