My whole Discord VC was going ballistic. Once how I saw how better he got through the bus stop be than the 04 I just knew it was going to be close, and I was right. What a finish and what a race.

“Here he comes he got this time”
“It’s gonna be a drag race”
“Wow”

It’s unreal to think they raced for an entire day only for it to come down to a mere quarter of a car length

I listened to this battle and finish live on the IMSA radio and it was absolutely amazing and incredible.

They didn’t even acknowledge this battle on imsa radio. In fact, they were in the middle of an interview during the entire thing, including during the photo finish.

This is only the third year I’ve watched the Rolex 24 and the second I’ve seen the finish live. Given how long and tough these races can be, I never thought I would be fortunate enough to actually see an event like this live.

This was the first Rolex 24 I watched. Safe to say I’m watching it again in 2024!

This is why you never give up, I thought it was over after he got in the grass, but he managed to get the Rolex watch

The racing in IMSA has truly become top-notch and the class of road racing imo. It’s far more exciting to watch than other mainstream series such as, F1, WEC, etc…. What a race from all classes (except lmp3 XD)!!

IMSA is no different to WEC so what are you talking about?

@B.A.L G.B.R The yellow flag rules are a bit different, and I still think there is way better racing in IMSA

Reply
Jaqeme Morrison January 29, 2023 at 10:40 pm

@I’m Kairyu I like the yellow flag rules, I feel like if they didn’t have it the race would be ALOT more boring. Pretty sure the only reason almost all the top 3 in each class were with in 10secs of each other by the end was because yellow flag = safety car (except LMP3 where second was 11 laps down).

Peter January 30, 2023 at 12:22 am

@Jaqeme Morrison Felt like there were 10 FCYs (full course yellows) in the last 3 hours. Definitely helped Acura make up their laps to catch back up to Cadillac but I’m not mad about it. The last hour is when all the chaos starts.

Reply
Jaqeme Morrison January 30, 2023 at 1:59 am

@Peter Yea i felt the same too. I fell asleep when it was the #60 Acura and the #6 and #7 Porsche upfront one cadicallac a lap down and the other barely hanging on in hte back. I woke up to a cadillac 1,2 the acura a lap down with the #6 Porsche occasionally in the picture and the #7 in the pits. When and how the #60 got the lap back and to the front is a mystery to me but I know I enjoyed it.

Back to back years great finishes. Last years GTDP battle with the 2 Porsches was phenomenal, now this! I love the rolex 24!!!

Makes me wonder what the total pit stop times were for each car, amazing to have a photo finish after so many hours racing.

I set my alarm for 2.30am here to watch the final ten minutes and was not disappointed. IMSA always delivers.

I traveled to Daytona from Canada just to see it this year. Best 4 days of my life. That mid-race truck nap was a godsend
