2020 Acura Sports Car Challenge At Mid-Ohio

[@mattfarrar5472]

I love how IMSA puts these on KZbin for us! Cheers from Aus guys. Montoya far too aggressive! He ultimately paid the price

[@tomatodamashi]

I don't know why they didn't use Cameron more...

[@Pr1marySourc3]

Wow, you are so right. Montoya was going so good, and then that spin! He could have gone at 7/10 and got a podium, as van der zande was on a meander.

[@purwantiallan5089]

The 2020 IMSA season is done. Perfect to relive this.

[@legendaryslickzz3286]

Awesome race! I really hope we can get more manufacturer's involved in these series. IMSA is definitely my favorite to watch.

[@WanderingSword]

don't the top teams like Corvette, Porsche (until Porsche pulled out) get full factory support and are considered factory teams?

[@thomaseberhard9056]

@@WanderingSword yes indeed

[@WanderingSword]

@@thomaseberhard9056 thanks for clarifying. shame that Porsche is no more. Now it's just BMW and GM in GTLM, hardly a series. I'm wondering when will BMW pull out too?

[@thomaseberhard9056]

Chau Nguyen yeah I hope they go big one more time - I miss Ford and BMW doing not as well as maybe expected :/ love the M8 GTE anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️🙏🏼

I really hope more manufacturers compete in GTLM in the future.

Too expensive

[@WanderingSword]

i'm wondering when will BMW pulls out. If so, then GTLM series may be doomed.

[@WanderingSword]

@1life To live it'd be cool. But I think in order for this to happen, cost will need to be reigned in.

[@reno9k]

Good upload, these mixed class races are always immersive

[@kelseyjames6502]

@IMSA I think it is easier to follow battles off screen if the ticker shows gap to the leader in class more often than the overall leader. Thank you so much for posting these, best racing series!!!

[@richg4051]

Jordan Taylor 2020.

[@SCAJolly]

THANK YOU IMSA May I just re-iterate that your infographics 2019 and 2020 have been excellent and way beyond the other series'! Way way better. Please keep it =) The 2019 jingle was much better though. And maybe have timings a little more often. Thank you for your work!!

[@KinuGrove]

I really like how WEC shows the speed distance and gear info. I forget the series but I have seen the throttle and break info as overlay when showing in car views.

[@SCAJolly]

@@KinuGrove Yeah no those are too gimmicky to me. They provide no entertainment and they get in the way. WEC has a graphics philosophy that seems to strain between the needs of the gamblers and the desires of the producers. Take the "8th | 33" type column. Minimum info, still claims a lot of screen estate, and I'm left thinking only people betting on specific numbers are any the wiser. If you're entirely new to racing and your first enduro is Le Mans you still haven't got every number memorized by the end of the race. (Speaking from experience). =) Different strokes and all.

[@giorx5]

Thanks a lot for the upload!

[@shipleyzimlich8032]

Corvette!!!

[@A.F.Whitepigeon]

Once again, thank you for uploading these races in full, for free, and in a timely manner. Thank you also for including the best commentary team in the business. I also appreciate that your graphics package is simple and functional, foregoing the gimmicks to which other series have fallen prey. However, I still have one gripe. Please bring back the manufacturer logos on the scrolling ribbon at the bottom of the screen. I find the class names redundant, since the classes are already communicated by the colors of the number panels. Moreover, these two features have been swapped multiple times throughout this season without any explanation, and I wish you'd just stick with the manufacturers. That said, this is just a nitpick, and the racing and coverage was, overall, outstanding as always.

[@mattcook8590]

Great racing as always, good to see the big merc up there again💪

[@michaeldeitch3642]

I was there, first ever IMSA race weekend in person!

[@raysmith7543]

Last half hour was epic!

[@guve25]

After Honda left F1, I'm going to frequent IMSA and SuperGT. Mix races is always entertaining, and the fact that they mostly use production car feels more connected.

[@tommythetreat000]

Helio's 21 year tenure with Penske is coming to an end but at least he is winning some races. Thanks IMSA!

[@cobrafan427]

That victory lane celebration might definitely be some foreshadowing of who will be in the 10 car next year

[@jimvelie5654]

Great year for Corvette

[@studio-flash]

Another Corvette 1-2.. Awesome..the mid engined C8R Corvette. How many is that now this season.... 3?

[@donholl]

Add me to the list of commenters who think we need more intervals-by-class info (ex: knowing that all 4 GTLM cars are the same X-laps down isn't useful). Thanks for the upload!

[@freedommachine4633]

I wonder how many of these cars are racing at the Spa 24H

[@freedommachine4633]

Could we see a BoP break on the Aston Martin, Audi, Lamborghini, Mercedes, Mclaren, and Porsche?

[@imsaofficial]

Feel free to visit competitors.imsa.com and from the drop-down menu under Rules & Regulations you can visit 2020 Technical Bulletins. Thanks.

[@bikerchochis50]

So, what´s going on with the GTLM´s? every time are less cars :(

[@donholl]

Porsche drivers had to withdraw, due to a Covid issue from an earlier WEC race.

[@SCAJolly]

As a Merc fan (spoiler) I don't know this feeling. Somewhere in all that confusion, 74 got ahead. That counts as a victory in my books.

[@StevePhoenix]

I love IMSA, but giving the 55 and 77 drive-throughs for momentarily going 1 and 2kph respectively over the pit limit is completely unnecessary in my opinion. A more appropriate penalty in my view would have been a time penalty at the end of the race. Drive-throughs have too much impact to be getting handed willy-nilly, especially since Montoya, who damaged GTDs with his uncharacteristically reckless traffic management was handed no penalty at all. I'm not suggesting Montoya deserved a drive-through, but if minor infractions is all it takes, he should have been penalized as well.

[@JosephStalin9252]

Steve Phoenix I agree, 5 seconds would have been plenty

[@A.F.Whitepigeon]

I don't think time penalties should be awarded at the end of the race. It's confusing that the order the cars cross the finish line isn't necessarily the order in which they score points. Just add the time to their next pit stop.

[@StevePhoenix]

@@A.F.Whitepigeon That's a great way to do it if there are any pit stops left to do. If there are no pit stops left to do, they have to add time at the end of the race.

[@A.F.Whitepigeon]

@@StevePhoenix In that scenario, I think I'd just give a drive-through. I still think changing the results after the race is over should be avoided if at all possible. Rules are rules, and if this was implemented consistently, teams would know that penalties are harsher during the last stint and wouldn't have any excuse not to be extra careful then.

[@pw_jc]

Thanks, but was there even one pass in the race?

[@andrewgillis8572]

OK Corevtte is faster even at a glance than the C-7R - but how could such a fast car have such a poor engine note? No trace of grunt anywhere in it - at least not via TV or stream
