Thank you so much

[@thomasroth84]

Please never leave KZbin again! It's so convenient for us Europeans to catch it the next morning instead of having to wait for a week or so like it was in the past! Thank you!!!!

[@lordracer7743]

i hadnt any problems to wait until the thursday after the race.

[@brmh1667]

To be honest, as long as IMSA is generous enough to let us see it I am also happy. The shorter wait is most welcome though, and gives IMSA the chance to compete with more topical events. Shame about that classic, Lime Rock Park. I would love to see that come back. Don't make it too easy for the golf course pushers. please. Lime Rock is a mini-Nurburgring.

[@rolux4853]

@@brmh1667lime rock park is one of my absolute favorite race tracks on this planet! People finally have to stand up against those fascist old bullies who want to destroy this amazing tracks! It’s already insane they aren’t allowed to race on Sundays! The USA is such an unfree country, where citizens have very few rights and the government has more laws and rules against them than any other first world country has! Nowhere in Europe some racist old people who moved there AFTER the track was build could forbid anything! That’s why you still have all the amazing tracks in Europe, because there citizens have real rights and freedom! In the USA it only counts how much money you have, the courts only care about the highest bidder, not the righteous solution. Look at what is happening to Laguna Seca, they are destroying it too! Or the best track the USA ever had, Riverside International Raceway! Some disgusting rich land developers bribed local politicians and built a stupid soulless mall on the racetrack! Never ever would this happen to a track in Europe! Fight back for your rights, the USA needs a complete overhaul of its courts, the police and the whole political system. The USA is NOT a democracy in its current state! It’s an oligarchy run by huge corporations and individual billionaires. Even on the local level the vast majority of politicians are rich people forming their communities in a way that it perfectly caters to only the rich. Us people that earn some decent money, but still have to work for it are seen as scum. The only reason those people want to interact with us is to manipulate us to shill for them and vote them. The USA is a failed state!

[@Armalite90]

It's not convenient for just the Europeans, it's convenient for us Americans as well I love being able to catch the lives or the highlights. I have said it before, yalls coverage has made me a fan a big one at that. Thank you

Finally got around to watching this. Long Beach never fails to deliver chaotic fun.

[@ragereset2795]

IMSA, showing WEC how it's done. Just got off a plane in Doha, got time to quickly download this and watch it on my flight to Italy. Perfect.👌🏼

[@rolux4853]

What? You know that every WEC race is streamed on KZbin since many years ago? This is only the second IMSA race streamed on KZbin however. Before that you needed to watch it on the IMSA TV website.

[@SOMEONE-r7m]

Wec clearly better

[@kitethebird9764]

They dont stream it anymore on youtube they release the race like 1-2 weeks later or so on youtube like IMSA has done it ​@@rolux4853

[@fafonso558]

@@rolux4853the difference is that wec doesnt stream basically worldwide unlike imsa , where I live I have to watch wec through Eurosport where we have 20 mins of ads every 20 mins of race

​@rolux4853 WEC streams the races a few weeks after the race. IMSA on the other hand is LIVE. At least IMSA TV was free. Unlike WEC...

Could this endurance motor racing series get any better? Back on KZbin, with the same wonderful commentary pairing and all the manufacturers as competitive as ever! Another treat from Long Beach after last year's dramatic finish.

[@recarsion]

Great race and getting it right away for free, this is why I love IMSA! I wish the WEC had some of these shorter races as well, watching several hours of endurance racing isn't always easy.

It's always good to hear Hindy, Shaw and Adam voices, but please make sure to raise the ambient sound volume next time, cars are barely audible.

[@voggiful]

as always thanks for coverage! fantastic race fantastic series fantastic cars!

[@johnlawrence3170]

The reason the audio mix has such minimal ambient sound is because this is the audio that is also played over the loudspeakers / PA at the race track, and the last thing you need is vehicle engine sounds blasting over the PA while actual engines are blasting around the racetrack. It would be nice if they could have a separate videostream mix with some ambient sounds though.

[@KRobertsonGaming]

Great to see the Flying lizards back, shame it wasnt in a silver and red Porsche but i do hope they will stay i miss seeing this team. They were my Favorite team in the ALMS. Also Thanks IMSA you beauty ❤

You don't have to pick just one. F1, WEC, WRC, driftmasters in Europe. IMSA, Indycar, American Rally Association Championship, Formula Drift and Nascar(some people don't realize that half of the schedule is road and street courses) in the states. Super GT, Super Formula, All Japan Rally Championship, and Formula Drift Japan in Japan. And that's just for cars! There's all the baja truck series and moto & dirt and everything else. It's a great time to be alive!

[@Finney198]

Thank you! Some parts of the race was like a public lobby for ACC. So you know you not going to do good in the race, your team mate is behind the leaders, a yellow flag would help out, so what do you do? 😁

[@Dethmeister]

You talking about the #25 BMW? That's what I was thinking too. It looked like he buried it softly in the tires on purpose. Though, Shea Adam said that it was trying to back out of the barrier but wasn't able to.

[@jort_2903]

Why no podium ceremony

[@rebelduck9077]

Finally posted!! YES!!!

[@sascha151]

the comments is so loud ,the cars so calm...please change this..terrible soundmix

[@SCAJolly]

I feel as though IMSA's incident calls have been worse in '24 than before. Certainly I don't understand how the GT was to blame in the hairpin. What would any driver have done differently, surrounded by prototypes?

[@Dethmeister]

1:26:17 He should have stayed in his lane on the outside, behind the prototype he was following. Look at the angle he enters the corner at. It looks like he's trying to block one prototype Porsche while also dive-bombing the other Porsche prototype in front, which makes no sense. Besides that, he didn't brake soon enough so he hit the one he was dive-bombing. Then he just stops in the middle of the track, though he might have stalled. Now one thing that may explain it is that GTD cars seem to enter that corner differently than the prototypes. Maybe the GTD's just can't take that same outside line, swinging out wide like the prototypes do. I don't think that's the case though.
