How the REXY Porsche made HISTORY at Laguna Seca (IMSA Porsche GT3 R)

To support the channel, become a member by clicking here: / @groovedslick
AO Racing looked to claim their first GTD PRO victory in IMSA's annual trip to Laguna Seca. If they want to win in their Porsche GT3 R they will have to overcome almighty competition from the Corvette C8 GT3.R, Lexus, and Pfaff McLaren.

Got to love rexy. I hope other teams see the popularity and go for more fun liveries :)

I absolutely love these videos showing points of the race you may lose even if you watched it all from the official broadcast. Hoping you’ll manage to do one for Spa too!

[@axiom6458]

really loved your comments bout the race, since i watched the official imsa live i didn't saw a lot of the action you show us with the rexy camera ;) so cheers for sharin and addin a nice fan comment on the race :D go go Rexy!

i was there and didn't realize rexy was first til like the last 30 minutes lol. I got some great pics of him/her? Huge margin of victory iirc

tough luck for the vettes at Laguna

[@adenkyramud5005]

Heinrich is such a fast driver! A really great addition to the AO Racing team. As a german this race was perfect, two Porsche wins and a Mercedes win! (And both brands are swabian, so from my region, which makes this even better!)

Thank you for your work and enthusiasm. It was a great way to see how Rexy managed to win.

[@ArturoDrives]

I was at this race!!!! I even got to talk to Laurin Heinrich after the race at the podium and he signed a picture of the car for me. What a great race, Im personally a AO racing fan and the #77 Porsche is my favorite car on track. As a big Porsche fan, this was probably the best outcome.

[@GroovedSlick]

Thats incredible! Sounds like an amazing experience

[@zl1cruz]

I was there at this race! Some of the best racing I’ve seen!

Amazing content as always. Wasnt able to watch IMSA this weekend since I was at Spa. This is a nice sumarry. I reckon you can get 2 very nice videos out of it. Especially with Andlauers 4 overtakes in Eau Rouge and the never ending LMGT3 battles. Also the ferraris battling from P11 and P19 to P1 and P2 just before the red flag.

took a few passenger laps the following weekend in a 488 gt modificata and it was absolutely nuts. young driver for ferrari of Houston was absolutely sending it, and i nearly puked hahaha. the g-forces in the 488 were pushing my gut into my throat! 599xx was crazy as well, with the driver passing a few of the newer xx programme cars and losing the rear and drifting in the middle of the t2 hairpin. after which, he said over the radio, "tires are gone next lap will be cooldown." pretty insane and idk how it happened to me tbh

[@piedpiper1172]

I wish someone would set you up to commentate a dedicated GTD Pro broadcast. I’d gladly pay the $8/month or what ever it is discovery+ charges for that. I find the lead class conceptually interesting, but I would be content with super occasional updates, I wanna watch the actual super cars race each other. Official broadcast always obsesses over the lead class, but GTD cars are real cars, and it’s so much more exciting to me.
