In my opinion John Hindhaugh is one of the best commentator who still commentating now, I think if this guy goes to commentator in F1, MotoGP, NASCAR, IndyCar and many others this guy get note 10, is absolute amazing, + Jeremy Shaw are the best combo 1-2 for commentating, also others IMSA commentators are incrdible, congrats🎉🎊👏!

[@46wireboy]

If he's the main mouth, then I hope he goes, anywhere I don't have to listen to him. I was so hoping not to hear his terrible commentating again. He starts off, as usual, showing his prowess by proving he can't tell a Porche from a Ferrari, there, fanboy.

I always boot up Gran Turismo whenever there’s a 24 hr race to see how long I can last driving while the race is on. I’ve done all 24 hours once. I’ve not lasted even 16 since. I must’ve killed a ton of my life force when I did that......

[@donniebaker5984]

what a light weight ...ive played Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for more than 24 hours many many times online killing everybody over and over ...hacked guns with no recoil yaw pitch or roll firing 30,000 rounds per minute dead on target looking like a big laser weapon with damage turned up from 100 max to 90,000 knocking avatars clear off the map as no one ever had a chance ! then I found the movement speed listed on every gun like a AK-47 was 1.0 .guess what happens when you change that number to 5 ? you can run 5 times faster than anyone else in the game so fast you dont even appear on their monitors until you stop ...like dirrectly in front of ssomeone and fire your dead hehehe

[@A.F.Whitepigeon]

I appreciate the switch away from showing the classes on the scrolling ribbon at the botton; that information was redundant due to the color-coded number panels. However, I still think there's room for improvement. With multi-class racing, it only takes a few laps for every car outside the DPi class to be listed in terms of laps down, which make that information less useful for keeping track of the battles. It would be better to list each car's gap to its respective class leader or simply show the intervals between every car.
