I feel bad for Marc cuz he sounded so defeated everytime he crashed.

[@spom3445]

it was his first time driving in the wet in iracing. he did very well all things considering.

[@danczehajek9165]

@@spom3445makes complete sense lol, considering iracing rain at daytona is basically driving in the middle of the track not touching a single kerb or white line

[@spom3445]

@ ontop of that he was one of the drivers that had a fair amount of stutters. he sounded gutted during the rce but chat knew there wasnt really any blame that could be thrown at him. next race he'll be okay i think. just had to break in.

[@nathanbarratt9161]

@@spom3445 Feel like if you're taking part in a 24hr with a chance of rain, you should at least do some practice in the wet so that you're not a liability to your team, and others on the track tbh.

I don't know if you'll read this but here goes. I'm a fan of you and Steve Brown and live in the US. I thoroughly enjoy you both but as someone who has and does struggle with mental health I sincerely appreciate the attention you bring to this topic. You have no idea how many of us you reach. Thank you Jimmy.

[@smallman5509]

13:13 - F'ing brilliant job, Bailey. That's a damn good amount. Genuinely proud. :D

[@Wheatey69]

congrats on baby bimmer jimmer!!!!!

[@jakekay1050]

Such heartbreak for Jimmy after driving basically flawlessly for so long just to witness their car crash on the outlap after his stint. When I saw that live my heart froze over EDIT: I in no way want to throw blame or be negative towards the person who crashed. It happens, it is what it is. But having witnessed that and knowing how that would feel is supremely depressing LOL

[@garrettcooper471]

I feel this pain. I got my team to P1 7 laps up on P2. Finished my stint took a little nap woke up got back on and watched my team mate slam it into the wall of bus stop. Went "it issss what it issss." and jumped back into bed and cried. We were 8 hours in P1 and went all the way to last XD.

[@dustbegone]

watching on stream it was pretty comical timing though

[@Fuzzidio]

Sometimes thats just how it is, I did 6 hours in mine and put my team a lap ahead of P2, then I went to bed to wake up and find my teammates got a Drive Thru and lost P1

[@Goodstegosaurus]

It was Marcs first time driving in the wet in iRacing, so he just miscalculated it. Unfortunate but these things happen

[@jakekay1050]

@@Goodstegosaurus for sure, just majorly unfortunate for it to happen at exactly that moment 💀

[@yoloboy2594]

even though the race result was not what you wanted, the chaos and events that happened along the way were far more enjoyable and it was one of the funniest most enjoyable race i watched live from you!

CONGRATS JIMMY🎉🎉🎉

[@grahamcrackergaming1540]

Bad luck, Jimmer. Better luck next year. Definitely 100% will get it next year. But congrats on baby Broadbent. I will say with iRacing though with the rain, I feel like the visuals don’t really match the grip levels. Like the track is lightly wet but the spray is as if it’s been raining for a while. Ran the Roar and had a race with rain, ran basically lightly wet conditions the since 25 mins in. But it was like borderline dry tires or wets whichever one u were comfortable with and didn’t really 100% need wets til like the last 40 mins or so. And ya just had some guys in TCR who’re comparing lap times and what tires they’re on and being like “oh this is so unrealistic. The tires r so broken. Yada yada.” And had one guy say that the track is only lightly wet, calm down. But the spray is as if it’s been raining moderately for about 5-10 mins. I like iRacing’s rain model and physics, but that’s probably the one thing about it that I’m starting to see isn’t right about it.

[@peterensor9689]

Fantastic determination by all. Well done

Really bummed with myself for missing Daytona this year. It's one of my favorite events you do More importantly, congrats on the kid. :)

[@thehuggingsimmy1765]

The comedic timing at 25:17 was unbelievable especially when you consider they were on their outlap after just repairing the car. 😂😂

[@xXxDeamonlordxXx]

You know what i love about your grand opening picture? One streak of hair goes the opposite direction, and they kept it^^ Also, given that Bilstein Black Falcon Overall on your Pic, may i ask if you, Steve, Manny and Misha are going to race the NLS next year again? I always keep my thumbs squeezed you get to drive an GT3 someday in there. But your GT4 experience was also just insane. Also, congrats on becoming a Dad, Jimmer. Next car to race on might be a Bobycar;)

[@alexandrebelinge8996]

It was a great stream, honestly I enjoyed it more than the real race ...

[@LostParadise_]

Jimmer, I remember in one of your videos about the 24h of Nurburgring, winning might be the goal of any race, but finishing a 24h race is a feat within itself. Don't beat yourself up too much! Shit happens, and you guys still drove hard for 23h straight! Also, congrats on becoming a dad! Can't wait to see Guy get some laps in. Kid's got a weight advantage while he's young!

[@K-Anator]

[@Pursuit918]

So jimmy, have you posted anything about the Moza stuff going on? Just wondering because you're the reason I got a wheel from them and then immediately got my bank account hacked kekw. You should warn all the people you are potentially convincing to buy from them!

[@JacobZ14]

yeah you should've bought from a reseller off their website, happened to me aswell. they ran an "internal investigation" of some sort and said they didn't find any proof of the bank account hacks even though *many* had posted about being hacked. really poor of them tbh.

Hey jimmy you might not see this or recognize me but when you said daytona is alway somewhere we get fucked.
