>>15153007
Waren die Nachbarn letztes Jahr, aber das Bild ist einfach genial.
>>15153155
So muss das. Maximum Comfy, Bier und Rennsport. Nächstes Jahr fahre ich auch zum Ring. Komme was wolle
Also: HYPE! Who here is watching the whole 24h Stream?
>>15153175
I'll try to watch as much as I can.
Not sure if I'll go there ever again. Of course it's an awesome atmosphere and all but every year there's more idiots. Last night several of the little race marshall shacks were broken into, people stole flags, fire extinguishers and other equipment. On several parts of the track people wrote stuff with wall paint. In general, more and more dumb people come only to drink and party and make it less enjoyable for motorsport fans every year.
When drunk idiots stepped in front of my car, leaning on the hood and yelling for burnouts, I decided it's more fun to watch the race in its entirety and with all the cameras via the stream.
>>15153282
That sucks, the actual race is better on tv anyway.
This channel will be streaming official stream + Radio Le Mans audio
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1gzEhuU2tfwjtJdNCHj7kw
>>15153282
Is the fun of 24h Nurburgring coming to an end?
Is it too late for everyone else?
Nächstes Jahr binn ich vielleicht dabei
/o/ meet am Ring when?
>>15153296
>>15153314
Not sure, on one hand, there were always people that lose all inhibitions when drunk and. On the other hand, there's a tendency for people to expect to be allowed to do whatever they please. There's more and more hate against police and security in general, mostly in the so called "tuning" scene which is a big part of the motorsport fan scene. While a few years back they still had at least respect for other peoples property and well being, currently it seems like there is a growing tendency to ignore that (still a minority of people) and to tolerate it (growing group of people). Trying to stay out of the stupid behaviour means accepting it, and that's what annoys me even more, I guess.
And it's not just 24h Nürburgring. It's other events, too. It's everywhere. For the same reason I don't go to Wacken anymore.
>>15153314
Soon only Russian cars will be allowed
>>15153327
People stole this wheel from the pit lane today.
Last year a complete exhaust was stolen.
Also last year, someone stopped a guy from stealing a race car right in the pit lane with OBD cable leading out to the guys working on it in the pit.
>uh, that's not my car, thought it was mine
>>15153336
people in the "party sections" threw glas bottles and trash onto the track last night
Some people on facebook actually start to call it "normal" and people shouldn't be angy about it and accept it. That's what I ment that annoys me the most.
>Just accept that people don't know how to behave normally.
>LET ME AND MY FRIENDS BE ASSHOLES ALREADY
>>15153351
People poured paint and, possibly, brake fluid or acid over this guy's car. I dislike Opel as much as the next guy, but come on, damaging someone else's property - or even touching it, leaning against it, etc - that's uncalled for. That's just plain being a shitty asshole.
They are rolling out!
5 MINUTES HYPE
International stream slightly behind?
>>15153527
Oh, stream entirely is. RLM site stream is ahead about 15-25 seconds?

>>15153527

Had to pause RLM for a few seconds to sync, yeah.

>>15154799

Could someone explain me how the 24h race works? How many cars are driving? I thought only 30 (Haribo team, Falken, etc.). Now I see on the live timing site that there are around 200 cars and Subaru is on position 1?
You can have class wins against who ever is in your class.
Overwall wins almost always go to the GT3 (called SP9) cars
>>15154852
24 hours of who gets the most laps in that time by cars in different classes on the same track.
I'm just amazed by how much speed wet tires allow in this weather. Absolutely ridiculous.
>>15154867
have you seen how many people are losing control?
>>15154852
The live timing system isn't working.
>>15154869
So? It's still incredible speeds through most corners.
>>15154885
The GT3 spec cars have really good mechanical grip, that makes them spectacular in wet weather. Even in the rainy races in the WEC last year the GT3 cars began to approach the LMP2 cars lap times because of that.

>>15155223
we would need sponsors. but it's useless anyway, since we could never agree on what car to race. half would want to race a twingo, the other half would want a BMW and the third half would want a miata. and some guy would want a volvo 240.
>>15155223
Tires and fuel are free at Dubai. The sand coons are paying for that. That being said, that's why I play video games and attend track days for my racing fix instead.

Check the link called "Live stream" in OP
>>15155302
There is an IMSA race stream with more way race sounds but it won't sync the race. I tried putting together a stream with both but it just didn't feel right.
Otherwise Vodaphone has at least a dozen live streams of cockpit views on their youtube along side the international and german general streams.
Pick the second option:
http://radiolemans.0157.org/nplayer.php
If there is interest in a stream with that audio I can put it back up again...

i had a look at the thread and it was shit
>>15155613
But those are old news and have already been talked about, and the fact of the matter is the /sp/ thread is about as "bad" as this thread with
>muh no nurburgring gf

>>15155610
forza 6 apex. comes for free if you sold your soul for windoes 10 but its limited content... dunno if that will change
>>15155623

>>15155624
>>15155625
That being said, if you other webms of things that haven't been posted, do go ahead
>>15155633

I wonder if there's any Dubai oil prince /o/utists who could pay for everything a hundred times over? They seem to like their cars, so it's not entirely impossible.
>>15155670
It's driven by thought and strength of will alone. The M6 has too much of it's own so it's engine couldn't handle it.

Same here. The question of whether we can get a WAT entry at a 24h race comes up in /ovg/ from time to time because many of us play racing games as a substitute for real racing. I like doing track days too but they're not really racing either. O-one day we'll both make it anon

Any extra lights are probably part of the bodykit, which is pretty much an original part that you probably can't get unless you buy an entire race car, because most constructors are just divisions of big companies, not separate entities.

>>15159539
It tapped the 1M which then went off into the M6 which had just left the pits IIRC.
>>15159539
>>15156377
are you a Liverpool fan by any chance
>>15159551
>>15159273
right ...
>>15159555
So what? The BMW pulled into it. What's the Fiesta got to do with its driver cutting over a curb with a known dip at the end?
>>15159561
He should have left more room to the left, but imo The 1M is to blame equally for going for that even though the M6 is approaching.
Fiesta got scared and went too far left.
