Gt2 race looks amazing,but I am not sure the M3's are good on the long run and over the big bumps.It will be down to the Vettes & The Flying Lizard Porsches at the 12 hour mark.I hope I am wrong on the M3's!It is going to be good!

Leh Keen is driving a nice race (we will forgive him for driving a Porsche) Hope his team can hold it out to the finish!

2 hours to go and the M3's are 2-3 behind the Risi Ferrari. Pretty good.

Too bad I'm in Brazil and can't watch the race.

Our M3 90 and 92 cars took 2nd and 3rd position in the GT2 Class...

Leh Keen also took the win in a Porsche for the GTC class.. Very proud that he still posts here regularly..

I watched a little bit of it...I was a bit frustrated with the network coverage. Seemed to be too much coverage of the P1 cars. I know they are the fastest on the track...but I wanted to watch more of the GT2 race. Maybe I just switched it on at a bad time...but I only saw the BMW's for a few minutes when they were pitting and then a couple minutes with the on-board camera. Does that engine sound sweet or what??

Happy to see them get a podium finish though! Off to a solid start!
