    One option if you like this sort of thing (I do) is listen to Radio Le Mans: http://direct.sharp-stream.com/radioshow.mp3

    Also, the Nismo youtube channel has some pretty good stuff including a better (in some ways) live timing screen that also happens to have Radio Le Mans audio. If you go there, click the boxes at the top for different views, though at the moment both of their remaining cars are in the pits for some reason so no currently active onboards: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyrcKvv-4pE"]Le Mans 24 Hour 2015 - LIVE NISMO STREAM! #GTRLeMans #LM24 #24LM - YouTube[/ame]

    If you're an Audi fan, you won't see this as good news. About a half hour ago (?) the #7 hit the pits because a big chunk of the rear body work ripped off.

    Dang, I've got to get some sleep! Been enjoying watching and listening to the Vette for way too long tonight.

    Nice to see a new team on the top step & the third string for that team. I really don't care much for hybrid racing especially since these hybrids are so damned homely looking. At least the GT categories have some nice lookers in it. Congrats to the Corvette team. :Thumbsup:

    I know! I had that in-car pulled up on one of my desktops with an external 5.1 system, so I was hearing that beautiful V8 all over my house, virtually the entire race, except for the few hours I slept Sat night. Le Mans is most definitely the premiere sporting event for me.

    Back When Mid-Ohio was being run properly and they actually staged real racing (!), I didn't miss the ALMS for years. Just to sit on several of the grassy mounds and feel the ground shake when the C5/C6r's would rumble by is something I will never forget...
