Im sure itll show up on youtube soon. Its soo worth watching at least the last 2 hours. I was watching the olympics but got bored. Started surfing jalopnik and saw the updates and someone posted a live stream.. Started watching about 2 hours in, i got hooked!!!
It was awesome!!!! They showed some replays of earlier parts, and apparently the GTR got knocked out early in a horrible crash with a ferrari.. That sucked, wouldve been cool to see godIlla take on the other 2. But man it was good, im never missing this race again

Yea i remember watching the gt3 series and those SLS were absolute monsters on straighter portions of the tracks. The Audi R8 LMS though is only a little slower on the straights but hits curves like Charlie Sheen hits the nerves of every respectable woman in America

This race made the superbowl look like bingo at an old folks home in florida. Im sure soon ford and all others will start using there secret machines in the works.. Its gonna get reeeally interesting when those insane hybrid GT cars start racing.. P1 v 918 v laferrari v whatever the hell the bmw i8 evolves into
Btw, the mclaren in this race was setting lap times almost the same as the f1 cars.. Also if you got to the homepage i think the have a replay of the whole thing

Nice that a couple of Coyote powered Focuses finished in the top 20 (and 1st in class) . . .

i know this is a super long video, but try to watch starting at about the 13 minute mark, or the 40 minute mark, but definitely try to see the last two hours... it will help you understand why the final 15 min of the race were so intense
