That's what they want don't take the bate look away remember they want you to buy it for an insanely high price when it's mostly plastic lol it a great car and a different car then what they have made before and now they got the point it'll be better from now on
This is a great track...if I ever get to the west coast I definitely want to catch a race here and at Laguna Seca...two of my bucket list tracks for sure. I saw this race on tv and man what a fight between Magnusson and Nasr until K-Mag hit the wall
I went to the MOTOGP race at Laguna Seca back in 2012.. which ended up being the second to last season they hosted the GP races :(. An amazing track to visit though.
@@Formaldehydex the race wasn't ruined...one drivers race was ruined, which happens on lap 1 at almost any track on any given race. For a real street circuit it's great, chances for overtaking, high speed corners, low speed corners and iconic sections (including the hairpin) 😉
@@Formaldehydex well you could say he should have qualified better and he wouldn't have been back there to be involved...and to my recollection wasn't the championship leader back there with him? So that was about as fair as it could get... just a racing incident in which any driver could have been involved
I finally started catching up with the IMSA and the WRC. One whale of a race. My heart goes out to BMW 96 and MSR 60. They had a chance. But that's racing. You cannot win them all. But thanks for the show IMSA. You brought the house down!!!! And gave the people their money's worth!!!!!!
Great race, Freaking knife fighting in places. I've never seen a race where the cars look so unsettled on the track. Lots of fun. Wish the Acura had the pace to keep up with the Cadillac.
When Jeremy said Jan Magnusson instead of Kevin it went right by me. Time warp I guess. That goes to show you how long I've been watching this wonderful stuff.
I'td be great to see static camera placements on the wall at some of the fast sections of the circuit, like in Aussie V8 Supercars, and kerb cams on other fast circuits like VIR
Why were the GTLM Porsche RSR's performance slow at this curcuit? Even the GTDs were keeping pace with it. The two Corvettes were over a minute up the track. Might be too late now but the BOP should of been looked at.
I know you do playlist for each championship by year but I am trying to save space on my saved playlist list, as thanks to a glitch within RUclips the amount of playlist that appear are limited, so I'm trying to with putting all the races in one playlist it acts as a centralised way of accessing all the races whilst saving space in regards to my saved playlist list.
How the heck does the tv crew not see how the 4 corvette passes the 3 car. Also we didn’t see how the 9 Porsche passes the 14 Lexus. Cmon this is one my favorite races of the year too.
Good race. However, I do find some of the camera work a bit annoying. Shots are often very short with whole sequences of sub-5sec shots. It can be quite nauseous at times.
The No. 79 Porsche is also has a red number panel. The red indicated an all PRO driver lineup as where the green represents a PRO-AM driver lineup. GTLM and the DPi class are all PRO driver lineups as where the GTD class is a PRO-AM lineup. Please feel to visit www.imsa.com/discover-series/ to learn more about each series and classes.
Seems like the number 39 Audi couldnt stay out of trouble, pushed Foley wide into the wall, turned 16 around, and almost pushed the #9 Porsche into the wall as he did it
@Khristian Asaro Acura, Aston Martin, BMW, Lamborghini, Lexus, Mercedes and Porsche all on the entry list for the GTD class at our upcoming event at VIR (15 total entries). Looking back the past five years at VIR: 2016/12 entries, 2017/16 entries, 2018/10 entries, 2019/13 entries, 2021/14 entries for the GTD class at this event.
@@imsaofficial 2019 Daytona: 11 DPI’s, 9 GTLM, and 23 GTD’s 2021 Daytona: 7 DPI’s, 6 GTLM minus 5 cars from that category later on and +1 Porsche, and 19 GTD. Daytona 24 hours is a big race, but just watching races after Daytona and seeing teams leave and seeing each class shrink is kinda sad. Miss the old IMSA from 2016 to 2019.
@@Dethmeister that's because on past years it was the Porsche manufacturer team who raced. So it was literally Porsche competing. Now Porsche left, so the Porsche is just a customer team driving a Porsche, not porsche itself. So they don't have a very strong Driver Lineup, I mean they have different Drivers every race, and the equipment is also not top class.
Anyone understand why in THIS race AND the Laguna Seca one they NEVER would show the split times between the cars??? They just constantly showed the mfg logos on the standings.... Hope that's not a new IMSA thing...
The Corvette is now way better then most cars but dam that Lexus is bad ass car I hope they realize how many years they could have made this car and lost out on all that time to win but hay you can't get it right all the time it's time to change the looks of all cars and drive train we need to get better look at the front runners they got small motors like my vw and are better than all Theo's cars that are way larger motor and car then what's laping them it's funny how slow a Lambo is compare to the top leaders
The Lambo won in it's class. Are you saying the Lambo should be as fast as the DPi class? It's hard to tell what you are talking about when you put just one long rambling sentence. The winner in the DPi class was a Cadillac with a big V8. Who is Theo? Anyway this series uses Balance of Performance rules so that the cars will run similar lap times with other cars in the same class regardless of engine size.
@@Dethmeister what I was saying was just a response put in the wrong place I just was trying to say that Chevy should have made this mid engine Corvette along time ago it would have crushed the opposition for a long time just like some of the other super cars have done for years. also at the end were you say I'm rambling it's just pointing out that we should have made more mid engine car by now but USA will be USA and we don't get some of the cool car the rest of the planet gets I was just trying to also say that the Lexus is a vary fast car also which I feel like with a little work it could destroy the competition.... Is what I was trying to say if you understand
Kenny, you should visit IMSA.com and subscribe to our newsletter so you can keep up with the latest in the WeatherTech Championship. The GTLM class is being phased out for the GTD PRO class in 2022. However, your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your feedback @Andrew Marshall Not really sure what it implies but if you have further details you would like to share, please feel free to email info@imsa.com. Thanks!
With all the hype and build up, IMSA has taken a step backwards. The only genuine class is GT Daytona, where you have 10 different manufacturers competing for a title. Being as all the bigger classes are manufacturers money battles (like DPI's and GTLM), please don't take me the wrong way, all racing requires the almighty dollar. There is a genuine interest from those manufacturers (from GTD cars) to build cars to compete in the world market of automobiles. Personally they shouldn't have a Le Mans level car, but none the less they should have a world capable race car (from production vehicles), to establish competition across the board. Do it with the GT3 cars. Ford no longer competes in IMSA with $600,000 street? cars modified for racing, when Chevrolet is modifying street cars to race, same money involved. Point being that if you create a class of high performance street cars turned racers, I believe from that interest that it will create the purest form of racing competition. One that the race car fan can get the greatest enjoyment from.
I had the privilege of seeing this in person. It was the first motor race I've ever been to! Absolutely fantastic!
Same.. the sound of the prototypes were incredible! Great weekend all around!
Im jealous man, awesome did u watch the indycar race too???

If I didn’t work that Saturday I definitely would’ve went that day as well but the indycar race was awesome too

I like cars and race cars but that C8R, I just can't stop looking at it.
Sounds INSANE in person
That's what they want don't take the bate look away remember they want you to buy it for an insanely high price when it's mostly plastic lol it a great car and a different car then what they have made before and now they got the point it'll be better from now on
@@sfunked Alot louder than the C7R my opinion
I was at this race it looks and sounds insane
Same here.
Great commentators. Made the race fun to watch.
I wish they'd do NFL broadcasts.. tired of trying to understand those athletic 'announcers' with their mouth full of marbles...
These are by far my favorite announcers!! Remarkable commentary; synonymous with IMSA
First, i dont liked this two, when it starts here on the channel, but now, they are my favorites too.
Just love this channel and IMSA.
Go Nasr and Pipo!!

Thank you Imsa for another awesome upload your playlists and videos are much appreciated
The Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach is a great race. It's right up there with Indianapolis and Daytona as far as prestige.
Long Beach will always be a classic!
Thanks for the upload. Drama everywhere on the track! :-)

Shits loud tho
This is a great series to watch! This track looms difficult! Very interesting and great commentary!
Would have loved to go to the AGP of Long Beach this year. Really like the broadcast though, well done guys. Great Race!!!
A great place to spend the weekend watching all the racing activities!
Hell yeah boys, striking distance from the lead, go go Paul Miller Racing, and go go IMSA! Looking fwd to VIR this weekend!
Thanks; IMSA. 😅Watching this before class starts
Great race, Freaking knife fighting in places. I've never seen a race where the cars look so unsettled on the track. Lots of fun. Wish the Acura had the pace to keep up with the Cadillac.

I mean they dont really have any competition
Not at le man lol

No one catches it but the reason the 9 Porsche gets a run and passes the 16 Porsche is because Long in the 16 taps the inside wall at 1:13:00.

wish i went to this one

I miss the 1970’s layout…. Sitting in the bleachers at the hairpin was one of the most amazing racing experiences of my life…. But that was F1
Beatifull my friend

Great Race!!!
How often do these cars need to pit??
Why are the 2 corvettes and other car's number red? And the greens? Somebody explain?
The No. 79 Porsche is also has a red number panel. The red indicated an all PRO driver lineup as where the green represents a PRO-AM driver lineup.

Another win for Corvette
That gun throw at 9:30 was some gangster shit
such a good race at the end
Did the Indy Cars dump Long Beach?
No, IndyCar was also at this year's event.
Easy win for corvette
Seems like the number 39 Audi couldnt stay out of trouble, pushed Foley wide into the wall, turned 16 around, and almost pushed the #9 Porsche into the wall as he did it
No tyres heating in IMSA, is that new rule?
Awesome
Love it
Vrooom no limit!
