@@justinkrizenesky Facts, I remember back in 2014 when indycar was stopping in houston during the summer and I went with my dad to see it. We were there all day and got to watch the first races (think it was like some spec fords or something) then the mx-5 cup came after which was a great race as the conditions went from partly cloudy to overcast and started to rain halfway through and getting worse in spurts and seeing the front runners going door to door full force despite the rain made for a great watch. Was a very good saturday for sure. Then star mazda followed suit after and of course the indycar race
Absolutely perfection. This is one of my favorite racing categories. I only watch the IMSA broadcasts for the MX-5's. Guaranteed smile and excitement every single race. Thanks IMSA for providing a simple, professional, entertaining race.
The runs these cars get with the bump drafting is just awesome to watch. And the little inline 4s actually sound pretty good too. The whole pack sounding like angry bees.
I just started watching imsa and my goodness what have I missed with the Mazda series! I was smiling and laughing watching this whole race! It’s amazing!
It’s absolutely fantastic to be able to watch everything from cutting edge GTP prototypes, to MX5 Cup cars on the same channel. This is pure racing, thank you.
Congratulations and thank you to the IMSA team & NASCAR Productions for getting this uploaded so quickly, you do an amazing job. The MX-5 series is a brilliant series, never fails to give close racing at any venue, but on ovals these cars are insane. Not a bad training ground for any prospective NASCAR driver. The commentary team from IMSA Radio, John Hindaugh and Shea Adam are some of the very best in the business, they are part of IMSA Radio who provide all the commentary for IMSA races, They are often joined by Jeremy Shaw who is also excellent, though Shea is often found in the pits during IMSA Weathertech races covering the pit action, where she frequently display encyclopaedic knowledge of cars, drivers and teams.
These are the best races all season, every year, over any other series!! Can't wait till today's race!! Love the announcers too. They bring a ton of excitement to the broadcast!! Bravo!!
Has to be one of the most exciting races I have ever seen - if anyone here follows the BTCC, it gives off Ginetta Juniors vibes of something very low powered, good handling, and aggressive overtaking opportunities. Put on one hell of a show tonight.
They sound better than most of the GT/GTP field hahajaja. Also, thank you IMSA. If you keep it up like this, then you will be on top of any other series. Grateful fan here
What a race. Bloody unreal. They may not be fastest cars but they produce bloody good racing and isn't that what racing is about. Having multiple cars battling for the win.
Everyone in the inside track "alright I'm serious driver I'll aim for every apex, get the perfect line" Everyone in the oval "eheh bump drafting go BOOP"
Very exciting racing! They sound like angry yellow jackets, very much like late '80s V6 NASCAR Busch Series cars. 💪🇺🇲🏁 Edit: Brilliant commentary as well!
Shoutout to the IMSA broadcast/social crew for having this posted already! Thanks for all you do!
and as well to have these to commentate. Love listening to them together.
@@gebventures 100% agree! Shea and John are brilliant in the booth!
Who are the announcers? They do a great job
@Tracy Fowler That would be Shea Adam and John Hindhaugh, 2 of the best in the biz!
Mazda MX-5 cup never disappoints at Daytona
Anywhere*

I think about what it would be like to race in Iracing Daytona 😅 🚗💥🚗💥🚗💥🚗💥
“Do you make the move now…”
“NO!”
I love this broadcast duo. Props to IMSA for posting this almost immediately
I loved that!

The last lap was insane.
Half a car length between the top 3 is just absolutely ridiculous.
Any time there's a draft of three or more racers, fireworks happen on the last lap at Daytona. It's a rule.
This series is so excellent. Pure racing with great driving and great production all around.
The runs these cars get with the bump drafting is just awesome to watch. And the little inline 4s actually sound pretty good too. The whole pack sounding like angry bees.
This is one the best series in motor racing imo. These guys always race like it's all on the line!
Love these races! Such a fun format and results in some amazing racing.
I just started watching imsa and my goodness what have I missed with the Mazda series! I was smiling and laughing watching this whole race! It’s amazing!
Thanks IMSA for all your videos. It allows us to follow all the races with high quality and at any time.
You are an example for all motorsport.
It’s absolutely fantastic to be able to watch everything from cutting edge GTP prototypes, to MX5 Cup cars on the same channel. This is pure racing, thank you.
Gonzales never disappoints! Congratulations to him and imsa for such a great opening of the '23 season! Year of the 51!
That hands down was the best racing I’ve seen in a long time. I am now officially a fan!!
It's like car behind push the front car to overtake another when slipstreaming😂. So amazing to watch this competition.
Thanks IMSA team for posting this so quickly, this makes following IMSA from Australia much easier! Bravo!
What an amazing sound and a fun race!
Thanks @IMSA Official for getting this up so quickly!
Enjoy!
Love these MX5 races. Amazing finish.
Absolutely amazing race, thanks for the replay!

I like the way the I-4 engines make that buzzing sound.
True. But nothing beats the high pitched scream of a v10
Bumblebees on wheels
I was looking to record this race. Thanks for putting here to watch it.
Has to be one of the most exciting races I have ever seen - if anyone here follows the BTCC, it gives off Ginetta Juniors vibes of something very low powered, good handling, and aggressive overtaking opportunities.
Put on one hell of a show tonight.
First time watching this. I expected it to be fun, it was REALLY FUN
That is simply the most entertaining racing this track will get all year. It’s like the 500 but actually good racing.
What a finish and we get to see another race tomorrow 🤯
Absolutely fantastic series. Evwry race for the past 3 years
Thanks IMSA for showing this. Fantastic racing all drivers. Great class to start in racing.
Tune in today at 10:10 a.m. ET for live coverage of race two on IMSA.com/tvlive.
John hindhaughs voice is like a warm hug
WHAT A RACE! gg all drivers
They sound better than most of the GT/GTP field hahajaja.
Also, thank you IMSA. If you keep it up like this, then you will be on top of any other series. Grateful fan here
Mazdas never dissapoint. What a finish!
Awesome racing!! Thanks for the call.
I love all the shots with the low golden sun. Hooray for Florida weather! My Fiata will be snowed into my garage for a couple more months.
Like a swarm of raging hornets, I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
Only if the IMSA brodcast/social crew could teach the Indy Car team how to upload races after they've been done that would be amazing
MX-5 gonna MX-5
And I absolutely love it!
The video went up so fast.. Thanks @IMSA
Absolutely beautiful race
5:09 race start

Can't wait for race. that was incredible, the mx-5 produces great racing
Glad this posted. Am I the only one that can’t see the broadcast on Peacock anymore? Both times for this week’s MX-5 races disappeared.
I saw the same thing. I had them saved and now they are gone. What is up Peacock?
These cars continually put on the best racing of any series at this track!
MX-5s are IMSA Officially back! Winter isn't so cold any more.
WHAT A RACE
I want to drive an MX-5.🤩🤩
Best racing on the planet and the IMSA crew always kills it with MX5
These cars are fun as hell to watch!
My first MX5 cup race, that was unbelievable
The fact you can watch this on RUclips is golden
This is the best racing anywhere on the planet.
Love the #69 for using the iconic green-orange Renown livery
What a great series!
From the start to the finish we had awesome racing!
Great race and great commentary team 👍👍
one day, one day i will watch one of these races live, until then, i shall watch on here.

bloody hell that was an exciting race !!!
Absolutely crazy from start to finish
So great hearing your voices Sha and John
How many of these races are we gonna watch where three or four cars are locked together at the finish? It’s amazing!!!! Carrying on from last year.
The lads in the Mazda team did extraordinarily well, wouldn't you say?
What a race. Bloody unreal. They may not be fastest cars but they produce bloody good racing and isn't that what racing is about. Having multiple cars battling for the win.
Incredible race!!!! Gj Bruno, almost got it 🏁
Zillisch 💚💙 ⚡⚡🤟
But that Rookie Bruno Smilievski 🇧🇷 really doing great job with that 48:30 move 😬
Another amazing MX-5 cup race, jesus.
dude I wanna race mx5s so bad
Everyone in the inside track "alright I'm serious driver I'll aim for every apex, get the perfect line"
Everyone in the oval "eheh bump drafting go BOOP"
We don't deserve the MX-5 cup. What a race, what a series!!!!
Miata's on the Bank! You gotta love it!
Thank you IMSA!!
Thought zilisch was done after that slam out of 4 but that was good driving moving up top 👏👏👏
Amazing to watch!
Best. Racing. Ever.
I was starting to get acute withdrawals. Thanks for the hit.
Love this series and love IMSA ❤️
All race organizations take note!!! IMSA does things right. And my god the mx5 cup is stupidly entertaining!!!
Very exciting racing! They sound like angry yellow jackets, very much like late '80s V6 NASCAR Busch Series cars. 💪🇺🇲🏁 Edit: Brilliant commentary as well!
Hope that a Mazda wins the race..
As exciting as ever! 🏁
This stuff is cutthroat! 👏🏾🤣 And I'm here for it.
Shea and John, the best trackside commentators in racing.
