    I wasted quite a bit of time this morning trying to tune into the race; downloaded Fox sports go to my phone, went to the wec site, searched on line for alternatives to no avail. Fox is using my money, that Comcast pays them for fox1, to buy programming they split show on fox2. Power games like this make me pull for Comcast dropping fox all together. I would much rather visit friendly places like Priuschat.

    Time zones are our enemy online. El Dobro is in Eastern Time so 8:30 for him may not be 8:30 for you. (you do not list a location)

    EST. I've been watching the race on FS2 from the beginning.
    Try this.
    Audi

    The announcers keep saying the Toyotas are in the race, but I haven't seen them. :rolleyes:

    The races are Porsche vs. Audi and Corvette vs. Aston Martin.

    Toyota?

    Every car could have been a Toyota, I could not see the race. Perhaps next year they will look past their huge pay checks and bring the race to the people. Just say no to fox.

    There were multiple classes of cars running, I didn't see any mention of a Toyota on a podium.

    There were at least three sites streaming the race.

    I guess they figured they would wait the others out. Oh, well.
    Congrats to Corvette #64.

    The best Toyota did was 6th (8 laps behind the winner)
