You put the WEC to shame with the amount of quality uploads you do of each race. Thank you for the quick upload of another great IMSA Event. Greetings from York. England.
I followed WEC until they geo-locked my IP address, EVEN WHEN I PAID the subscription in their app + website! I don't have time for a lot of racing and I'm fortunate IMSA is the best.
This is one of the few series you can follow hassle free. Most FIA events you have to pay up or put up with what they upload eventually.
I watched the race on TH-camTV, but this commentating crew is much better.
Thank you so much for uploading this race!
You're the best in the business, IMSA! Keep up the great work.
Imsa is the best at uploading content. WEC was almost a month ago & still no full race video. You guys are amazing
TerryGorah WEC loaded their last race the same day. They do have less activity than IMSA so they’ll have less uploads. But it was a same day upload.
@@matty_o 4 Hours of Silverstone was held on September 1st. Full race replay wasn't uploaded until 3 days ago.
Thank you IMSA for helping us past the virus lockout! We will see you when you return!!!
Three class winners, sure. But the overall winner here is IMSA! Great coverage, great commentary, and great racing!. Well done
Green flag: 4:53
White flag: 2:44:47
Thank you for posting on yt....I can't buy cable and internet is my only access....this is Great as I have Veedol in my veins and the roaring engines make it flow a little better....Thanks again IMSA
The first and final wins for the Ford/Ganassi program were won at Laguna Seca. Perfect way to bookend the program.
Thanks for the upload IMSA!
thank you so much for uploading this great race.. Greeting from Indonesia.
Best race series EVER ! love from Australia ♥
Corvette racing 🏁😎💯
New sub, Thank you so much. Been looking for a channel like this... #1
Thank you for uploading this!
That Porsche is sooo loud its amazing!!! Too bad I won't see one in person.
Thank you very much. Great, just great. Greetings from Spain
Thank you for this upload.
I absolutely ❤️ IMSA
Imsa rocks! Great Race, great Coverage! Keep it that way! Greetings from 🇩🇪! 😎 👍
This track brings me memories of Gran Turismo 2. What a track!! The corkscrew turn is remarkably!!!
Great race at Laguna Seca...
thank you very much from china!
Já vi esta race 5x e não me canso 🔥✌
Glad my favorite team won 👍
I'm hoping after the covid-19 situation gets better, people will be more inclined to go to live events. It's kind of depressing seeing the stands relatively empty for such a great motorsport event.
the race were all been waiting for:)
Amazing race!!🏁🏁❤❤
What a great victory for Montoya and Cameron
thanks!!!
..montoya...cameron...good team!!!!!!
Another great race
Nice LC500 safety car.
Safety car? Where? I didn't see it! Go green all the way!
@@diethersantos6404 Gotcha. I was just commenting happily about green flag racing, not really about the car itself. If I were a true nerd, I might point out that before the race begins, it is a pace car. It is only a safety car when it is needed during the race for safety reasons. Good thing I'm not a true nerd! ;-P
Miss you 💞👍🥞
51:12 Corvette ^ GT battle

Shit like that is why I love IMSA . And drunk weekends at Road America.
@@carlsaganlives4141 2020 and still is great.
This Brit never takes a breath.
Thanks for putting it less than a week later! Even tho I pay for broadcast I can't see it live or on NBCSN app
I can't believe I got my way in GTLM and GTD.
quiet day for shea
Here you are Kathrin (Legge). You are the women of my dreams. I missed you a lot.
The bmw struggle on the first stint because they have high tyre pressure in quali to set a one lap banger, if they have high pressure they don't have to spend 3 laps Warming the tyres up so when they come to the race they rely on defending the pole in the first stint although they can't keep fast times up
49:45 - "...which is the technical term. It's called clumping." That's clumping. It's a clump, not a gaggle! :P Thank you for setting that straight, Hindy!
@28:25 - Torque doesn't mean jack and the turbocharged engines probably have a wider powerband anyway, that's one of the greatest benefits that comes with turbocharging.
Torque is used to push the car in lower revs but power is used in higher revs
@@RZM_Valkyrie No, it's all power.
@@PistonAvatarGuy I looked this up and studied it until I understood it. Torque is independent of time. Power = torque x RPM x a constant (the constant depends on which units you use). Simple algebra says therefore torque = power/(RPM x constant). Since power = torque x RPM x constant, power must be specified at a given RPM. Change the RPM and you change the power, but only if you don't also change the torque to compensate. But the reverse is not necessarily true because you can set RPM = 0 and still have torque. (Think of how a torque wrench works. It measures torque when the wrench and bolt are stationary.) But if you set RPM to 0, you have no power at all. (The mathematics might not make sense here because of the units used and what exactly they represent - work vs power - but power contains a term for time, which cancels in the 2nd equation.) Torque is measured in Newton-meters (independent of time and therefore motion). Rotary power = torque per second (torque per unit-time, dependent on time).
Here's a cool example that helped me wrap my head around it: Complex propeller aircraft work by converting power differences to pure torque differences by maintaining RPM regardless of power (throttle) setting. The propellers are spun at a constant speed (RPM). That speed is recommended by the manufacturer as the most efficient for power or range or wear life or whatever. (For a race car, it would be the middle of the power band.) The prop speed is maintained automatically by keeping the prop speed levers in a fixed position and adjusting the throttle. The prop speed levers cause the pitch of the props to be changed automatically, and therefore the torque needed to turn them at a constant speed. So you leave the speed levers constant and adjust the throttle (which changes power). The prop RPM remains constant, therefore the only thing that changes is torque, because changing power at a constant RPM therefore changes torque. This torque is converted to thrust by the varying pitch of the propellers.
In practical terms, for cars, yeah, torque can usually be used to mean high power at low RPM, but it's more informative (though still not completely correct) to say higher torque represents a wider power band.
Personally, I'd prefer a torquey engine with no turbo-lag. Nothing is free, and the high-end power from turbo is purchased by sacrificing low-end torque through turbo-lag and exhaust back-pressure. You need power to turn the turbines, and no matter how you configure things, that means power that's not going to the wheels. That's my $.02, worth exactly what you paid for it. On to Braselton!
@@dcs002 Excellent! I've never had anyone reply to one of my comments about torque and horsepower after having done some research on the subject and gaining a (mostly) correct understanding of it.

"...but it's more informative (though still not completely correct) to say higher torque represents a wider power band."

Except that, when comparing modern OHC engines (as the high rpm, low torque engines) and pushrod engines (as the low rpm, high torque engines), the opposite is usually true. With high torque, low rpm engines, the powerband will simply come in sooner when starting from a standstill (because peak power is available closer to idle rpm), which is what most people will associate with a wide powerband, but the width of the powerband is not dependent on where it lies within the rpm range of the engine. Low rpm engine performance isn't relevant in this kind of racing, the cars are running fast enough to allow them to stay in their powerband, wherever it might be in the rpm range of the engine.
@@dcs002 A little correction: ...the cars are running fast enough to allow them to stay in their powerband (and on-boost), wherever it might be in the rpm range of the engine.
このレースの一月後､まさかアキュラがトリプルタイトルを獲得するとは思っていませんでした｡
Best race of the IMSA season imo. Great standard of driving by everyone. It’s not easy to overtake here yet there was no silly collisions and best of all it was all green flag.Great stuff. 👍
Totally! I watch IMSA for racing excellence, and it rarely disappoints. Green flag racing all the way!
GO ACURA!!!!
The Corkscrew.....America's version of The Dipper at Bathurst. The Corkscrew as a single corner (and even as an Aussie I'll freely admit this) is a fair bit more of a drop down than The Dipper is though. And The Dipper is taken after an S bend so the approach is slower than what the cars are doing along Rahal Straight before braking hard. And neither corner has much, if any runoff if a driver gets it wrong, has a clash with another car or has a car failure at the wrong moment.
Go Ford !
Cadillac is just the small block chevy they use in the corvette
Montoya el mejor
show!
Can anyone explain the two LMP 2 cars and why I only see them two in other races? The commentators doesn't ever mention them.
Unfortunately these are the only two teams for this season. It's still great to see them as apposed to not at all.
Because LMP2 cars cost nearly as much as DPI cars but they aren't able to win races.
Marwelous
How badly were the Mazdas hampered by Balance of Performance this time around?
Mazda's winning streak was fun while it lasted.
20 kilogram increase in weight and 17 horsepower reduction. Funny how they win a couple of times and BoP is immediately involved, but when Porsche wins 5 times...
@@281cu6 Yeah, right, Porsche is so over the place thx to the BOP, they really rule every race...wait a moment... Maybe you should stop crying about the BOP in GTLM, because I think they never have been closer as this year overall the manufacturas, thx to IMSA. And show me a year, where one of them didn't benefit from the BOP more then the others.
@@christianglock4242 I'm not sure if you are agreeing with me or if you're being contrary.
@@281cu6 I'm just a little bit pissed about some guy's crying like babys for a BOP restriction for the Porsche, but they really forget about the first year of this RSR: It was always a fast car, especially on one round, but Porsche was neither able to manage the tyres nor the fuel consumption of the car. This year they show no weakness at the long runs and it also seems the stint length of at least Porsche, Corvette and Ford are similar, so I think the BOP is OK for the LMGT. Speaking about Madzda the BOP restictions seems indeed unfair, especially when you think about the effort Madzda did with there engine development: The engine was clearly to weak last year, so they developed it further to be even more efficient and also more powerful and now the BOP penalize exactly that effort? This really has more then a bad taste. On the other hand I really do not know how the BOP is calculated at this class, maybe this restictions are not as bad as we think for Madzda/Joest. Think of it, they really did not look at the Laguna Seca race, nor I terms of performance, reliability nor strategy ( I mean why was the 77 in box the same time when the 55 collapsed? Didn't they do longer stint runs as the 55 all the race long? I really get it. So this clearly is a plus for the Penske split at box strategy. ) What I wanted to say: LS was neither their track nor their race and I really hope the long runs at Atlanta will suit them better and as a fan I cross my fingers for Madzda and Joest, but I also can understand for example the Cadillacs and Nissan, they also want to have at least a chance to win so a BOP restriction was necessary, but the question is: Really that big and really only on Madzda? Keyword Honda/Acura
i love the fact your team uploads all this stuff... but why in the hell cant we watch this live in USA if you'll race in the USA? i never understood why.
whats the point of the app if i cant watch IMSA live. because im in the usa
@@irocnotu There are TV contracts with American TV stations which don't allow IMSA to show the races live to Americans.
my dream is to drive in a sports car at laguna seca.
thank you imsa, great racing, thanks for the upload. too bad the cork screw has become more of a speed bump over the years. honestly, how can they still call it the cork screw? it has been changed, flattened out soooo many times over the years. soon it will be a left turn with a slight down hill grade. this track really does suck
I wonder if those fast car drivers giggle 🤭 in their helmet when they pass those slower cars.
Aburrida, pocos rebases en GTLM y GTD :(
Laguna Seca is far too small for this event. 🛂😎
Rabbit - At least it's bigger than Lime Rock,or Long Beach.IMSA so much better at big ,long tracks where you can get some separation of classes.Daytona isn't very challenging ,mostly oval.Road America, VIR,Sebring,etc.. Never gets old seeing a group of prototypes carve through slower traffic on the long straights.Also a lot more room,in general, on the grounds as well as the surrounding area.Spending a weekend or longer at a road racing event is time well spent.Maybe we should keep it secret so it won't turn into Kim&Kanye's next selfie .
Paul Miller Racing lead every lap, finish in 1st from pole, and you can't even get their manufacturer right? Come on now.
who Is brave enough to run the dodge hell cat hemi
No Nissan GT-R’s?
We all wish
Where is bugatti, Koenigsegg,lycan ,bentley & others who claims their cars is the best/fastest in the world??this is best podium to show off..& y so serious???
noway
Poooor BMW.... All that Hype about the M8.. Now in 2nd season. And it still has NO Wins in a full race this season... ( Daytona 24 did not count at all) The car should be able to win straight up. Not with the help of a Red flag.
Is it the car, or drivers/team/strats?? I honestly can't tell??
I think the engine is great in the car. But it seems to just not be a good platform.
Please put this engine in the M2 and then race that car :)
And one perhaps slightly embarrassing aspect is that as far as I remember, the previous M6 obliterated the opposition in some races in 2017.
@@theflagstand You are right. The M6 is actually doing very very well in Europe GT racing. Heck even the Turner guys are not doing bad. Although I will say that the M6 is very ugly compared to the M8.
They are already working on the new car. And they pulled it out of WEC after one season with no wins there either. So I think it is the car??
Or somehow BOP does not work well with the larger car.
@@soraandmypronounsarebleepb3173 Funnily enough, our opinions on the looks of the cars couldn't be more different. I'd say the M8 doesn't look particularly good while the M6 is almost beautiful.
@@theflagstand hahah that is kinda funny. I just like how the M8 is a little more sleak. at least the race car does. The M8 road car is an ugly boat, especially the rear end...... The M6 race car is not bad though. I just like smooth looking lines, like how the M8 tappers off at the rear.
One of their promo videos literally brags about the headlights for like 3 min.... Maybe they should of focused more on the aero and the suspension hahahah.... Sure they look nice, but that will not win a race for you.
@@soraandmypronounsarebleepb3173 I do like the sleekiness of the M8 too but what kinda ruins it for me is the ugly front end of the car. The M6 has more of a classic BMW look and I like that.
I think Porsche deserve a 30 point penalty for how many times they ruined a Corvette's race or any other car's. I think it's unfair that they can get away with what they have done, just my opinion, but that is what I think, if you have anything nice to say please say it, but if you have anything mean to say shove it to your nearest door.
What have they done? Can you give a timeframe on the video please? Must have missed that.
@@christianglock4242 it wasn't in this race, but in past races, look at the Glen, they completely demolished 2 car's, and ruined a Lamborghini's event, and I also believe in the in the Daytona 24, and the Sebring 12 hour they also ruined the Corvette's race mostly #4 car
@@freedommachine4633 ....thats called Motorsport. Didn't the corvettes end some races of Porsche too? For example Road Amercia some years ago? That's called racing!
@Peter Lee Stop crying like a baby , get some soap for your mouth stinky mouth and then we can talk
