Between this series, Porsche Cup, and MX-5's there is a HUGE amount of entertainment in watching these single-make IMSA series. I loved this. Keep up the great work IMSA, John, and Shae
I’m just going to say this right now. IMSA knew what they were doing when putting the super start batteries sponsor at the starting line. It was not random and you won’t convince me otherwise.
I was at the race Saturday and tbh I didnt care for it. Then I learned about the car and the "spirit" of the series and fell in love. Was never a muscle car guy, this series changed me
Adding 65 grand for a roll cage install, fire suppression, racing seat? I hope there is something I`m missing like maybe electronics and carbon brakes for the cost bump.I`m just wondering what the upgrades are that justifies 140 grand price.
The only thing missing from putting Opalski in the back of the Explorer was putting him in cuffs, first. Maybe it only looked like he accelerated through the grass because the others were braking. Seemed strange.
he got knocked off the track by the dark green/orange car, could have made his foot slip or braking with two wheels on the grass can make the ABS weird out
Assuming they can keep the numbers up, I'd say Ford made a good business decision starting this series up. Replacement parts are gonna by flying off the shelves.
Not much of a crowd. I went the last year IMSA raced there, they hadn't cut the grass; nothing had been done to the track in years... it was a mess. Needless to say, I stayed home this year.
Lmao. Mustangs doing mustang things and spinning the entire race. Here's my question: is the driver quality worse in the mustang challenge or the supertrofeo challenge? Which get the honor of the worse bunch of fake racecar drivers?
Well, this is the only way Ford can sell these cars. By selling them to the racing team's and rich people. Because these new Mustangs are garbage. Their ugly and Ford did pretty much nothing from the last gen. pretty lazy if you ask me. I'm not paying 61k for 40 more hp😂😂😂😂. I'll just keep my current Gt.
6:45 looks like opalski got doored off the track by bachoura to me, you can see the green debris flying in the air... Shae talking about braking too late lmao.
@@jimccc9467 I didn’t know doored has a connotation of intention… I just meant they hit door to door, which means no blind spots and can see the car next to you.

Great Racing! Love those Mustangs! GO FORD!!!!!
Awesome sound. Keep it at these levels! Thanks IMSA.
Loved both of those races. Best idea I’ve seen in a long time in racing.
Ford Mustang racing is awesome thanks guys girls for brilliant coverage love it👍🇬🇧
Nick Smither & Jim Farley -- Great job!!! Looks like a lot of fun! Mark Rushbrook -- your team has done a great job!
😂😂😂😂Yeah that ram at the beginning was definitely bad blood between the two😂😂😂😂😂. It's almost like I was playing Gran Turismo 7 online 😂😂.
Also great commentating on the IMSA channel!

Hey Kel -- Great to see you out there!!!
I thought the Porsche and Mazda series were all I needed in my viewing life. Apparently I was wrong. This is fantastic.
Nice race in a cool series on a challenging track.
Love that ford made this series. 3 pedals, V8s. Hell yeah brotherrr! Will be watching every race.
Okay i gotta get into this series
This is fantastic. Feels and sounds a bit like old school trans am racing. Will be even better when the drivers become familiar with the cars
More Shea, please.
Moostang Challenge, lol I love it!

Ford following Harleys lead. Selling an illusion of dated, sub par design.
More fun to watch than F1 honestly. I hope this inspires more like it.
do they have the right brake fluid? some appear not to.
What the difference DH and DHL?
They should try Matt’s Recovery Ropes, lol

Complete repave so there’s that.
Hahaha we made the same comment about the grass. I enjoyed the weekend
The pin on the Ohio map for this and the MX-5 Cup is nowhere close to where Mid Ohio is.
There was more yellow flag than racing. Mustang drivers.. don't know how to not crash.
You weren’t watching then
@@jimccc9467 you’re right, I was on the other screen looking up car parts.
Green cars all crashing lmao

Absolutely. This "series" is a bunch of garbage drivers in boring cars

I don’t think “doored” , I think ran out of talent is more like it.
