Good news: the new class the Corvette's are in has more competition.

Bad news: the new class the Corvette's are in has more competition.

Corevette Racing is running the same two cars that met last year's GTLM specification, but they've had to decontent them to meet the GTD Pro regulations. Thus, the cars are unbalanced compared to the rest of the class, which are all true GT3 cars.

The #4 car has gotten tagged at least twice and is currently in the middle of a long pit stop.

It left the pit stall and then stopped. Team members pushing it back.

Now the engine cover is coming off and now it's going behind the wall.

The Acura versus Cadillac battle continues in DPi, with two of each marque left on the lead lap. In GTD Pro, it was Porsche versus Ferrari for most of the night, but now Lexus and McLaren have shown up.

The GTD Pro Porsches provided the entertainment in the last few minutes, beating on each other in a way that reminded me of the Corvette C7s at the Daytona finish in 2016—has it been six years already?

If I'm Chevrolet, I'm pleased with the 6th in class that the #3 car achieved. It's going to take some time to make the full adjustment from GTLM to GT3, and both cars looked really unbalanced on track. Nice job by Garcia, Taylor, and Catsburg.

Meanwhile, Helio's incredible 18 months continues—a driver who Penske Racing considered finished has now won two Rolexes and an Indy 500 in that period. It was striking that Meyer Shank Racing put that 48-year-old man in as their closer instead of one of their younger drivers.

They moved it around like crazy and some of it was only on the paid tier of Peacock. This, unfortunately, looks like the future.

Since I was previously paying for the IMSA portion of NBC Sports Gold, it was easy to cost-justify Peacock—at least to try it for a year. We'll see how I feel about this in 2023.
