Like people would rather have easy DRS passes then none at all?

It's just as artificial.

It's not a ten lap sprint, it's an endurance race.

Yeah sure, most people would rather watch all the cars spread out on their own around the track than close together in a scrum where the lead has changed hands 5 times since the restart.....3 of those in one lap

Sureeeeee :thumbsup:

But then these same people with AD/HD :whistling: like to watch cars crawling under safety car for 30 mins per every crash instead of racing that actually continues at full speed except for the virtual speed limited zone.

The way IMSA tends to often "manufacture" close finishes, it may be in principle good racing but it feels so fake. I don't get excited by it.

Purism is boring,

Nothing about this race has been either fake or boring, thankfully.

Losing your rear view mirror on lap 1 turn 1 as a GTD must be a bitch.
