Thats right, Tomorrow at 8am central the greatest automotive endurance event in the universe starts.

Audi vs Porsche vs Toyota. At 200+ mph. On a track of largely public roads.

Fox sports 1, FS 2, and Fox GO all should have coverage on and off for the race. You might have to bounce around between all 3 to catch it all.

Online: Audi.com, click on "Audisport" in lower right corner. Porsche.com/usa. Click on "events and racing", then "motorsports".

www.fiawec. www.lemans-tv.com. Or check your favorite app store for: 24hlemans.

Speed feast. Enjoy.

Already cleaned out my DVR for recording all that's being broadcast including the F1 race too. Once I'm home from work in the Sunday and Monday mornings I'll settle in and watch an hour or two before I sleep for work again. Last year they didn't have cable in the hospital...

First time since college that I'm watching the race without my dad. But I know he's looking down as I celebrate my first Father's Day on the same weekend his grandson was born. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I love the protoype stuff, but Im more interested in watching the "real" cars racing and for now the Ferrari is Top Dog but the Ford GT & Porsche 911 are close behind.... Looking at Porsches entries, I dont see any Cayman's out there. Are they being stubborn and not putting the better chassis in there to protect their brand??

Audi has great coverage. Commentary. History. Like a real sports show. Porsche was just view in a car. Dawn is dawning now

WOW! The lead Toyota died in the last five minutes allowing the #2 Porsche to take the win. Just crazy.

Unbelievable.

That was wild. The #5 could not finish the last lap so it goes unclassified, and that puts Audi in the third spot of the podium after a miserable race for them.

That's why it's not called the 23 hours 50 minutes of Le Mans ...
