Make a new Le Mans class where cars must:
>not have a swapped engine but can have a modified engine with no hp limit
>have a manual transmission
>be street legal
>have a adjustable ground clearance that allows them to clear a typical speed bump
>>

what happens with that sort of thing is what alway happens with that sort of thing; the german car manufacturers say fuck off and it's dead in the water. happened the last time with the proposed hypercar class as well.

this thing would've fit the bill sans the engine since it was a merc v12

I'm a manual fan, but I can't hang with you there. I'd give you "must be shifted manually", but let them go with sequentials, semi-automatic torque converter transmissions etc. The single dry clutch is obsoleted for over-200hp applications
>>
>>28875264
why would a race car need adjustable suspension like that? why do force manufacturers to make a new manual transmission when they already have sequentials that make the car much faster? you do realize that these restrictions would probably put this class somewhere below touring cars, right?
>>

The idea isn't to make the fastest class but to make a class for supercars in the classic meaning of this word. Radical got from England to Nurburgring by itself and that's cool.

>you know what we need
>even more cars for the ultra wealthy
No. You have a childish mindset.
>>
>>28875835
We can make a similar catagory for cars under $150k
>>
>>28876353
sub $150k race cars already exist, just not in le mans. gr cup, mx5 cup, dark horse r, all under $150k and are pretty much stock. i don't think you know much about racing in general.
>>
>>28875264
just put speed bumps on the track
