>>157602553updates?
>>157602596>>157602618Classic 911 front wheel to wheel contact. You can see the headlights on the outside hop. The bodywork up front isn't enough to keep the front wheel protected from a modern side to side contact.
>>157602670Too much shit all over the back straight, it'll never get cleaned.
>>157602636>front bodywork and McPherson suspension compley missing. Classic. I'm not throwing shade on the 911, it's just a risk of the weight saving design. Mustang Dark Horse cars loose front wheels because of the McPherson design, but their bodywork is a little bit more stout.
>>157602699It's been a ton of yellow anyway. What's the point, really?Still love Interlagos.
Naturally, Indycar is delayed

>>157604183That track is so fucking based, I need to see whatever "the big race" is there. My primary concern is to see a race there and the "best" race I can see of Brazilian series.Think about it like you were planning a 2-3 weeks in the USA and wanted to see IndyCar and NASCAR or IndyCar and IMSA or IndyCar and SRO. My big concern is seeing the biggest race at El Zonda I can while maximizing my expenses while on the continent. I'm willing to plan this 2-3 years out. My Spanish is roughly that of a 5 y/o kek

Today I learnedThe WEC logo backwards says JEW and I had to stand with the word JEW on my chest in the mirrorAlso Texan chicks aren't as fat as I had thought, however the sample I encountered could be biased since COTA in 97° F weather would probably kill the big ones.Alpine and Peugeot refuse to sell merch to anyone not currently in FranceAlpine will transform from a largely forgotten team to being actively hated next year when they become BYD.

Breaking News. Josh Pierson to race in Indycar 2027 season, team TBA.
>>157609341I wonder what happens to all the DW12s in 2028, if they could put a crate engine in them and give us Indycar ARCA.
>>157609494Aussie Supercars uses their old cars for their feeder series. use the DW12 for that.
>>157609410Well CART kicked out a guy with 2 Indy Lights wins so he went to the IRL...I think in general you don't tend to hear about the guys who didn't get licensed and this is a unique case of someone that appeared to be a turboshitter buying a full season ride right from the start rather than just appearing on the Dale Coyne mid-season revolving door program, you only see the dogshit ones that did and maybe get their license pulled later.
so the "Josh Pierson Rule" lasted what, 2-3 days?
Xfinity has begun.

The NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour at Oswego is coming uphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4axmpVGJqHs
>>157609877I mean, they'll black flag cars if they are too slow at Indy, it happened to Jean Alesi and Simona de Silvestro one year (shitty Lotus engine) and most recently Colton Herta (practice crash and the backup car was shit). but they have never post-Split stopped a team from signing a shit driver.
>sting ray
if they let Pierson into IndyCar with 1 win, that is the standard. one IndyNXT win and a bunch of money. the NXT championship means nothing.

>>157618221Like Brazil bro said, there are three separate races, but they have a tire and push to pass (called boost) allocation that covers all three. By having the races so short, you basically have all the insanity of the beginning and end of a race without the "saving the car and just keeping up the pace" part in the middle.

ngl i'm really not liking this fear of wet racing that most racing series have developed over the last few yearsgive it a few more years and any raindrop will cause a red flag like on ovals
>>157623141crashes cost money, smal indie teams, please understand
>>157623141>>157623126They have wet tires, but the track is drying and there won't be any more rain, so there's no need for them and everyone would have to pit to get rid of them. They are just using the cars the dry the last bit off the track instead of having a situation like we had in NXT this morning where there is a yellow before most cars cross the start line.

>>157624636>>157624657Spa was a great race this year, as usual. The problem here is this atrocious track, really hard to have a good race unless it rains.
>>157624657Spa was great, the last hour was really intense.
>>157624657>wasn't spa a snoozefest with half the race being FCY?Nah, BMW ran away at the front, but Spa was 6 hours of all out insanely with great battles all over the place the entire time.
>>157624767>>157624691>>157624686nvm I was confusing with ELMS. Last race was a fcy snoozefest and was at Spa.
>>157624818Yeah, that was a snoozefest. Not as bad as the Michelin Cup race the day before that had almost no green flag racing, at least. I was at both races and there was a lot less action at the ELMS race. The LMP2 engine sounds made up for it at least, absolutely divine sound.
>>157622017RIP you
>poojoe
Aren't all of these cars notoriously hard to drive compared to LMPs? I remember articles about the Cadillac and the Porsche and how they drove funky.
RAIN IN 5
>>157625056they are hard to drive and hard to managethere is a reason why there is only one 'private' car
>>157625056Keeting said his time in the 963 was really challenging and not very much fun. He also said he probably wouldn't do it again. I think he was mostly talking about handling and braking, but I'm sure the workload is huge too. The steering wheel looks like it has more switches than an F-16 cockpit.

Is there any sport that asks more of it's fans than endurance racing? The only thing I can think of is rally. I mean, I've never had to math out my watter supply for a sports car endurance race, but still.

Almost a podium for Aston, i hope they finally make progress on that car.

>>157627692I mean, that's great, but that was a retarded call. It's so marginal. It's clear that was a racing incident.The human eye could never have caught that and that is all the lollypop guy had.I'm a huge Astonfag, btw, but that's ref car.
Ferrari International Assistance confirmed.It's a cool car, but fuck, it's no wonder Roger quit.
>>157627784They won't ever be lenient with pit lane infringements, even if it was by a milimiter. It's harsh but it's the rules.
>>157627811Schizo
rate the racepersonally I thought it was pretty good despite the slow start
>>157627932Considering COTA is a shit circuit, it wasn't that bad. There were great fights after the SCs and the last one ending with 45 minutes to go was perfect. If it wasn't for the SCs it would be a borefest after an hour due to the shit circuit.
Least amount of interest I've had in NASCAR since before I got into it as a kid. There's such a massive manufacturer imbalance it's boring to watch. I don't care what happens this year, but they absolutely have to fix this car in the offseason, and literally everything to do so should be on the table. Next summer a bunch of new friends are gonna show up after Days of Thunder and you better be delivering fun racing. Cost shouldn't even be an issue, this is such a massive opportunity to grow the sport you gotta fix this piece of shit car.
>be at COTA>half of the track is closed down due to renovations>entire far half of track is denied to any spectators.
>>157629190First of all, Days of Thunder 2 is coming out 2028, not 2027, I don't know how this incorrect date keeps showing up.Now, as to the state of racing: I see two main problems. One is manufacturer-related the other is team-related. On the manufacturer side, it is clear the Chevy does not care about NASCAR. Personally, if I were Brian France and interested in doing something other than denigrating our team owners, I'd tell Chevy to put up or shut up. Start trying to compete, or we'll run you out and replace you with a manufacturer that will. This may be an empty threat, the auto industry is in a slow-burning crisis nobody may be interested in jumping into the much-diminished niche of NASCAR. The dirty truth is that manufacturers aren't the real problem, though. As you will notice, only the Gibbs and 23XI Toyotas run well. Legacy continues to suck dick, without reprieve. As our resident conspiracists have noted, 23XI was party to the anti-trust suit, so maybe that explains their advantage. However, I expect Gibbs is just doing some good old-fashioned cheating, because Spire, a historically dogshit team, suddenly outperformed all other Chevys and won or contended for several races this year after Chris Gabehart allegedly stole Gibbs' data when he jumped ship to Spire. Penske is the other team suddenly competitive, which you will again notice is on-brand for them, after sucking hind tit for the first half of the season, the whole team suddenly comes alive and starts racing well.
>>157629190>new friends are gonna show up after Days of ThunderYaaaay more women and fags are going to watch! Guess who Sea Org Tom's female co-star will be?>"team owner and engineer" i.e. woke female empowerment slopHope it fails tremendously and the shitbox car bores them off.
>>157630402>Yaaaay more women and fags are going to watchKids. Kids are going to get interested in NASCAR again because there's going to be a fuckhuge family friendly NASCAR "Can't Bruise the Cruise" blockbuster. NASCAR's fanbase is embarrassingly old. The kids who grew up on Dale Jr are like 40 now. Carson Hocevar is a try hard and not it. There's no young juice in the sport and Tom is going to create it for us.Again, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the sport to blow up. But this only happens if the product is actually entertaining, and it is currently not.
>>157630427>Tom is going to create it for us.Create what? Flagrantly use things like feminism and female empowerment just to try to sell tickets. Is that how low the bar is for ASSCAR? Take that bullshit and fuck off. Don't reply to me with any more ChatGPT nonsense.
>>157630467>Flagrantly use things like feminism and female empowerment just to try to sell ticketsNot going to happen. Tom wouldn't insult us with girlboss slop. Hathaway will be a supporting character for Cole, that's it.
>>157629774Kyle would be having a better season with a few more wins if he stopped self sabotaging. Hes lost what, 3 or 4 possible wins crashing himself out? Either way its also clear that GM is more focused on F1 right now. They're probably waiting for somebody to leak shit to them instead of trying to do things themselves.
>>157627734Fuuuck did they miss again? They were robbed at RA. Is it the same car and crew in WEC?
its rally week again my negroes
WRC, EuroRX and ELMS this week. Too much racism going on. Hard to pick which to sacrifice.
Good morning lads, I love sportscar racing
bit late, but extremely appropriate
Kalle left WRC because the series went to shit and he'd rather do random bullcrap instead of wasting his time on a husk of what rally was when his father competed.

>>157632145Suzuka 1000km
>>157630637What else do they need? Surely Spire's purloined data was satisfactory?
>>157630427I will not take this BAMF slander. I like the punk because he's an unapologetic asshole who's out for himself. Ross could have been that, but got his head bitten off by Chevy and was never the same. Also excited for Heim, hope he does well.
Tired of reading this gay ass Gabehart cope when Spire's cars are 12th, 13th, and 19th in points and that's only because you get a gorillion points from a plate track or wacky pit strategy win, otherwise they've roughly moved from a top 20ish team to a top 15ish team and that wouldn't be the case if guys like Bowman and Berry weren't individually non-entities this year. Trackhouse is the only team they've really jumped on performance and they've maybe caught up to Roush and Trackhouse has been straight up fucking crap.>hey what they should do is threaten the manufacturer with half the cars in the field to fuck off because I'm jealous of F1Typical amazing jeet corporate decision makingNASCAR is not supposed to be a factory team sport and all decisions should be made to discourage Toyota pumping money into one team's competitiveness at the expense of 30 other cars rather than coping everyone should be feeding their bank accounts directly into France family associated businesses.
Also in general classic brownoid post>no saar the BoP is godly like cow shit, is the competitors that are wrong saarEvery fucking time if one team wins in a real series it's shit because there's no performance balancing to punish them, but if one manufacturer dominates a series WITH performance balancing? Well uh nobody else is trying they deserve it ;^)Anyways the F1 race sucked, the IndyCar race sucked, the Cup race sucked and you suck.

>>157630427a 65 year old man is not going to catch kids' attention. a new Cars movie would do more to get kids to care about NASCAR than a new Days of Thunder.
>>157637858This desu. Days of Thunder 2 is trying to hit the same market segments as Top Gun 2: Gen Xers looking to recapture their glory days, Millenials who haven't gotten over the 80's nostalgia craze, and the high school/college age guys who always think that shit's cool. I note that the last segment I listed is also likeliest to be Hocevar fans.
>>157637858I watched Days of Thunder for the first time when I was 10 because it was about cool race cars and there was adult stuff like swearing and sex scenes.
