Sage Karam just got done speaking here at IndyCar Media Day, and he announced that he will be running the remainder of the WeatherTech Series in a Chip Ganassi Lexus GTD entry beginning with Laguna Seca. Sage will also be running in the 100th Indy 500 this year as his only IndyCar race (so far)

NHRA is switching to EFI in Pro Stock, which means new front ends, among other things. Most P/S teams are barely clinging on so let's make them spend a bunch of money!

go3 posted:people who give Sage Karam a ride in tyool 2016 I dunno, he was fast and hosed up a lot. On the sportscar side, he was super good at Sebring a while ago in the DPs. The worst part about Karam were the jackasses who breathlessly supported him as the second coming of racecar jesus or someshit, but thankfully most of them are gone these days. A GTD ride with a veteran teammate seems like a good fit for him right now. He's certainly no worse than a lot of the richguy jaggoffs that keep GTD around.

Good news: Toyota have confirmed Kamui Kobyashi for their LMP1 program. Better news: Toyota are running a white/red car instead of the stupid faux-Peugeot livery

Because we have such a shortage of white, red and black LMP1 factory cars right now. Porsche better run in red this year.

It's nobody's fault that both Japan and Germany's racing colors are white. What we really need is some French and American prototypes in, to add some blue to the mix.

Having 53 cars on 3.5 miles and highbanks of Daytona or 3.7 miles with the bumps of Sebring for 24 hours is stupid and just great. A similar shot of the PC winner at the end looking tore up:

Casey Atwood. Joey Logano. Sage Karam can wind up like one of them- either a washout or a success after regrouping somewhat and finding a new gear. I get that Atwood got a bit of a bum deal from Evernham in the end, but both of those two stick out as getting hype like Karam.

I do remember Peter Kox ramming a kangaroo 2 years ago within the first hour. He wasn't too happy about that.

12hrs of Bathurst staring now, http://bathurst12hour.com.au/stream-int or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHCqM5k48O8 I'm not sure if I respect the drivers or the commentary crew more by now. They have an endurance race of their own by doing all of them globally, Hindhaugh probably doesn't have a biological clock anymore. geonetix fucked around with this message at 19:54 on Feb 6, 2016 |
