Shunted the Corvette, depending on your point of view, and apparently the pay driver just gave the gently caress up and quit.

I'm guessing it's motortrend going after them this year, for the last few years i've been able to watch one youtube stream for the whole race.

You can use overnight electricity to make hydrogen and sell it at petrol stations.

Good morning, other speedfriends :comfyoot:

I managed to turn the screen off and fall asleep with just the audio commentary of TV2 playing on the soundbar, so I woke up around 5 very confused by not very much happening.

Car Guy Racing sounds like a team you'd come across in the iRacing bottom split.

They've never been particularly impressive in WEC for whatever reason.

Car Guy is run by a Japanese guy with money as a way to scratch his racing itch, but they also rent out their race cars and support staff for others. They also have legit simulators apparently, so I might investigate further later this year.

[Edit] also yeah MTek just has never gotten their way around the M8 the same way RLL has in the US.

LMP1 P3, car #3, got a 3 minute stop-and-go for tires rules violation and that'll likely have cost their podium.
What the gently caress can you do wrong about tires?

They have 15 sets, no more. If they run out, they're SoL.

Isn't Porsche #91 the only one that can win over the Porsche #92 in Endurance Superseason Championship? Pretty sure it is.

Also, someone up-thread was asking about Ferrari - seems like they knew what they had and didn't need to show off during qualifying (which is the excuse when race drivers don't end on pole position, of course).
