drat, head on hit. Reminds me of Memo Gidley's shunt two years ago, though that was way worse.

so am I missing a good race? this loving militia thing happened at the wrong time and for whatever dumb reason I can't tear myself away from it

It was pretty alive earlier this morning, but the ESM car is poised to win unless something happens.

That was a bloody good race.

I'm completely unfamiliar with motorsport. I used to like F1, but now it sucks, I used to like the V8 Supercars which now sucks almost as much as F1, but this was a great race.

Is there a big GT3 league that I should be paying attention to?

Blancpain Endurance and Sprint series are the big ones. Pirelli World Challenge is also good, and IMSA runs a GT3 category.

We talked about this in IRC once and it was, and is, a good idea.

I'll definitely get it for the rest of the season. I used it for Le Mans last year and liked it.

Didn't something like this happen to them just a year or two ago or am I thinking of something else?

Yet another diesel VAG car caught cheating.

I vaguely recall an issue with breaching fuel flow rate limitations, but I could be totally wrong.

Engine wise yes, but they have considerably more downforce.

I'm so heartbroken for Toyota, but that's Le Mans. That's part of why this race is so legendary.

I really like LMP1, but I wouldn't complain if GT1 style rules came back.

I too am excited for IMSA next year. It's gonna be like quasi GTP.

The ESM cars cannot stay out of trouble, it seems.

I know I've defended LMP1 in the past, and I do love it, but I'd like GT1 style rules to come back.

The WEC race at Fuji is very good in case y'all were curious.

George Zimmer
Jun 28, 2008
They play WRC on TV in the US? News to me. They did a decent show on Speed back in the day.

George Zimmer

I stream it from FSGO and I don't think it's too bad. Video quality is typically excellent. They didn't bother with commercials during the last round at Fuji either.

End of an era for sure. Even when they steamrolled everybody else, they were still likeable. Wonder what Joest will do next.

Edit: semi beaten on the Joest question

Isn't it like just 30 more horsepower? And they're still locked into the stupid borderline homologated drivetrain.

I'm not sure to be honest. But I like your no AWD rule.
