You're right. Mazda's are poo poo actually, haven't innovated in decades.

orange juche posted:If they were using even a V6 engine they would have a better shot. Cranking 40 psi of boost through a 2 liter 4 banger does not bode well for it surviving in an endurance environment. This is the part that always confuses me. I get that many of their production cars use a 4 cylinder but it just doesn't seem like a great idea for this kind of race car. Then again I'm no expert and there are some crazy 4 cylinder cars in other series. I just want Mazda to win.

Bentley's make such good GT3 cars.  It's just a shame I rarely see them do well except for Bathurst.

What I liked about the Nismo broadcasts was that I could watch it the next day because catching it live is pretty much impossible for me so even a reddit stream link won't be worth it. It's a bummer because Okayama races are always good too.

I guess the same Nismo TV folks will be part of the program and they're going to have membership levels as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkKNNDMPulE They say they're working on getting Super GT on still but I don't see it happening if it hasn't by now.

Also wild that he gets no points since he fell out of the top 8. That's gotta be a big bummer for him. Does formula 1 have mandatory tire changes as well?

Todays VLN race was a good one. Also rainy and actually competitive to the last lap which is fun to watch. There's some racing going on at VIR here in the ol' USA. GT4, TCR, and Blancpain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eCpBWRUK24

Cygni posted:Pruett with a brutal article about the state of WEC, IMSA, ACO, and even appearances by NASCAR and IndyCar. The short of it is that it's a mess at the moment. Manufacturers don't agree on what sort of hybrid system to use, series are waffling back and forth trying to appease everybody, and Ford taking their toys and pouting. Super GT is still pretty cool.

I think the Super GT mother chassis is for cars racing under the JAF specs not the FIA GT3 specs so they build around the spec chassis and I think they can use the JAF spec engine too? That's how you get the Evora and Prius in the mix but those use different engines.

Super Taikyu's 24 hour race at Fuji speedway is going on right now. Where else are you getting a 24 hour race with gt4 GTR's mixed in with 86's and Honda Fit's and Mazda 3's? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SU-letsf0Ds At one of the races a few years ago one of the groups running a WRX had an accident and used the door from one of their team members cars in the parking lot to get back in.

It's not exactly widely known but they've been smart about marketing it making it free to watch on YouTube and with good production value at that. They have a bunch of live onboards while Super GT is still strugging to figure it out somehow?
