Will Cooper MacNeil crash his Merc AMG halfway through the race again like he did in Daytona?

Some of the tracks aren't built to get safety vehicles there as efficiently without the use of a FCY.

This qualifying format is boring in nascar. All the drivers wait until the end of the session. The first half is just cringeworthy commentary from DW.

>>74734586
>who needs to run in lower series to boost his ego.

Nigger scored 2 victories in his first full time season, and hasn't gone a season without at least one victory. He's currently over 50% for top 10 finishes in cup races, and over 70% in Xfinity races. He's only 32 years old, and already has 38 victories in cup, and probably has at least another 10 years of racing left, if he's lucky.

I don't think his ego is an issue at all, because the dude can drive like a beast, even though he does act like a douche from time to time.
>>
>>74724114
>>74724309

The GT3 class (LM GTE in IMSA) bans all wheel drive systems. Even Audi's GT3 car doesn't have quattro. It's done for reducing the cost for the teams (reduce mechanical complexity) and the FIA wants AWD to be a rally thing, outside of LMP1.

>>74738201
>there's no reason for him to be in trucks

Sure there is, because trucks are different from Xfinity cars, and cup cars, and as a race car driver, you want to race as much as possible...unless you're fucked contractually like the F1 drivers. Part of the reason cup drivers run those lower tier races is because it allows them to run multiple races a week without having to travel to do it.

Hell, a lot of those guys still run dirt races.
>>
>>74739362
Moonlighting in a Dirt series is much different that racing in a feeder series for cup. It's absolutely absurd the amount of racing he's done in the past in the past in the lower series.

It's sad you kids don't understand what GT3 is. Do you know that when the FIA GT3 championship started they used to give a trophy to the highest finishing car for every manufacturer? Do you know why? Because it's multiple spec series in one race. Every car from one manufacturer is exactly the same, it's popular because the teams don't have to worry about building or developing their own cars, they can just buy a car and run it with the knowledge that nobody can make their car faster like a spec series, but because one manufacturer doesn't have to support all the cars it's easier for them to get involved.

The track record at Daytona is still 2.5s faster than the best lap these cars have run, and that record is from before they shortened the chicane, widened the curbs, and leveled and repaved the entire track. Around Sebring they are like 4 seconds per lap slower than the same cars testing on Dunlop tires for ELMS and WEC and 5 seconds off the lap record.

>Audi develops an all new clean sheet engine then throws a giant stack of cash at it and gives it direct injection when nothing has direct injection for extra measure

Chrysler and Cadillac (eventually) had really good chassis but they were absolutely fucked sideways when it came to power and fuel efficiency.

>>74751002
To be fair, minus the direction injection inclusion, what should they have derived the engine from, exactly?

Kek. I meant pick two, rather.
900 hp on a 2.3 5 cylinder is possible, but the power band would have to be shit to keep the bottom end from kabooming.
>>
>>74751251
They weren't really any more advanced than the BMWs in terms of chassis design, just they had actually been optimized for the rule changes for that season instead of just hacking the car up to pass tech. The balance of the BMWs was so utterly fucked in 2000, I swear they were sideways in every corner.
>>
So did SVG really just drove the wheels of the Merc and then handed it over to Pooper who then retired the car shortly after?

>Doubt [x]

Do you guys remember when BMW was competitive?
Weren't those good times?

>>74751380
the r8 was only running 550 hp why do you think the engine would need 900?
