>Owen-Jones revealed that the distance that the cars will have to cover in zero-emissions mode could be increased in future years. LMP1 cars will also have to cross the finish the race only using electrical power.
haha wat
>New caps will be placed on development in the name of cost reduction. The manufacturers will not be allowed to develop all areas of the car between seasons.
>Instead their will be a system, akin to the former token arrangement employed for engines in Formula 1, that will allow a set amount of development by each manufacturer.
>The number of wind tunnel hours allowed to each manufacturer per calendar year will be reduced from the current 900 to 600.
will this bring new manufacturers?
with only 2 teams, it's a joke series.
no, bykolles doesn't count.
>Landon wrecked in practice
>>76580999
The rules seems sensible and were made with more than Toyota, Porsche, and Peugeot at the table. They want to and need to attract more manufacturers so they'll be simplifying some aspects. It says "plans to" about the meme proposals of finishing under electric power the the first kilometer out of pits under electric. Those more outlandish specs will probably be walked back or abandoned all together. I think they could stand a chance to attract another manufacturer but for the fans it could be a two car field in P1 until 2020/1.
>Other big changes have been outlined, to reduce the cost for the manufacturers. Teams will only be able to homologate a single body kit for each season, with simpler aero under the cars and small variable aero points to enable them to be adaptable for low-downforce circuits like Le Mans. There will be active aerodynamic front and rear wings, with small variable 'clips' behind the front splitter. The cars will also continue to feature two eight-megajoule hybrid systems – as they do now – and only be allowed two gearbox units.
The real thing to keep an eye on this race is how P1s and P2s will navigate traffic with P2s reaching faster times than P1-H on the Mulsanne or runup to Indianapolis. I could see some heavy wrecks from gentleman P2 drivers unable to handle the power.
Is ARCA going to be televised live?

>potential indy parking lot race tennessee titans nissan stadium parking lot in 2019
wew. is nissan going to be the third manufacturer we hear so much about?
>>76601728
That would be sweet. Nashville got cucked by Kentucky when they built that track to attract cup. An indy race downtown would do well there. And people would be much more understanding then somewhere like Baltimore was.
>>76601115
Surprising considering his dad is an executive with both the sponsor and race team

Who's ready for TRUCKS AT GATEWAY tonight?
Remember the autism last year?
Missed the post race earlier. How mad was Kyle? Him and Brad have a long history.
>>76606304
I don't think he did an interview
I just went through today's race results. Where the fuck was Bubba...why wasn't he entered in this race?
>>76606783
6 car has suspended operations for this season as Bubba has taken over for a few weeks in 43 in Cup.
>>76606783
The 6 team has been withdrawn due to lack of funding and sponsors AKA Jack Roush is still out of touch with reality. Bubba is driving the 43 till Amirola is cleared to return back.
>>76606812
>>76606842
Holy hell how can they not get the only black dude in the sport a sponsor? That sucks man...esp cuz the 43 deal is just temporary. He was having a good year too. That fucking sucks.
>>76606941
Roush still thinks he can charge top level sposnorship dosh. Bubba is backed by Ford and Coca Cola (And Coke bailed him out running a Mello Yello relaunch scheme one week) but still couldn't get anything because no one wanted to pay Cup prices for Xfinity. Even JR Motorsports and JGR charge way less in Xfinity than Roush does, apparently.
Now that Wood Bros are affiliated with Penske, I could totally see them starting a 2nd team for Bubba like FRR did for Jones. Bubba is a marketable dude...that RFR couldn't get him a sponsor is absurd.
>>76607066
your half right
What will happen is Penske opens a 3rd team for Blaney and Bubba goes to Wood Bros next year
>>76607121
Silly season has Menard to the Wood Bros next year as his RCR contract is up and he doesn't want to re-sign, Ty Dillon will move to running the 27 (Or 33) and maybe Bubba to the 13. Shit's going to be messy. Especially the rumor that the 5 and 10 might either be shut down or sold to other teams.
>>76607289
There's no way the Wood Bros would go with muh nards
They'll look for young talent
Menard brings a shit ton of money to the team. That's really it. I could see him at RFR since he comes with guaranteed sponsorship. But yeah, I just can't see the Wood Bros starting a 2nd team just to be a cash cow. I think they're more interested in performance.
What does /sp/ think about the improved production category?
