If the BOP remains unchanged, the Fords will run away with it again. Their advantage wasn’t in outright speed, but in the corners and Sebring has more of those than Daytona does.

This definitely wasn’t a very good showing by Continental Tires. DPi, LMP2 and GTD deserve better.
The BMW is new, so I expect it to get better.
Ford won the race last year too. So... no.
The DPis run with restrictions as well though. Unrestricted, those Cadillacs would be incredibly quick, the Acuras and Nissan as well. The Mazda... they’d probably be at least a bit quicker... maybe?
He also had to swerve to avoid a pelican...
No slicks in Formula E. It would be far too much like an actual racing series then.
He oversteered. If he’d lacked downforce, he would’ve understeered. It looks like he just got a bit too aggressive with the ‘go’ pedal.
The 911's, even with the engine in the middle now, are still the class of the field on a wet track.
It looks like Ganassi got one over on BOP again. Last time they did they got hammered by the BOP gods for the rest of the season, so I wonder how much they’re risking by suddenly being in a class of their own on race day. It isn’t as big a difference this time as it was a Le Mans a couple of years ago, but the…
Now we just need to wait, watch and see if this zombie-sat starts feasting on it’s neighbors’ CPUs.
Team Penske specifically wanted Ricky on the team and not only is it a bigger deal ( and probably a bigger paycheck ) to drive for Roger than for Wayne Taylor Racing or any other American racing team, it could also potentially open some doors for Ricky to drive for Penske in Indycar or NASCAR or even Aussie Supercars.…
Cadillac is still there and is probably still the team to beat.
It’s like they saw the old, widely hated, Columbus Crew Logo and went: “Yeah... That’s what we need!”
No. It’s a gd Wars of the Roses reference, which Game of Thrones is partly inspired by.
The man in the lighthouse pic isn’t wearing pants ( they’re on the rock beside him ). This is easy to miss at first glance, but quickly becomes the single most important part of the image. That’s because he clearly shaves his legs, but not anything on his head. I want to meet that guy and ask him: why?
Ok. People don’t cross shop a Z06 with a 911 Turbo.
Bet you aren’t even invited to parties.
A drag race leans pretty heavily in the 911s favor, what with the weight distribution and the all-wheel-drive and all. Not to mention the 911 Turbo costs more than twice what a Z06 does.
Reading the post above would indicate that this was an auction to benefit a charitable cause; The Steven Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, to be precise; and the very inflated price of this car is entirely to that organizations benefit.
