Quick correction Erik, Ferrari actually did leave F1, though briefly, in 1969. They weren’t happy with their car, so they stomped away to focus on the 312P, but when that too was showing signs of poor reliability, they came back reluctantly.

Yup, first time in any Formula or open wheel

Sadly yes, so expect them to be putting around by the time we get to Le Mans.....

Came here to say this. Hearing people cry they didn’t cross the line a fraction of a second together made the race boring haven’t delved too deep into endurance racing history.

Cadillac, Acura, and Mazda are factory backed, all others are basically privateer teams. Mazda is still being Mazda, even with legendary Joest, and Acura is showing speed, but we can’t say they are a legitimate threat to Cadillac out of the gate just yet, but knowing Penske, he’s got what it takes to correct the…

There’s racing series that already cover that, like spec Miata and NASCAR. Whats tge point of running 24 hours to be within seconds, when a 2hr race would result the same. Endurance racing is about covering as great a distance while attempting to keep the car together, and finding the best balance of power and fuel…

Was there, don’t care. Cadillac is becoming the Mercedes of WTSCS. How about Jackie Chan racing and United Autosport swapping 4th place for the last 3 hours. In the end, JCR had to make one more pit stop. My man Bruno Senna finished a respectable 4th in a car Zak Brown said he was praying for a top 5 or 10 finish.…

“It also is solely responsible for the strongest era of competition in endurance racing history.”

I learned something today, I only thought accidents showed up. I know having a Ferrari worked on by anybody else other then a dealer, or not having all the service records makes it worthless.

Shit happens, what exactly dimished the value?

There’s been quite a different set of rules compared to the 80's and 90's. Back then they could have a qualify and a race engine, they could put as many power units in them all season long. Mercedes and Ferrari have been around long enough to work with the limited amounts of power units, even Renault showed some…

My two aunts and uncles do that with their BMW’s, trade in every 36, and no worries about maintenance, but I guess I’m more of a materialistic person, I’d prefer to have a product from my money then a service.

Because logic (or lack there of), and these are the same people who complain theres no jobs in America, and that millenials think their entitled to free things. Sadly to many, status is more imoortant than long term financial savings.

I’ve dodged the new car game for as long as I could. I got close in 06' looking at a V6 Eclipse (thank god I didn’t go through with it) affter the saleaman said I was looking at about 425/mo., I did your said photo. I finally got myself into a position where I could afford a sporty hatch, and after much searching, and…

I had a chance to meet Dan Gurney at Laguna back in 2010. Sadly, we were being pushed through by his manager? Whatever she was, she was very rude. That being said, he was light on his speaking, and very cordial, and man for being 79 at the time, he didn’t look it, even my wife said he was quite handsome. He was an…

It’s becoming current theme, should a vehicle operate enough while staying original, and not have a purpose beyond sitting in a museum, theres no reason to make it better then factory. One of the best pieces in the Revs collection is their unrestored “as is from Spa 1971” Porsche 917K. At first I wasn’t on board with…

Well, if you’re looking for luxury in a SUV, Land Rover is all over that, and we have seen these things outperform American SUV’s time and again, but as a person who worked on a few (mid 2000's and up), there’s a reason you see people lease them and dump after it’s up, along with these one owner lots filled with…

I’ve known the guy for a better part of 10 years, he’s not one to make up stories. We’ve seen this with american cars during the Malaise era, essentially keep the line rolling, it’s final destination will fix it. 

Never understood the allure of Land Rovers. I was speakibg with a restoration specialist at a museum in Naples, and before that, he worked at a Porsche/Land Rover dealer. One day they were unloading them, and the service manager told him that the truck driver complained of one running very rough, so they bring it in,…

Thank you, came here yo say this
