Doctor (anaesthetist/emergency med) checking in. We don’t care what blood type your ID says you are, we’re still going to test it before giving you blood

The battery packs

Interesting read, I’ll have to go through it a few times I think. But one thing stood out...

Crash was at Adenaeur Forst which is an awkward braking zone. If you listen to the audio and watch the video real slow, he was definitely braking before the rear wheels locked up

ABS failure without a question. Only thing that’ll cause the rear wheels to lock up under braking

Well, there are certain realities in motorsports, it sucks but it's always been this way. Motorsport is not inclusionist, it's the other way around, those with money go places - and if you have talent to boot, then even better.

Then I suggest that instead of forming an opinion based on a paragraph on Wikipedia that you actually read literature for yourself, because there is a lot of research that differs from the conclusion that Solomon reached '64 and Cirillo reached in '68. So next time, broaden your research

Next time don't post data from 1964

I honestly have no idea if they carry something else to combat radar guided threats. My knowledge on commercial aircraft countermeasures is next to non-existent, so to me, the only practical solution would be chaff.

I believe they use MUSIC, an infra red countermeasure system using lasers. Some countries were threatening to ground El Al's planes if they equiped them with flares

At least it's not the worst genre to use Euro in it. Try listening to Eurobeat *shudder* To this day, the only flaw with Initial D

Didn't everyone complain when the GE Impreza was a hatch...?

USF1. All they did was send press releases and sell toasters

An owner I know in the UK managed to get Porsche to lend him a Carrera 4S till they repair it which isn't bad I guess, but considering he's well one of the more well known owners and a long time customer, I find it ssurprising that he needed to make a scene in their showroom to get that.

Isn't this just 'motorsports' hybrid since more than just F1 cars run this tech?

Wiki is trolling, Nissan never did that. The wastegate got jammed.

Random plug, for those interested in the fineries of Le Mans, read the Art of the Le Mans Race Car: 90 years of Speed by Stuart Codling.

More than 1000hp (because Toyota's engine making 520hp is jokes) for 17 seconds around Le Mans, maybe more if they go for the 8MJ system. At testing at Paul Richard, people have already commented that the TS040's acceleration is crazy

''No, motorsports and product strategy are two separate business functions."

I'm so infuriated right now about the whole TUSCC thing, they managed to f*ck up one of the most significant endurance races in NA.
