Sad to hear. Remember a special years ago documenting his efforts. He had a unique idea using multiple camshafts rotating in opposite directions to neutralize the torque generated by rotation for and hence balance rider lean in effort in each direction. We need more minds who think in Unique ways and are brave enough…

Sorry man. Aero efficiency works for handling not just the straights. It helps with load distribution, lateral loading, suspension set-up, tire wear, fuel efficiency, cooling, reducing mechanical stress, reducing engine load... it’s not about simply putting a gaping hole in a shape that already existed, its about…

Yeh man. Who cares what others think. If you enjoy it then just enjoy it. Don’t feel self conscious about it. It’s very unique and rare in its own regard. It’s worth keeping your head up about and appreciating it for what it is.

No. Sorry. I have a full understanding of how this race series works as well as business and public perception. In this day and age the ICE has been nearly optimized for years. Aerodynamics and Cooling win races, especially in horsepower restricted races and especially in horse power restricted endurance races. All of…

Fantastic way to reach multiple demographics and ispire drivers and fans alike. This is a good win win for everyone involved. Godspeed Mr. McQuarrie. We’ll all be rooting for you. Enjoy the ride.

I’m sorry. I’m obviously doing a horrendous job at explaining my point. Many responses. The architecture of the car, aspect ratios, lines, etc are based on a Corvette - they need to look the same. The geometry is what it is. Pick up points etc can be changed but the limits are defined by the geometry and proportions…

Yeh. Chevy would just need to take 400 of them. Modify them just enough for street use. Then sell them at a tremendous loss just like Ford has done. I’m not knocking the Ford GT nor am I my Engineering Brethren. It’s a tremendous feat of Engineering but it doesn’t belong in the GTE / GT2 class. The other cars on this…

Yeh. I know. I’m a sucker for trying to do the best I can honestly. Unfortunately it means more to me than winning. Cheating only handicaps the honest people... but I’d rather lose honestly ever day than win one day by cheating. It’d be easier to forgive old Rowdy if he was more humble - this all happened about the…

I know it was Nation Wide but Ole Rowdy was dominating Sprint cup at the time then after this... not so much till last year. Check the stats. Something changed there.

It’s illegal if you demonstrate that your engine is down on power and NASCAR permits a larger restrictor plate to level you out with the field. Yep. Toyota and Joe Gibbs racing did that. Toyota had a larger restrictor plate because they were new and “down on power.” Turns out it was just magnets behind the gas pedal…

Suspension geometries are different for most if not all GT cars. I agree the Ford is an awesome car, it’s just not in the right class. If Chevy tool their Daytona Prototype, modified 400 of them for street use and sold them at a loss just to homoligate it and get it into the GT class, I’d say the same. GT cars are…

Only the chassis is the same?!? Give me a break. Even if only thr chasis, that’s 99% of the car. I present the Corvette Daytona Prototype. Chevy sells 400 at a major loss to homoligate them for the GT class and they’ll have done the same Ford has done.

Nothing in common?!? Same geometry, architecture, engine lay out, Engine placement... I could go on and on. Again. All Chevy has to to do to match Ford is sell 400 copies of it’s Corvette Daytona Prototype to homoligate it and wallah... no one who knows any better will buy the PR stunt. I present to you the new…

To be honest, I am an idiot sometimes. If one doesn’t know the difference between a street car modidied for racing and a car built strictly with racing geometries and architecture then... I present to you the new Corvette GT car for Lemans. All they have to do is sell 400 of them at a tremendous loss to homoligate…

Turn / track that took the most nerve to execute with proper race pace, regardless of how good the car was dialed in? I’d love to know.

Best execution on intended function of any automobile to date: 458 / 458 speciale. Strikes the best balance between feel, performance, and looks. An epic and elegent send off to the application of a Mid Engine NA Ferrari V8. Bellissimo. Molto Elegante.

This is sad all the way around. Couldn’t imagine having that type of relationship with a family member. Couldn’t imagine not being able to use my own name. It’s only money. Not worth destroying relationships over, especially family. Senior had his Family involved with DEI for a reason, it was a family business; kids…

In the words of Churchill ~ Success is not final. Failure is not fatal. It is continuing that counts.

Weiner Mobile... you are the father!

+1. COTD... straight to the Weiners circle. He Braut it. He linked it all together.
