Have you ever watched any of those old 1950s hot rod movies? Some of them are actually pretty cool.
Also, apparently, you guys have a gassers series, so I would recommend checking that out.
I personally prefer left and right turns, but I just love cars. I mean, look at some of these machines (when you get home) and tell me they aren't cool as hell.

Dude, seeing a race in person is unreal. It is more than a /sp/orting event. It's a genuine spectacle.
Also, that was kind of a crap race to see on TV, but that doesn't even matter because in person it's still amazing! That's why I'm going to DC, kek.
>They announced the death of Juha Miettinen at the race and lowered the US flags to half mast
Yeah, that's been a wet blanket on the day tbdesu, but it's good to see the brotherhood and respect among racists across the world.
Tomorrow is going to be absolutely next level! I bet it's going to be hard to move down there and IndyCar is a hell of a show.
Is there a local sports radio station that will be streaming the race? If not, just run the stream on your phone with ear buds and over the ear hearing protection. I wish I had thought reccomend that earlier.

Long Beach is the best street course in the world, but not every race can be the best.
>This track sucks
I see it everywhere, but nowhere near as much as NASCAR. There will be one bad race at a historically kino track and people will immediately call for it to be removed from the schedule.
Today was just a cursed day for sports car racing.
We started with a totaled Ferrari in Spain, a terrible fatality in Germany and a below average IMSA race. I guess WEC qualifying went well enough... I mean, no one died.
At least Indy qualifying was decent and we had joomin trugs.
If we couldn't look for tomorrow to be better, there wouldn't be any point in waking up.
I choose to believe tomorrow will be better and I encourage you to believe the same. Together, we can make it happen. replace.

It reallly is great. I've been thrice and I'ev always enjoyed myself indulging in all the automotive stuff there and visiting the big 3 galleries: Honda Aoyama, Nissan Yokohoma, Toyota Megaweb (before they shuttered)
Never attended a race on Japanese soil yet so that's the plan this year. The original plan was Sepang in June and Fuji WEC in September but now I might just do Japan twice and maybe even Macau at the end of the year

Perhaps I'm getting it confused with Turner BMW. I literally thought Ohlins was a sponsor because of the colors, but looking back, I guess I was wrong.
Still, they are more expensive than Bilstine, who coincidentally has the same color scheme.

24H NBR Qualifiers Race Called Off, Miettinen Passes After Serious Incident
>“During the first race of the ADAC 24h Nürburgring Qualifiers (18 April 2026), a serious accident involving seven competitors occurred in the early stages of the race. Following the collision between several vehicles, race control immediately halted the race to allow for extensive recovery and rescue operations.
>“Despite the immediate arrival of emergency services, the emergency medics were unable to save the driver involved, Juha Miettinen (BMW 325i, #121), after he had been extracted from the vehicle; the driver died at the Medical Centre after all attempts at resuscitation proved unsuccessful.
>“The race will not resume on Saturday evening. The thoughts of everyone involved in the 24 Hours of Nürburgring are with the bereaved family of Juha Miettinen.
>“A minute’s silence will be held in memory of the late motorsport competitor during the grid formation for Sunday’s race at 13:00.”
>“SRO Motorsports Group extends its sincere condolences to the family and friends of Juha Miettinen, who lost his life at the ADAC 24H Nürburgring Qualifiers earlier today.
>“It also stands in solidarity with the event organisers, ADAC and all those affected by the tragic incident.
>“SRO’s thoughts and prayers are with Juha’s family and friends, as well as the other drivers involved, at this difficult time.”
>“Heartbreaking news from the Nürburgring. We are shocked and deeply saddened by the fatal accident of Juha Miettinen. We lost a member of the BMW racing family under tragic circumstances. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.”
>It’s the first driver fatality during a race on the Nordschleife since German Wolf Silvester died during a race in June 2013.

it would likely be a manufacturer backed, for ford it would be cindric since he already raced there and maybe buescher since he already did an event in england with randle, chevy would either br a combination of the trackhouse or spire drivers, don't think toyota would bother as of right now

You know, I'm happy that my guy Lotterer's back in WEC with Genesis, but with Porsche gone, I don't know how to feel
I can't seem to care about WEC just as much as I did in the past couple of years, and it's gonna be really weird not to have Porsche in the top class at Le Mans again
Sure, there's been numerous spells like this in the past but with the Porschefag in me having no one in particular to root for, and it also weighs on me that Alpine and Acura and pulling out after this season as well, even if we're getting Genesis, McLaren and Ford in exchange
For god's sake Honda, it's one thing to sit on the fence but it's another entirely to mull over entering WEC 2 weeks ago and then dropping the bombshell this week of completely pull out of top class prototype racing
Porsche will be back, once they eventually figure out how to give the LMDhs a chance against the LMHs, that or once they unify both classes eventually in the 2030s

>detuned 911 GT3 to meet GT4 performance
I was expecting them to use a 911 Carrera as a base for the new GT4, just the regular turbo engine with some boost to save money. Guess it's better for them to use the same 4.0 across all race cars

Thais are not allowed to ride superbikes today
>>
>>154282241
No. Next gen Cayman is delayed for a few years because the platform hast to be redesigned to fit both EV and regular drivetrains. (that's the last thing I heard a few months ago)
There was always going to be a gap between 981 and the next model, but it is going to be a few years longer than originally planned
>>
>>154282291
is the ev version confirmed scrapped? They already had Baustufen cars on the road 3 years ago so i would be surprised if they skipped the whole car.
>>
>>154282291
>both EV and regular drivetrains
But yeah, they went almost back to square one at a very late point is what I've heard.
It could end up being two different platforms, EV cayman and regular cayman based on a modified 911 platform - but no matter how, you will be able to order both models in 2027
