Pretty good racing. Reminder that the arca race will be better than any nascar race this weekend.

Trucks has a chance, but yeah, the race for 2nd was pretty good.

Aside from the yellows, the racing was great. Especially the last 18 laps with those 3 separate attacks those dudes were making. Classic shit right there.

>The concept was first publicised following the most recent FIA World Motor Sport Council meeting earlier this month, with confirmation that the first event will take place in Rome on Nov. 1-3.
>It will coincide with the second edition of the FIA GT Nations Cup which takes place at Vallelunga, just outside the Italian capital.
>Drivers from a variety of disciplines will take part in the Race of Nations, encompassing six different forms of motorsports: GTs, touring cars, Formula 4, drifting, karting slalom and digital motorsport.
>Competitors will be awarded Gold, Silver and Bronze medals in different contests, with results going towards an overall medal table that decides which ASN is awarded a trophy during the eventā€™s closing ceremony.
>The event will be repeated annually, with a different city hosting the opening and closing ceremonies each year.

>IndyCar @ Pocono future uncertain
trackforumboomers absolutely SEETHING

We already knew they were negotiating with Richmond to possibly take its spot. Sucks but they cant fill the stands and drivers keep getting fucked up. They do need a new northeast race though with the glen gone and pocono looking like it has one foot in the grave. That race at pocono will power came from nowhere and won from a lap down is one of my favorites

go back to Watkins Glen, that race never should have left

i don't think many drivers will miss pocono, at least in joonya's podcast pagenaud mentioned it wouldn't be a big loss, i would love to see this package on a 2 mile oval

Never liked pocono but 4 oval schedule is pathetic Indycar. They ought to just sell to Bernie Ecclesotne for his new F1 rival league.

Indy need a overseas race again.

Supposedly they would replace with another oval at richmond. It would make the 500 the only superspeedway though

Takuma suggested a japanese street race, which would be amazing. I believe it will take significant funds committed by a promoter or government before an international race happens again though

Is Indycar popular enough in Japan?

Super Trofeo.
imsatv.imsa.com/

with takuma having good results yes, but i fear the hype will die as soon as taku retires

Let Go Racing will broadcast the rest of the VLN season with english commentary

It's just a rebroadcast of the existing stream, they do the same shit for SRO stuff.

why the hell waste the money to set up a street course when theres plenty of good Japanese permanent race tracks

nobody goes to ovals except Indy deal with it boomer

To get people excited for it and show up? The whole point is theres not really a history of street races in japan, so doing something new would be cool. The tracks won't pay to host indy certainly so I'd think it was actually more likely a government wants a street race as a big event and economic draw, if that makes any sense. Just not sure indy at Suzuka or Fuji would have the same draw or wow factor. Outside of the 500 the street races are the biggest spectacle and draw. Fixing up the motegi speedway and running a japan 500 on the other hand would be amazing

how do you convince the Japanese government to completely shut down downtown Tokyo?

Doesnt have to be tokyo, japan has other cities user

It really does vary by region and from track to track in the end as to what it takes to be a super late or a late model or a super stock or whatever
Was watching super stocks at Bowman earlier and they look and sound like what we call a late model out here

is Super Formula faster than IndyCar

They should be. They used to be faster than F1 in the corners, not sure now.

RAIN IN 5

I hope the next-gen Indy car significantly ups the horsepower.
Dario Franchitti's lap record of Road America (set in 2000 in CART, 1:39.866) hasn't beaten for 19+ years.
for comparison, Colton Herta did a 1:42.992 during this year's qualifying.

GOTTA GO FAST(ER)!!!

heavy BoP coming if mazda wins

>only 2 LMP2's
why

Everyone switched to dpi when they separated the prototype class

so why even bother allowing LMP2's if only 2 cars show up to race

The appeal of P2 in IMSA was that they could fight against the DPis for wins. They took that away so no one wants to race them. Apparently it's cheaper for a US team to do a full ELMS season in P2 than in IMSA.

why is sports car racing so fucked up

How so?

what was wrong with good 'ol LMP1, LMP2, GT1, GT2?
now shits a huge mess

GT1 had to die, too expensive, no interest. GTE is essentially just a evolution of GT2.

will "Hypercars" be more like GT1, or more like LMP1?

hypercars are nu-GT1

A bit more like late 90's GT1/GTP.

For me, it's Moto 3.

IndyCar made a huge mistake letting Pato O'Ward, Indy Lights champion slip away to F2 and Super Formula.
you can kiss that Mexican IndyCar race goodbye, who's gonna show up with no Mexican IndyCar driver to root for?

theres not even a proper tv deal to watch him, do you think having him fighting to not finish last was going to be enough to have an indy race in mexico?

I guarantee people would still show up to a race in Mexico. They don't need to be pandered to, there are enough people in either Mexico City of Monterey to get a nice crowd. The problem is more that they are scared of pissing off the big 3 owners who always whine about travel costs while spending millions on shocks.

maybe IndyCar should not let piece of shit snake oil salesmen like Mike Harding run IndyCar teams.
if it wasn't for that whole Harding fiasco, Pato would have had a ride in IndyCar.
how can you call it the "Road to Indy" when the Indy Lights champion has no ride, but the second place guy has a ride that can win COTA, and qualify on pole at Road America?

desu we need another Canadian IndyCar race before a Mexican race.
I'm thinking Circuit Gilles Villeneueve, Circuit Mont Tremblant, or a street race in Edmonton or Vancouver.

Monthly reminder that Natalie Decker nudes/lewdz exist and have been circulating a fair bit.

TRD will sue the fuck out of anyone who posts them into oblivion so it's pretty much a stand-off as to who can cover their asses from a legal standpoint before uploading. But I think it's safe to say that if the iRacing crowd has them and are sharing them behind the scenes, there is much more where that came from.

The pics are all consensual. She's in some shitty hotel room on the road and someone else is working the camera.

It is possible that this has blown up behind the scenes and is part of a bigger issue, hence why she's been running like shit, the team doesn't seem to properly prepare her equipment, and the broadcast crew just rips on her. My own personal hypothesis is that she's a known homewrecker/roastie in the garage and people just want her gone. This is really not uncommon in racing which is why there hasn't been more of a stink made about it. Women sleeping around for rides goes back to the Shirley Muldowney days.

I'm obviously not gonna upload anything on Yea Forums because getting sued by a major racing team just to prove myself right to the ~70 posters in motorsport general is kind of pointless, but I'm sure they'll get out eventually. You'll know it when you see it. I don't care for blondes so they did nothing for me but I'm sure someone will enjoy them.

Goddammit, it triggers my autism immensely whenever NBC shows Justin Haley getting his win taken away.

He fucking won, fuck NASCAR's shitty rules.

Bud if going below the double yellow was allowed he wouldnt have won because other drivers would do it too. He got that position because he broke a rule intended to stop drivers from getting too aggressive and wrecking everyone. Maybe he should know the rules

>if you advance your position by crossing under the yellow line
>doesn't cross until he's in the lead
It was a short time and he was barely in the lead, but he did it fair as the rules word it.

If he didn't go below the line he still would have won. The inside lane was open and he had the momentum.
Haley's an idiot, but so are you.

>crashlow

been playing Gran Turismo lads. and it made me curious.
if you took the current Toyota WEC car and put it up against the Toyota 88C-V Group C car, with the same driver, on time trial around Circuit de la Sarthe, how would the lap times compare?

Attached: images.jpg (275x183, 10K)

Probably the Toyota TS050. Has more downforce and the electric power + 4wd allows it to boost out of corners.

P.S.
I realize we can't have a direct lap time comparison because the old Toyota ran on the pre-chicane version of the circuit

Just look at the quali times on a track like spa or LeMans between today's cars and the cars that ran them back then and you'll get fairly close.

The tire is the limiting factor in all racing, and the tech has advanced over the years along with car development, so the improvements in racing are a result of a variety of factors.

so could we theoretically get up to the ridiculous amounts of horsepower of the Group C (for circuits) or Group B (for rally) eras with modern technology to improve the car's handling and safety to make the thing driveable?

why do I feel like racing series are slacking on getting the cars up to the level of the monster cars of the 80's and early 90's?

even for IndyCars, the lap record for Road America hasn't been broken since Dario Franchitti in CART in 2000.
we have all this technology now.
WE NEED TO GO FASTER

>could we theoretically get up to the ridiculous amounts of horsepower
We're already there. I think the motorsport world has simply concluded that the 200mph mark is about the limit to what can be raced safely on today's tracks, as speeds greater than that tend to prove catastrophic for driver and spectator alike.

Rather than raw power, I'd like to see reliability be a factor again and make the teams build parts that have to last multiple races. I think we're at the point where that's possible without reducing speeds too much.

>WE NEED TO GO FASTER
Need new tracks to support the speed bro.

Dubtacular.....

Attached: Italian Driver Dario Franchitti.jpg (292x173, 9K)

>reliability
how can that be a factor without doing a 2 or 3 day race? top endurance cars can handle a 24 hour race with a very good likelihood of finishing (if the pit crew stays on top of their shit)

so we need to go full F-Zero?

Attached: 220px-SNES_F-Zero.png (220x193, 40K)

what if we didn't need tires
we need hovercrafts

Yeah, LMP1 cars are limited in their fuel flow rate to 81kg/hr which is a max HP of ~1100 hp if we assume 100% thermal efficiency. The TS050's engine puts out reported ~500 hp which is ~37% efficiency. The F1 V6 Turbos reportedly have ~45% to nearly 50% thermal efficiency

If the FIA didn't mandate fuel flow limits the power of the modern engines would be massive with the huge thermal efficiencies they have, then add on top the batteries have also got restrictions.

Unreliability isn't coming back unless we force teams to build engines using manual milling and turning. Modern manufacturing techniques are just too good nowadays that cars can drive pretty much flat out in 24hr races with a very good chance of not suffering a mechanical failure.

>F1 is the "pinnacle of motor racing"
>all these restrictions

>how can that be a factor without doing a 2 or 3 day race?
Using the same engine, tranny, gear box for multiple races. Maybe give them extra points for it and penalty points for not meeting min number of races.
Pretty much. Indy was built in 1909, at a time when cars were running under 100mph? If they want faster speeds they'll need to build runoff areas to bleed speed before slaming into safer barrier.

Too expensive, though. Easier to just slow them down.

P1 has a limit to the number of engines they can use in a season, not sure about the other classes. They usually just save an engine for LeMans.

I think even F1 put a limit on engines due to fuckers building a single engine just to qualify...which is madness.

Dale Sr. is rolling in his grave at the state of Nascar

F1 needs to decide if its the actual "the pinnacle of motor racing" or if its a series for rich guys to pretend they are at the pinnacle but not actually spend all their money.
CAN'T HAVE BOTH

the pinnacle would be building a new car for every race.
psh what, do you want to be like those *ugh* Americans with their IndyCar and their cost-controlling measures?

Relax...breathe. You're not making sense, user.

They decided that during the 90's, I beleive, and it's for rich guys and politicians to extort tax money from 3rd world nations for the "privelege" of hosting a race.

>the pinnacle would be building a new car...

gonna need a stream for this if you please lads

i'm certain they have additional chassis, they aren't allowed to have spare cars ready to go by the regulations though

what is a "car" though?
if you take the wheels and brakes etc off the chassis is it not a car then?

No comparison, user, due to the difference in material and production costs.

probably can't have engines or gearboxes idk

>call themselves pinnacle hardcore racing
They're not. They're the pinnacle of egnineering an open cockpit car, but they sure as hell don't "race" them as that would imply competition.

>that would imply competition
kek

>ruined by Porsche
fixed for you

For me, it's Ferrari

like I said, obscenely rich guys.
>kinda rich guys drive sports cars as gentleman drivers
>obscenely rich guys own the sports car company

for me it's the F40

No, obscenely rich guys were in BPR to begin with. May I remind you the McLaren F1 has always been fucking expensive even by supercar standards, it cost 819k in 1994 dollars, thats 1.4M in today's money.

And it was basically the 1994 equivalent of a bunch of rich arabs putting a rollcage on their Bugattis and going racing. They just let the factory know in case they were interested, because they were going to race the F1 anyway.

Naturally the only thing that can shit on that kind of money is a billion dollar company or two.

so the reason sports car racing keeps getting fucked up is rich guys trying to out-rich other rich guys, like it's a competition of who has the most magnificent yacht in the harbor of Monte Carlo basically

Pretty much.

>listening to Rossi being interviewed for almost an hour on radio
>hosts keep talking about apehoop

and then one rich guy ups the ante so far that the other rich guys drop out of the series, and then the series dies as the rich guys go off to find another toy to play with

No, that's capitalism.

Local dirt track and drag racing is about all you get, user. Sports cars are fucked, and will always be fucked.

>drag racing
my fatass coworker brags about his drag car
maybe if he fuckin lost about 200 lbs he could shave a second off his time
WEIGHT REDUCTION

imagine buying cheater slicks to make your car faster when you weigh over 300 pounds

Drag racing is ripe for the "youth movement" to hit as chicks and 70 year old John Force are what's considered "competition". Give me some 20 year old male volunteers, training, and a season or two, and they'll smoke the shit out of the field every time their engines don't blow.

maybe if they aren't 350 lbs

desu why even have a driver in a drag car?
if it's just a roll of the dice whether it wins or explodes...
it's basically a high explosive missile dragging along the asphalt on a piece of rubber

>why even have a driver in a drag car?
That's where the competition comes into play. Who has the fastest reflexes off the line, and who has the better throttle control to achieve more A then wheel spin.

Drag racing really is the best tech / driver series in all of motorsport imo.

Then there's also the staging fuckery that takes place, which is totally human dependent.

>Keselowski intentionally wrecks Byron at Practice today
>Byron forced to use shitty back-up car, effectively killing any chance of Byron being with a competitive car Saturday
>No punishment at all on Brad's side

What the fuck is wrong with NASCAR?

>shitty back-up car
nowadays (at least for the top teams) the backup car is as good as the main one

? You realize back ups are exact clones of the cars they're using in the first place right? There's nothing different between the two.

motogp fp1 is on then moto2 then moto e

>>Keselowski intentionally wrecks Byron
No, he didn't lift. There's a difference.

If Brad lifts, then HE gets hit in the ass and wrecks. He's decided not to do that this race.

Hicky is also good on short circuits and knows Donington well, but I doubt he'll do better than top 6.

Just look at the Porsche project when they chased records.

Steve Phelps is cancer. As much as Brian France deserved his hate Phelps was his brain trust and needs to get gone

>when your series has been in full "FUCK YOU, FANS" mode for the past decade.jpg

Okay... but why?

OEMs are pressuring NASCAR to go electric, and Phelps is just going to bend over and take it.

>fred nando lonso splits with mclelen
lol he wants a penske

Manufacturers want it. Soon every series will by hybrid

>Rossi to penske is just a smokescreen for nando to penske

I dont see the big deal with hybrid if they actually use it to increase the horsepower, but I have a feeling they wont

Xfin quals cancelled. Lining up by points

rain?

I don't see a problem with it if they're going to try and havest the brake heat energy, plenty of tracks that generate it....

Lightning in the area

Getting close and I was feeling motivated, so new Gen thread
