Turbulence from the lead car and exceptionally short braking distances are the problems. The only answer is less aero, which would mitigate both...
It will become more and more challenging for manufacturers to offer V12s unless there's a change in our regulatory trajectory. If this addresses...
Exactly. Passing is still horrendous, just in a different way. It's not an easy problem to solve. DRS did not solve it for me.
Forestalling extinction of the species.
Personally, I would prefer one "real" pass per race than 100 with DRS.
I was also ardently against the idea of a V6 until I heard it! They did a great job with that engine.
I'm sure I can think of a few more examples too (EB110, 959, etc.). But for the first four decades or so of their existence, I'd say that turbos...
More work, but more rewarding? Can't wait to see it.
Ten years is roughly what I had in mind when I said recent. I would attribute the timing of this shift mainly to an increased social and...
And yet, few found their way into street cars until recently. Turbos have been an easy way to add power for 50 years. But, with the odd exception...
Hear, hear!
For me, it depends on my mood. Sometimes I love hybrids because they're just so good. Particularly if the alternative is turbo lag. Sometimes, I...
Precisely the right question. Equally applicable to all manner of modern racing, which is why I don't find the racing credentials of the hybrid V6...
This won't be the issue, at least not for guys like Harris. On the rare occasions when they spin, it will tend to be on entry or a mistake at exit...
Congrats on the car and the progress on the knee. Spec looks killer. Glad to hear you're pleased with the sound. Can't wait to hear more...
Is this true of the GT3? Does anyone know the numbers? Around here (northeast USA) I see almost exclusively manuals in GT3s.
I don't think this is the reason. Certainly not the only reason. They know their market.
Not a bad backdrop either, @jorge.rios!
Not a bad backdrop either!
Once the car is launched, the topics will change I'm sure.
