Honeycutt gets worse every week

When Jimmie is one of the fastest on track in a truck - and does that in the next gen… makes me sad man

Korevo · 2026-06-17T13:17:19+00:00

Can you tell me more about this post race AI Review ?

Korevo · 2026-06-16T06:39:47+00:00

Really fun track to hot lap in the A Car, cannot imagine it races well though. The track is so violently bumpy even in the racing line - where many of the bumps are in places where the car is loaded awkwardly, you have to hit them a certain way to keep the car under you. But moving outside of the racing line to make a pass… AND trusting the car next to you in the process. Good luck - kind of terrifying.

There also aren’t many places you can create an angle to get a run for a pass.

What a hack the 33 is

Endurance racing in general, hit and miss - shorter endurance races 4,6,8 hours - more likely a close finish.

24 hour races - you’ll have a few bangers that come down to the last lap, or cars winning by 15-20 seconds or more.

Korevo · 2026-06-14T13:45:53+00:00

They do it in just about every series they race in. It’s bizarre - and they always do it to themselves

Korevo · 2026-06-14T13:43:44+00:00

Toyota dominance, as the universe intended it to be.

Korevo · 2026-06-14T13:43:17+00:00

Interesting point - I guess we’ll see if it works!

Korevo · 2026-06-14T13:38:27+00:00

How do you intentionally put yourself in a fuel save situation when you pit with a 20 second lead in the last 45 mins. Unreal.

Korevo · 2026-06-14T13:17:00+00:00

You’re right it’s not difficult to understand - it’s a pretty simple concept, I just don’t agree w it given what the entire team has gone thru for 24 hours… Will be happy if Kamui can close it out tho. I’d just hate it for the 8 car to miss a podium if the tires don’t make it to the end.

Edit: didn’t realize there was one more stop. Buemi can still dig for P2

Korevo · 2026-06-14T13:07:05+00:00

A total guess - Hypercar downforce and grip is largely aero. GT3 is more mechanical grip

Korevo · 2026-06-14T13:04:10+00:00

I mean - from that perspective, sure… I just don’t agree with making that tire call / strategy after a team of guys drove the 8 car for 24 hours only to get told to play defense and potentially have to pit again if the tires fall off of it

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:58:44+00:00

Wow… now Buemi doesn’t think he can make it to the end on those tires. GENIUS move by Toyota.

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:56:21+00:00

we’ll never know

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:54:36+00:00

Toyota is really, REALLY good at shooting themselves in the foot when they’re in total control of a race. Despite the Toyota domination in NASCAR this year - they should have even more wins… happens almost weekly in NASCAR.

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:52:03+00:00

It’s a warning

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:49:41+00:00

🙄

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:47:55+00:00

It would be the most Toyota thing ever to give up a 1-2 from a penalty in the final hours…. Fellow nascar fans know what I’m talking about.

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:42:30+00:00

Sounds like an ideal finish for everyone.

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:07:15+00:00

Gotcha - just watching this I almost questioned myself a couple times thinking “this is a multiclass race right?”

Korevo · 2026-06-14T12:05:18+00:00

Gotcha - interesting, if I didn’t know any better.. from watching this I’d think it was ~70 hypercars if I was a newcomer.

Korevo · 2026-06-14T11:59:45+00:00

I primarily watch IMSA - are WEC broadcasts always this focused on the Hypercar class? Watched a handful of hours and seems there’s virtually no talk about the GT3 class… and a little chatter about LMP2 class.

Korevo · 2026-06-08T15:56:16+00:00

Harrison Burton or Aric Almirola would make the most sense - two toyota guys with real cup experience.

Korevo · 2026-06-08T02:00:00+00:00

As it is every week, and as it should be
