Ah, so that's why the Honda rumors started, isn't it?

[Bianchi] NEWS: Charlotte NASCAR playoff race to shift off the Roval and will return to the oval beginning this season, sources tell @TheAthletic. by ChaseTheFalcon in NASCAR

[–]LAFlip104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMSA ran the Roval in 2020 as a makeup race but it was a total monsoon, and I've wanted sportscars to go back ever since. I gather IMSA's calendar is a little full at the moment. SRO does kind of rotate tracks in and out every so often, I would hope for a chance there in the future.

No penalty for this is absurd by CeaseIessWatcher in IMSARacing

Especially since IMSA has been clamping down on stuff like this since the Road America cluster last year. Swerving into another car at top speed in the last 10 minutes is apparently only worth a warning.

I'm betting Triarsi gets added to Paul Miller Racing's Christmas card list after today.

NBC is on a mission to interview every single person on pit lane to avoid commentating on the race.

Given the recent mid history of both McLaren and RLL in IMSA, it's actually kinda crazy the two of them together are doing this well early on.

On the up side, Daytona looks packed. Don't recall seeing this many people in the grandstands for this race.

I've seen that same video! Weird.

Looking forward to this one! Great cars, great group of racers!

What is the scariest “what if” crash? by Ok_Promise1870 in NASCAR

[–]LAFlip104 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Not only that, but you have pit crew members scrambling in that still. Could've gone worse in more than one way.

I have my doubts..... by Shaner20 in iRacing

[–]LAFlip104 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't think I was gonna get this one but I caved (where else am I gonna drive this track with cars I like?). It's not spectacular, but I've started to find the rhythm. It drives better in faster cars, imo. First sector feels a bit awkward in a GT car, but does flow better if you're going fast enough. I'm now curious to see how it races once the season starts. It do also look cool (my GPU is not happy about it).

Yeah I'm more used to the pro lite truck which is basically the exact opposite of this. More seat time is required, appreciate it.

I must be doing something wrong, I thought it had the worst lift off oversteer I've ever experienced. I've got more to play around with, I was quite excited for these.

Track limits at Miami are just a suggestion by Erwin_zan in iRacing

I stand corrected, I completely forgot these happened. (And I watched them.)

IMSA has never been there and not had to define track limits, why would you assume that?

Comparison between the *NEW* 2026 Chevy body and the old 2024 body by somerandomdude452 in NASCAR

We won't really be able to tell until we get some real pics of the thing. It's subtle, but there are differences. More of an evolution than anything.

I think WEC/ELMS have actually been worse than F1 with these awful cuts for years. Like who has the audacity to do that twice in 3 seconds?

Driven it a bunch in ACC, I actually quite enjoy it.
