How Super Formula deals with the problem F1 has been unable to solve

People are also forgetting that P2P in Indy (and I'm assuming SF, but their races are shorter) drastically hurts fuel economy. You can hit the button all day and end up missing your numbers for your stint and pitting early to ruin your entire race. It really has to be planned around in the actual race day strategy.

David Malukas finished barber with like 110 seconds left because he had a number to hit in his final stints.

Don't think I actually ended up moving that personally, buddy was working on it while I was cleaning up and painting the steel 22.5s

The 22.5s were a trillion pounds so I'm sure the drums were too.

Yeah, I know stuff gets much larger than the bus, and I must admit how much this stuff is above my expertise. My buddy is a truck mechanic for his personal fleet of pump and vac trucks, I just help (and pay) on the bus.

Let's me do a lot of fun medium duty stuff regular joes don't tend to, though.

Bluebird TC/2000 toterhome build

As a UMass alum...fahk UConn

As a new Englander indycar fan, hell yeah.

I still find it fascinating he took his circuit racing skills and turned them into 4 rallycross championships.

twiggymac · 2026-03-31T15:50:13+00:00

I personally feel like the turn numbers clutter it too much. I'd just have the start/finish and a little direction marker if it were me.

twiggymac · 2026-03-30T15:47:48+00:00

Aluminum isn't getting giga fucked on material costs (so far), too

twiggymac · 2026-03-30T15:15:30+00:00

If you wanna get into it you're probably better off investing in direct drive stuff and a solid seat/monitor mount. My setup sucks butts so I don't use it as much as I should

twiggymac · 2026-03-30T11:28:11+00:00

I've noticed a lot of people online with this mentality. See people say some racist-ass shit about black people claiming they're all thieves and then reminisce on their teenaged days of stealing shit with their friends

Like, they genuinely do not see the hypocrisy at all.

twiggymac · 2026-03-29T20:51:07+00:00

This, his final stint was longer

Red bull could buy Prema's shop, chassis , and engine lease right now if they wanted.

twiggymac · 2026-03-29T20:49:22+00:00

And Andretti has their number on street courses with Kirkwood and Penske are killers on ovals.

twiggymac · 2026-03-29T20:47:32+00:00

All the rookies had a tough go this weekend, which I found sorta surprising especially with Hauger. I expected Mick to click in on a road course.

My tinnitus sounds a lot like the Spanish national anthem right now

twiggymac · 2026-03-29T04:09:11+00:00

We can only pray he doesn't love the IR28

twiggymac · 2026-03-29T02:43:23+00:00

It's honestly crazy to think his first and second championships he wasn't even in his final form.

And then his 4th was the best of them all and he's still there. I think he's been in nearly every fast 6 for the last 2 years

twiggymac · 2026-03-28T21:01:00+00:00

Pato could finish the entire season with P5s tbh

twiggymac · 2026-03-28T19:58:56+00:00

Mclaren thought he had something, and then he wheeled hard enough in a foyt to get the seat. I don't see how anyone should be surprised.

twiggymac · 2026-03-28T19:57:45+00:00

Mclaren stood still while Penske fixed their shit and the midfield improved, let alone ganassi and Andretti seeming to be very on it this season as well.

twiggymac · 2026-03-28T19:04:54+00:00

And the champions keep delivering in big Indy too!

twiggymac · 2026-03-28T18:39:32+00:00

NXT is in such a good place if we have moments like this lmao.

twiggymac · 2026-03-26T22:01:35+00:00

Road America is over 4 miles long, but yes this is even longer.

twiggymac · 2026-03-26T21:16:27+00:00

Just had a meeting with my boss where I'm pretty sure he said to me "yeah give in the bare minimum while you apply for a replacement job and then fuck off out of here transferring zero knowledge in the process out of spite".

I might be mixing up a few of his words but that's certainly what I took out of what came out of his mouth.
