Anyone know why the Japanese race tickets aren't for sale? I reckon it'd have something to do with Toyota dropping the race from Fuji Speedway. Any ideas on when tickets should be available?

It looks as if he's climbing out of the car in the last photo. I'd say that speaks volumes about Lola and their engineers re: engineering these cars to withstand some incredible loads.

Article 19 of the FIA statutes states:

"The President of the FIA, the 2 Deputy Presidents, the President of the Senate and the 5 members of the Senate other than the members by right, and the...

He is seriously off his rocker. :mark:

Um no. The cars, while appearing similar to most people, have subtle differences in the suspension geometry, brakes, and general setup (among other things). Having another teams setup is marginally...

I haven't heard much about it, but it looks quite a bit like World Challenge (ALMS) and Koni Challenge (Rolex), both of which have some great racing in production-based cars.

What would stop Bernie from screwing over all these venues once they back out by not moving to more Asian/Middle East races? His better judgement? A conscience? If you believe that, I've some...

Whichever track refuses to pay Ecclestones exorbitant fees next

Soon it will be an all Middle East/Asian series. At that point, I won't care any more. There are other racing...

Although, I believe that chassis is now in posession of Chip Ganassi, so that should even things out a bit.

I know Finlay Motorsports dropped out, but that wasn't due purely to sponsor issues. That accounts for one or two cars. The entry list for the Porsche 250 at Barber stands at seventeen cars as...

While it'd be cool to see some Pescarolo-run Peugeots battling Audi on our turf, I hope he comes to the 'States with his own chassis. It seems far more sensible to run his existing car, rather than...

F*ck you Bernie Ecclestone. There, I feel much better now. His demand for exorbitant sanctioning fees is largely, though not solely, to blame. It seems that the chances of any race here are bleak,...

Why front engine?

Andrew, this season Mazda (B-K Motorsports) stopped running the rotary in their LMP2 car (too bad), and switched to a two liter, turbocharged, four cylinder engine based on the Mazda MZR-R built by...

I prefer the styling and serviceability of many classic cars (1930's-early 1970's and almost completely European or Japanese), but the safety and technology of modern cars. Most modern cars have...

The Ferrari F2004 wouldn't work as the roads here are too poor of a quality for the low slung chassis. I'd personally go for something serviceable and with parts availability in the middle of...

From both Planetlemans.com and The-Paddock.net, it's reported that Ron Fellows and Andy Pilgrim will be running a third C6.R at Mosport. There's no entry list up for that race, so we can't confirm...

A bit more about the "vomit comet".

Huzzah, as they say! I hope he has some fun.

Any speculation as to what's causing a GT1 exodus in the ALMS? Perhaps the constant rule changes drove away Aston Martin/Prodrive?

It'd be awesome to see Aston Martin, Oreca Saleen (or any of the other Saleen teams from the LMS), a factory effort from Dodge, Ferrari (privateer since the factory only seems interested in F1) -- I...

Some people mistakenly call me Justin when they can't remember my name.
