Sexy.
 
Under that lipstick, the Nissan still have a ugly face.

WELL ACTUALLY.

Somehow every panel aside from the tail is actually different to the standard Ligier.

Not quite according to Ligier themselves. The only thing Ligier on the car is the important safety bits inside (Tub, chassis, etc).
 
Cold front moving in for the weekend in Daytona. Forecast on Wed and Thurs is high of 79* and 80*. For the race: Saturday mostly sunny high 62*F/low 45* and 0% chance of rain. Sunday high 62*/low 44* with a chance of rain coming late in the day around 5-6pm.

This is as of now. Here in FL the forecasts don't hold much weight so it can easily change.

This is the slowest week of the entire year. Good news is is that Qualifying is thursday at 3:00 p.m. Eastern, and to my knowledge, it will be streamed on IMSA.tv.

Stevenson Motorsports ALWAYS have the best liveries.

Still feels weird though to have those screaming eagles on a German car, but whatever, still badass.

I'm getting antsy. Plane leaves in less than 48 hours.

Hate planes, but still antsy.

Oh man.:lol:

***The pair of Starworks Motorsport Oreca FLM09s have eye-catching new liveries this weekend, in what team boss Peter Baron hopes will help keep them out of trouble. According to Baron, the No. 8 car is painted in “Please Don’t Hit Me Pink” and the No. 88 in “Hey, We’re Right Here Orange.”

“I don’t care if people think they’re the ugliest cars in the world, as long as they are seen on track,” Baron told Sportscar365. “Starworks’ rule of thumb on endurance racing is never paint your car the same color as pavement, which we didn’t adhere to last year. Bright and loud is all I care about for this one.”

Good lord, that's great.
 
He's got a valid point. :lol:
 
“Please Don’t Hit Me Pink”
“Hey, We’re Right Here Orange”

Yep, Starworks is cool. They know PC cars are caution magnets.
 
Is there going to be a Daytona 24 thread this year?
