Can't tell if trolling or serious...

You do know that the engine was imposed to them by the A.C.O right? And that they are having a great performance even though they have half the power. And that the incident was in big part due to Nakajima...

This... Deltawing was good enough to make a dent somewhere, so they got limited. Twice.

A joke is to bring 5 cars to a race where you have virtually no opposition.
 
what is wrong with the toyota?

There were 2 Toyota TS030's. #8 got ass ****ed by a stupid GT Am Ferrari noob and retired while #7 got a little too excited when the yellow flag was folded and hit the Nissan Delta and had to pit twice so far and now behind by 4 laps after leading for a few seconds.

WOW: Watching the official Le Mans streaming and they have chicks on the set lol
 
Ferrari hit the #7 and it flipped. #8 hit the Deltawing. #7 is out. #8 might as well be.

Its the 8 that flipped and crash, it was the 7 that hit the Delta Wing.
 
Remember Stavelot? Who got banned largely from dissing the DeltaWing?

He must be damn happy with it crashing out. He probably isn't happy with it wrecking the Toyota or something though I dunno.
 
Can anyone tell me what happened to the Toyotas? I've just tuned in and there's too much pages to browse in this thread.

#8 was pretty much pit maneuvered by a Ferrari and flipped. This was at the end of the Mulsanne. - Out of competition.

#7 drove into the front of the Deltawing creating problems in the rear right area and some censors went out inside the car. - Still in pits I believe.
 
Errr. No, DW was designed to show how cars can be more frugal. It's not pointless, it's the future. Next year number 00 will be placed onto a hydrogen powered racer. Pointless? No, garage 56 is the future.

QFT. I think G56 is a great idea.
 
Can someone please tell me the difference between a GT Pro car and a GT Am car.

Class of driver pro = Gold and Platinum licence. amateur = Silver and Bronze
Pro car, new 2012 model, Am car 2011 spec

This is what happened
Davidson was hit by a Ferrari


Nakajima hit the Delta Wing and incurred damage, and the #7 Toyota is still in the pits


EDIT: Tree'd many many times :lol: but the videos are useful reference if you don't want to dig through the thread
 
Toronado

The Ferrari hit the #8 not #7 and the #7 hit the Deltawing not the #8. So the #8 is out and the #7 is many laps down on the Audis
 
Had the LMP1 cars started ahead of the pack of slow runners, we would still have an exciting race...

What's the point of racing Le Mans with 300hp, even with a experimental car. Makes zero sense to me, they can only fail no matter the car.

And the crash, the only thing this useless car did was being in the wrong place at the wrong time, crashing with the wrong car.

NISSAN DELTA FAIL.

RACE IS 🤬 OVER. Damn.
 
Toyota's condition looks damn serious. That won't be getting out for a while. It might as well be stone dead last by the time it gets out again.
 
Deltawing haters. It was no-one's fault. NOT TOYOTA OR DELTAWING!

They were doing pretty well, until Toyota was in the wrong place at the wrong time. ;)

Also, how else are you to experiment with a car without doing the race it was built to do? Pointless to not. Re-think what you're talking about please.

You obviously haven't a clue what you're talking about, it qualified in midfield lmp2 without even having wings!
 
We've still got less than 17 hours to go and people are already declaring Audi the victor?

COME ON!

Well, all four audi cars won't just drop out of the race will they? and Nakajima certainly sucks as a driver so the chances of the #8 even being in the podium is closer to -1 than 0.
 
With Toyota, I think what I'll be disappointed with is we won't get to see the reliability of the machine because both machines have been taken out of contention by driver error (both driving the Toyota or external source).

You're referring to Audi I suppose? lol

^Looks at Rebellion Racing

Actually it was supposed to be the next indy car. But they turned them down.
 
You do realize that they are already LAPS ahead by now..

What do you mean? I was talking about how the LMP's shouldn't have started in the middle of the pack of slow movers, when the green flag was waved.
