Watching Diners Drive Ins and Dives because it's kino and there's another Clint Bowyer episode. This is like 4 at least by now. I can't get over how scrawny he is...you don't notice it when he's in a firesuit. He's really fucking skinny.

This is also another reminder of why Bubba will never run again in another competitive NASCAR ride after tomorrow

Sam Hornish Jr was fastest in Xfinity practice yesterday Hope he wins
Jason Cooper
Brad nailed it, all the Toyotas have dialed it way back this week cuz they expect NASCAR to take cars/trucks to the wind tunnel.
Evan Peterson
Really looking forward to today's truck race. I think it'll be exciting as hell. Just hope Kryle doesn't shit it up.
Ryan Sanchez

>Johnny Sauter is running unsponsored in the truck race Guess that rumor GMS is cutting the truck team is starting to come true, then.
Hunter Jones
Wirth Research's proposed 2018 Indycar aero concept. I'm glad we got what we did instead of this. The radiators being moved where they needed to be along with the removal of the air box make it much more attractive than this. Wirth was responsible for the Honda 2015 aero kit that was laughably outmatched by the Chevy.

They also designed the Virgin/Marussia F1 cars in 2010/2011

Jordan Hughes
They also designed a Honda LMP2 that was so slow it only raced once before it was converted into a hillclimb car... Which then blew up all of the team's engines before even getting a complete Pike's Peak run in.
Exactly how does one go about becoming a pit crew member?

The teams mostly recruit college football players who don't make the NFL

Joshua Ortiz
Leaving this here for tomorrow
Depends on the role. Any heavy lifting like Tyre carriers and fuel carriers are usually ex-college athletes who don't make the pro drafts or Olympic team that teams recruit in combines held on the off season. Changers who hit the lugs are usually mechanics (Though if you have a background in Athletics it helps). Jackman can be either but usually a mechanic as if they have problems on the car on pit road then the changers and jackman can work on it. Especially this year with the Crash Clock being introduced.

>Changers who hit the lugs are usually mechanics every segment about it I've ever seen, the changers are college football recruits as well
Anthony Cook
I've forgotten if the WEC man stops by here or the /o/ threads. He has some good insights to working in motorsport.
=( RIP in peace, motion That DOOM livery you had last year at indy was pretty rad.

20 minute video of the Indycar test at Iowa, skip the driver interviews as they don't offer anything for those who have already read related articles. The last portion of the video shows the cars running near each other for a long while. wwwzyoutube.com/watch?v=51in13CgXTs

the new BMW M8 for the WEC >i wonder who thought that naming a car "M8" was a good idea
Brody Foster
Aleshin is jumping to WEC LMP1 full time it looks like.
Camden Price
He is a development driver for the SMP LMP1 car at the very least. It's likely that ACO is going to be making big changes to the LMP1 class in order to accommodate privateer entries, it needs them.
I'm more curious as to who will get his seat in Indycar. There are a lot of questions going into the 2018 Indycar season and, from what is rumored, the #7 SPM car will be a fully funded effort with a hired driver.
David Adams
Sebastian Saavedra is the safe bet to fill out the rest of the season for SPM. Still no idea who might get that ride next year though if the rumors of Arrow fully funding the #7 turn out to be true.
Jeremiah Martin
>, the #7 SPM car will be a fully funded effort with a hired driver
how can this be? they can't even run the #5 with their own money
Gabriel Jenkins
James Hinchcliffe doesn't bring any money, Arrow Global fully sponsors that ride. It's believed that either Arrow will be stepping up their program to allow Sam to hire yet another driver or he has another sponsor lined up for the 7 entry.
Caleb Wilson
Surprisingly low energy thread especially considering the /indy/ thread dies some while ago

There was a thread from last week that lasted into this week. Thus not many posts into this thread.
Jack Gutierrez
Reminder that Kylel had 4 fresh tires and restarted ahead of Larson.
Fiat-Chrysler still looking at bringing back Dodge even though they denied it and are in advanced talks. The even more interesting part is the second manufacturer which is possibly Hyundai. A possible Five manufacturers? Wew.
