I have to admit those Bathurst threads were comfy. I'm definitely a bit more okka now. I like them Aussies, they gotta funny waya talkin.
Christian Gray
>I like them Aussies Pic related
Sup Forums aussies are complete little cunts, and Sup Forums aussies are the worst of all. Those niggers are pretty much all riding the F1 cock, and they NEVER make supercar race threads. I doubt if even 10% of them even have a drivers license.
Jason Reed
I meant the okka m8s in the Bathurst threads. They were a different sort. Not the pretentious sanctimonious types that trickle over here from F!

Silly season update: TJ Majors and Brett Griffin mentioning on their podcast Danicles about to sign with a full time team running a car ending with "7". So either RCR, LFR or FRR. Imagine she gets the 77? (And it's possible because Barney Visser said that they had funding for most of a season for the 77 but they needed someone to bring extra sponsors on board)
Christian Johnson
>somebody took the time to make this
Is he... dare I say... obsessed?
Kevin White

DANICA PATRICK WILL WIN AT LEAST 1 (ONE) MONSTER ENERGY CUP RACE IN 2018
Brody Carter
Apparently One of the manufacturer’s is testing the Indycar 2018 Aero at Road America today. I believe it’s just Chevrolet since none of the Honda teams have posted anything.
Pics to follow. Hopefully we’ll have do trap speeds and video sometime today.
Jaxon Baker

Christopher Lewis

Joshua Gonzalez
Word is that Brandon Jones is going to Gibbs in Xfinity
Nathaniel Russell
Not a single manufacturer test. Schmidt Peterson Honda is there as well.
Hunter Clark
That's mid-ohio
Elijah Gutierrez
You’re right. I just looked at their tweet again. Suggests to me that it is only Chevrolet there and the two teams they brought with them are ECR and Penske. Simon Pagenaud and Spencer Pigot are testing.
Ethan Williams
Wait, I’ve finally determined what is going on after reading the testing rules again. Honda is testing at Mid Ohio, likely with Ganassi as well as SPM. Chevrolet at Road America with ECR and Penske.

what changes for the tub?
Colton Gutierrez
>officially out of FRM
Hudson Bailey
>danica to the 77 actually it doesn't sounds crazy at all, toyota has the shekels to maitain danica for publicity, like it or not, danica is the most recognizable face outside the sport F
Henry Wood
is this the end for our guy? will he be able to take Love's to someone else?
Asher Richardson
Floor changes a little, wiring is routed differently, I believe there are side impacts changes that account for the new radiator placement. The roll hoop changes as well.
Owen Murphy
well, the 10 doesn't have driver yet
James Reed
Call me crazy but I think she got picked up by Subway on the back of them leaving JGR because they still wanted to be in the sport. Plus Carl is a fitness freak and had the image Subway wanted so Danica would carry that same angle while Suarez is just a skinny Mexican. Lemonis made good on his promise to sponsor Suarez this weekend as well as he'll be carrying Canping World, though. Love's are a FRM sponsor so he's probably not carrying on with them (Though apparently they were super high on him and he got the "Where is Landon?" stuff ) but he is sponsored by CSX and some other companies. He'll likely land somewhere. Just "Where" will it be. Unless there's a last minute switcharoo, that's guaranteed to be Amirola.
Blake Martinez
I don't think Landon has any sponsors himself anymore. CSX is just another FRM spnsor.
Josiah Reyes
I think Visser has already said the #77 is shutting down.
David Myers
JFC, Gibbs.
Wyatt Myers
Ryan Preece won a race in a Gibbs car and companies want to put their money behind Brandon fucking Jones.
Liam Moore
>companies want to put their money behind Jones Uh, buddy, I don't think it's a coincidence.
Eli Martin
yeah brandon jones is rich kid
Hunter Moore
>Danicles about to sign with a full time team The cancer just won't die.
Spencer Pigot onboard lap of Road America. I think this is the first onboard cam of the 2018 bodywork.
Ryder Richardson
>That track is no good for modern racing.
Elaborate.
Liam Clark
I wish they'd implement visor cams for every car and you could pay to stream that shit for the race: Rahal at Phoenix doing like 20 second turns. youtube.com/watch?v=D1JY_UjEkl0
The sense of speed is incredible.
Connor Allen
What's with the exposed zylon (orange-brown colour) behind the roll hoop and on top of the chassis?
Jackson Garcia
for what purpose
Noah Harris
>Christina Nielsen 2 time GTD champion Balzan carried that car almost entirely on his own. All she had to do was try not to crash it. Also this is happening
Considering there are a lot of "good driver+shit driver" pairings in IMSA, she must be doing something right if she's been a contender for 3 straight years now.
Colton Cook
If by "doing something right" you mean "found the right man to leech off of", then yes, I agree.
But all chick do that....
Grayson Davis
But she had multiple co drivers in 2015, she could've won the GTD title alone
Henry Moore
She's easily one of the best ams in GTD and by far better than guys like Keating, MacNeil, Habul and Bennett.
Jaxon Long
But she didn't, did she? No, she didn't. >one of the best ams in GTD Sure she is, pal.
Isn't there some chick that doesn't like you that you two white knights should be beta-orbiting around instead of shitposting here on Sup Forums?
Landon Wright
>Isn't there some chick that doesn't like you that you two white knights should be beta-orbiting around instead of shitposting here on Sup Forums?
Colton Martin
You are right. CSX was on Moffit's car in 2015. MDS was the company who came in with Cassil in 2016 along with some local franchise resteraunts like A&W (The white scheme he runs). Looking it up, he has solid backing. It's just who would take him at this late phase and he's said some of the moves he's been looking at and has been offered are "Upwards".
Apparently Ragan may be out as well. The big change is FRM is going Toyota as another Gibbs affiliate. McDowell and Kenseth in the rides.
Visser said so far the #77 is just on ice for 2018 because the money 5 hour brings wouldn't cover a full season (And Jones ran a few of his Gibbs sponsors on the car like Gamestop), but if the right deal came around they could run 2018. Visser's hoping to run a full time second car in 2019 though.
Latest is the 27. Might be announced this week.
Dylan Diaz
You're a fucking idiot man. Bob Jenkins owns MDS and franchises for Taco Bell, Long John Silvers and A&W, which have been on his cars pretty much the entire time he's owned this team. They have nothing to do with Landon.
Jack Thompson
>going Toyota as another Gibbs affiliate
Dominic Rodriguez
Also CSX joined FRM in 2013 with Ragan
Julian Miller
>Latest is the 27. Surely Dillon and Newman will be pleased.
Colton Adams
possibly tape for more sensors or something. could be pressure or temperature probes idk
Leo Cooper
god really does hate fags
Benjamin Carter
yfw JGR sets up a wall at the front of the field at Talladega and it lasts all race
Jose Lopez
>27 I bet Ty will get that seat
Asher Mitchell
He already resigned with Germain
Brandon Rogers
When will a madman just say fuck it and go backwards like I did as a kid?
Camden Brooks
It's okay Jr will be running unrestricted
Elijah Rogers
They should have done that the first 3 plate races so he'd make the chase
Robert Green
thank you jesus
Michael Lopez
Damn it, i forgot it
Ethan Walker
Ty Dillon really hasn't done that bad for his first year:
-17 lead lap finishes despite the shitty car, which is 1 more than Dale jr. and 5 more than Danica Patrick, both of which are running top tier shit. -27 running at finish races, which is among the highest in the series and in-line with the best drivers running the best kit.
He's finished more races, and more races on the lead lap, than his brother Austin who's running better kit.
He might actually be competitive in decent kit.
Ayden Evans
>27 running at finish races, which is among the highest in the series More than half the grid has 26 or more. >in-line with the best drivers running the best kit Yet the three cars behind Ty in points lead this statistic.
He's not good and he's not bad, but he has outperformed Mears.
Owen Moore
>He's not good and he's not bad He's a rookie running shitty equipment. You put him in the Jones or Suarez ride and he'd be competitive.
Jeremiah Bailey
Sorry, but he's never shown that kind of speed. Your feelings won't make him a better driver.
Jaxson Jenkins
English isn't your first language, is it?
This is what I wrote: >really hasn't done that bad for his first year: >might actually be competitive in decent kit.
You can't even tell the difference between somebody citing superior performance, which I'm NOT, vs. somebody citing performance that doesn't suck, which I am.
Whatever, dude. We're done.
Justin Sanders
We get it, you're a Ty Dillon fan and you're all butthurt about Austin getting preferential treatment because Ty is the more talented of the two and could be the next great superstar in NASCAR if given the chance yadda yadda yadda
Whatever, dude. We're done.
Oliver Evans
Brad is a cunt but I like him more than I did in 14,15 now.
>Rich Child Racing
Ty was always regarded as the one with the most potential. He kills it on dirt.
