I was once taken to a posh German Schloss for a coffee and to try a speciality. They were surprised when I said, oh that’s rhubarb and we used to have some in our back garden! In fact most of the world’s rhubarb is grown just up the road of where I lived at the time.

It’s a vegetable, but you eat the stalk. Which is a pinky red colour. Rhubarb crumble is where it is at.

No mention of tyre warmers.

Are they still used in IMSA?

But come on. Speeding in the pitlane is so sloppy. You just don't do that.

No, not used. Never have been at least since we had the modern incarnation. So I guess that’s why it’s not mentioned!

They’ve raced at Daytona in the winter. It’s been pretty cold there.

That'll be why then!

Yes some very cold nights at the Daytona 24. Can't remember if, it was this year or last but one of them it was colder in the night then it was at Silverstone..

That’s two fingers in the drinking game. We’ve not had much complaining about the commercials on NBC yet, so we’re all still pretty sober.



Here’s the thread for you. https://tentenths.com/forum/showthread.php?t=156878

It’s clearly the type of incident that needs a decent gap to safely clear up. And besides this is the way it is approached in IMSA. There has been a decent gap from the last FCY, so it is a full procedure.

Yawn. This yellow is taking forever.

For a single undamaged car :/



Maybe because they want to show off that blue Dacia safety car?

So, the impact on the race.

A few cars needed an emergency stop. Not worked out well for them.

Ok IMSA needs to take note of my point for the millionth time. Code 60 is needed for stalled car and debris situations. Desperately needed...and no I don't buy the whole "you can't do this in America due to insurance" argument. Not for one second.
