Racing Discussion II. It's light's out and away we go!

[Cannot think of a name]

KTM X-Bow catches fire at the Ring, the driver gets out. Then the car rolls away, still on fire, down the slope and back on to the track ghost riding complete with flames.

It only got halfway down the hill before nosing into the wall.

[Rick Perry]

Nurburgring and Le Mans will have teams using fuel from renewable resources, specifically from the waste product after making red wine.

Oh, delicious.

[Vassenor]

Nurburgring and Le Mans will have teams using fuel from renewable resources, specifically from the waste product after making red wine.

Yeah, the WEC has been using this Total-developed biofuel all season.

Impressive how people are smart enough to make things into fuel

There was a fully operational plant in Carthage, somestate that was making usable gasoline from turkey offal through thermal depolymerization. Even with having to buy the offal since it's also used as feed AND having to continuously upgrade due to suspicious 'smell complaints' they were producing at $80 a barrel. (it's $115 now for the real thing).

Porsche is also investing heavy in what they call efuel so that people who own 911s can still drive them.

If you do the math, if every new car sold was a BEV and it replaced a ICE car, with the number of cars on the road and the number of new cars sold each year generously it would take close to 60 years to replace all the gas powered cars. More importantly, the poor are going to be the last ones able to adapt. Bio-fuels could help ease that transition while still phasing out fossil fuels.

(I realize that figure isn't exactly correct because a new car would replace someone's gas car, but then they'd sell it used which might displace another ICE car etc., but I'm not trying to make a specific model, just addressing what is often overlooked primarly by people throwing a little temper tantrum about BEVs, that even at full throttle it's going to take decades to even significantly replace ICE cars with BEVs.)

Yeah right.

Turkey fuel, Turkey gravy don't get them confused.
Also, I'm gonna have to Google how well Turkey fuel works. Efficiently wise.

I have no clue what this means. But I assume that Perez is better then I remember and Hamilton sucks.
I don't follow F1 for awhile and everything changes.

Then you didn't follow or watch the Monaco GP.

Face it - who bet Marcus Ericsson winning Indy?

Face it - who bet Marcus Ericsson winning Indy?

Not me, I wanted Jimmy to win. Now if your talking BET MGM stuff I do that, it's a lot of numbers I'm not good with numbers or money.

Also I wanted Redeck (however you spell it) to win the 600 so the number eighth would win the 500 and the 600.

[Bear Stearns]

i was just at the indy 500 this past weekend. sat in turn 4 (saw the crash there). cool to see ericcson win. scott dixon blew it. i was rooting for castroneves and the guy sitting next to me in the stands was smoking a joint

Yeah right.

Turkey fuel, Turkey gravy don't get them confused.
Also, I'm gonna have to Google how well Turkey fuel works. Efficiently wise.

I'm not sure what any of this says. What are you 'yeah right'ing? There are around 260 million cars registered in the United States alone and if we're generous there are 5 million cars sold in a year. What part are you questioning? I gave you the exact name of the process to turn turkey offal into fuel...not really sure what the gravy thing is all about.

[Bendicion]

Does anyone here play Real Car Racing?

[Rick Perry]

Does anyone here play Real Car Racing?

The mobile game? Well not really I don't have Google play (I don't know why) it looks cool. It also seems to easy, I get bored of games that I win all the time. Which is why I like sim racing, no difficulty just skill and depending on the race luck.

[Rick Perry]

Well you said "do the math" and that's not happening.

The worlds largest manufacturer bravely triumphed over two boutique manufacturers for the overall win at Le Mans.

The last win for GTE Pro goes to Porsche after the Corvettes crashed out.

Aston Martin claims the last GTE Am.

Something happened in LMP2, I'm sure of it.

Next year, 100th anniversary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Supposedly there'll be an actual hypercar field and GTE will be replaced with GT3 with modified bodywork.

Something will happen in LMP2, I'm sure of it.

Yeah, the LMP2s went around punting the Corvettes off the track.

Ferrari is fucked. Zero strategy and reliability and of course a lazy team principal who doesn't give any shits. They will definitely not win it this season.

They have for once a great car and they fuck it up. A shame! Not even replacing the team principal will work
