The Le Mans governing body is revamping the rules next year for car classes. I assume what we know as GTE/3 will still be around. If this car qualifies for a class next year I’d think it would benefit from a 6 speed gearbox to better use the rpm range in the twisty parts of the track. I bet it would easily shave a couple seconds off lap times from what I saw. That car lost a lot of ground on a few turns because the engine wasn’t in a good rpm range. And maybe if they’d run Daytona and Sebring they might get the bugs worked out before Le Mans. But 250ish laps before breaking isn’t bad, especially in a new car. My rough math says they went over 2100 miles before breaking something.
Hershey plays game 3 Tuesday, 4 Thursday, 5 Saturday at home at 7pm.

They don't/can't run Daytona and Sebring because IMSA doesn't have that experimental class for them to enter. Every year there's talk about IMSA and FIA ironing out the rules difference so they (Prototype/Hypercar/GT3) can cross over series, but far as I know it's mostly been hot air. Im gonna try and find out why they didn't run a 6 speed like the gte's. Soon as nascar announced the deal with HMS to run the 24H race everyone was like "Oh cool, no testing in nascar but HMS gets to do a 24 hour race in their car".. They kept saying there was not going to be any advantage learned or gained by doing it. lol

Fuck Vegas
waynerivers:
Vegas is going to win, though. They're clearly the better team. Be nice if we still had Chandler.
Mickstix:
Yea, down 3-1 is nearly impossible. Especially for Cinderella's.. Chander has definitely grown into a player though! We have a few of those floating around the league.. Thanks GMBM!! :-(
