Should a race car not be designed to be competitive with in the regulations of its desired class? Not built and then hope for allowances? I could be reading this all wrong but thats what it sounds like. I admit I am not an expert by any means when it comes to racing and the regulations. Can some one help me understand the complaint BMW has? It sounds like they were already afforded a weight reduction and a boost increase. |

Disappointing clip. I was hoping we would learn about some advanced technology that would trickle down to production in a couple years. Nothing.

Performance in the race was truly pathetic. The lap,times were 2 to 3 seconds slower than ford or corvette. Let's blame BOP.

I watched this race on TV on and off over the weekend. You cannot tell that it's different from the older tech. That said, I'm sure in person it'll look different.
Also, the overhead shots of the cars show the different light scatter method they're using.
