No-rules racing sounds good on paper, but in reality it usually leads to the team that can throw the most money at R&D sweeping the competition, like this Porsche. Sometimes it can become a safety issue too because the cars are just too fast. I will say though that a racing series with only light restrictions on power to weight ratios and such would be really interesting to see, and would be a nice departure from the FIA’s habit of instantly banning any new technology

Clutch had a surprising amount of travel and a smooth bite point. I didn’t drive insanely fast round the corners due to the sheer value of it (regretfully a bit too slow, should’ve pushed a bit more) but all I wanted was to go full throttle for a few seconds on the straightest part, which I sure as hell got to do! 2nd/3rd gear to redline.

Honestly I wish we had a race series where there were no rules. They just tell all the big car companies and race teams “whatever you want to race, send it.” No rules or limiting on the cars. Just maximum performance that’s able to be obtained by modern tech just to show what they’re capable of.

@n_tas 7 ай бұрын

I think doing that in a race series is just asking for a boring race series where the team with the most money runs away with it and no one can compete. It's better the way it is now - well-regulated series, but with things like Pikes Peak, time attack and manufacturers setting lap records to demonstrate what cars can do when they're allowed to go crazy. Like the HKS Tsukuba time attack cars, the VW ID.R, Ford's recent electric SuperVan, the 919 Evo... Literally nothing could compete with the latter so I don't really think there's much entertainment to be had watching people try and fail, but we still get to see these cars in action.

Yup, I bet the guy who drove this in 1972 was not very impressed when the Bugatti Veyron came out like 39 years later......he was probably like "why is everyone so excited? I don't get it? Did everyone forget that 40 YEARS ago I went 233MPH in car that weighs 1,764lbs and had 1,100hp up to 1,600hp?" Seriously though. Everyone loves to think the Bugatti is the groundbreaking revolutionary car that smashed all the records and was ridiculously faster than every car that came before it. But in reality, this car from 40 years ago (39 years technically) could probably destroy the Bugatti Veyron in a race.
