28.01.2026 19:27 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0With cars that have any amount of down force is trusting the car to roll some center speed. Especially coming from stock cars that's still a very strange feeling, and almost always where I find that I'm losing my time. Usually under braking and trying to find where I actually run out of df helps
22.01.2026 11:11 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I think for right now endurance vs sprint is no different, but there used to be other different pads that were just about how much friction they had. Maybe that has changed though I honestly couldn't tell you the last time I looked at a setup that close. I do think one of the big learning curves
22.01.2026 11:10 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Is it an issue regardless of setup? I know you can change pad compounds and whatnot. If it's happening anyway then I would just work on trying to under brake, or drive the car with no abs in a practice session to try and develop some muscle memory maybe?
21.01.2026 13:42 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0We just avoid the curbs basically. But before bop of a Porsche is .6 behind me (Cadillac) exiting the bus stop they're next to me by t1, but if I'm directly in their draft I just hold my ground. I did one imsa and decided that was enough. Daytona is the worst track for this sort of issue tho
16.01.2026 21:44 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yeaaa. We did a charity race a couple weeks ago and realized how of the Porsche was in that, and it seems even worse with the low fuel in imsa. But in the practice sessions for the 24 it doesn't seem *as* bad
16.01.2026 21:39 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0That Porsche is also incredibly op while the Cadillac is terribly slow on the oval. Sucks that the 24 bop doesn't apply to normal imsa races
15.01.2026 18:51 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I never thought there'd be a more hyped sports car season for me then 2023, but I think this year is taking the top spot. So many names doing really cool stuff
14.01.2026 15:54 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0It at least makes that strategy actually interesting, instead of just the default
13.01.2026 03:41 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Shit I didn't mean to leave you hanging. I don't think we have room for another driver in the 24 but maybe for future races? Although we usually use the Corvette/the Cadillac
13.01.2026 03:34 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0You ever make a decision on the 24?

30.12.2025 09:57 β π 3 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0This one genuinely makes me nauseous to read though. The people that wanted to go after an imagined group of child sex traffickers elected a fucking sex trafficker and now they're just pretending they didnt
23.12.2025 18:31 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Saw a great video that summed this shit up. Right wingers have positions that fall apart in the face of evidence in logic, so they get terrible grades when they're required to defend a position. Then they claim discrimination when they didn't do the shit correctly in the first place.
