      I love all forms of motorsports but grew up on Nascar. Every time a formula one champ enters a Nascar race they get alot of hype and then run in the back of the field. When 7 time Nascar champion Jimmy Johnson went over to IRL he was a back marker. Not easy to come into someone else's playhouse and be competitive without alot of testing. Something Jimmy didn't get the luxury of doing. Simulation doesn't replace actual testing.

      Before the garage sessions first to do the pre-planned brake discs and pads change and then the gearbox replacement the lead over the top GTE see sawed as the Chevy was way faster especially when no slow zones or safety car periods but to be that fast took a lot of fuel given the weight and size of the car! At pit stops it took longer to refuel as the GTE cars filled 24 gallon tanks whereas the Nascar had a 32 gallon tank. On the straight Garage 56 entry was almost able to keep up with the LMP2 cars.

    Keep in mind, that this is not a NASCAR, but a car inspired by NASCAR. Almost everything on this car is different. Suspension, brakes, wheels & tires. The list goes on. The engine, not constrained by NASCAR rules makes more power and is more durable, while still being detuned by 100hp or so for this race for longevity. The Aero is much different, biased towards down force, not top speed. Jenson Button said ( as seen in the videos ) that car is a torque monster and was crushing the other cars accelerating out of the corners and for the first third of the straights, but the barn door rear spoiler slowed top speed quite a bit. He also mentioned that for as good as the mechanical grip was, the weight of the car hampered braking and cornering.
    It also has a carbon chassis.
    Everyone thought the car would blast down the straights at over 200 then almost come to a stop in the chicanes.
    In the drivers meeting before the race the officials mentioned possibly waving white flags when the car was in corners to warn the other drivers of a slow car ahead. Definitely not the case as they found out during qualifying!
    An actual road course NASCAR would not have fared as well in this race.
    I hope this type of car gets a class of its own and continues to be developed.
    Kudos to Hendrick Racing for fielding such a good car out of the box! And assembling a dream team
    Sounds to die for!
    Some of the other drivers were moaning that the car was keeping them awake during the night. 😂

      Almost everything important is actually the same or quite similar, though. Suspension is identical. Brakes, wheels, and tires will ALWAYS be different for a road race vs an oval car. The engine is the same exact block. The front crash structure is actually the biggest change, along with the material used to make the body panels. The panels themselves are otherwise identical too. And all things considered, the canards and dive plans are very small pieces of aero compared to a giant rear wing.

Yes, it's a tube frame, but it's an extremely thick steel tube frame that's hilarious overkill compared to a GTE car. There's a reason why the car still weighed over 2,900 pounds after they ripped all the weight out, even after they removed the bump draft reinforcements, and it's that steel tubing. A car that used a base Camaro would probably actually be lighter, purely down to the fact that it's made out of aluminum.

The additional HP helped overcome that for G56. So no, not really fanboying. But yes, this car was not competing in the GTE class. If you want a stock car to actually compete in GTE then you'd have to swap all the steel with aluminum or other lighter materials.

And now the Camaro! What immediately caught my attention was the difference in how a prototype car passes a GTE car and how it passes the Camaro. The LMP cars come out of a turn and immediately rocket past the GTE cars but they had to work to get past the Camaro. The process took time. The Camaro took Lemans by storm! And that sound!

    Nascar is notorious for being rather slow, unless its doing oval racing due to its regulations.
    With this, on the other hand, to be rid of those and just be built more like a normal race car.
    For all intents and purpoaes, it's mostly still a nascar but no restrictor plate for over 700 horse power. Massive weight reduction. And f1 style wheel and paddle shifters. Alongside proper aerodynamics.

      @@stephen28418 I happened to be watching while the announcers were talking about getting sleep overnight. One of them said, and I'm paraphrasing here, "People were trying to get some sleep overnight, and every now and then the NASCAR Camaro alarm clock would go past and wake them up."
