    Indeed and she puts forth an extremely compelling argument in my view.

    Make sure you penalize a car if the team has done a good job and came up with a good car. Race to race "adjustments", god how much i hate these "artificial" racing series' like this "Tudor" junk. And is it just me or do the American series take the whole "adjustments" thing to an even further level than the Euro series'? Or are they pretty much equal on that front? I swear, every race now a team gets a bigger restrictor, and/or lower max revs, and/or more weight, and/or skinnier tyres, and/or aero "tweaks". You could successfully race a Toyota Corolla against a Ferrari in these stupid types of series'.

    Also, listen to the 458 in it's first year of ALMS and Le Mans and listen to the 458 in this series. The original one sounded like you could hear it from miles away and sounded all raw, lumpy, rough, like it had REAL racing parts like aggressive camshaft and camshaft profiles, aggressive exhaust system (or lack of an exhaust system, lol), and sounded like it was revving to 10,000 RPM plus. While the current 458 sounds like it is revving to even less than the consumer roadcar revs to, plus it sounds like the engine and exhaust is almost fully stock exhaust being louder but still sounding like a muffled and completely restricted exhaust and on a stock entine with no raw, rough, racing sounds that make the hairs stand up in the back of your neck.

    Same when I heard the 2005 ALMS 360. I heard it live, sitting at an idle for a few minutes at a test. You could tell it had REAL racing parts and exhaust because the idle sounded like the engine was literally going to explode and blow-up the entire car, lol. It was so loud, rough, raw, even at complete idle with 0% throttle being applied. You could hear the crazy and aggressive camshaft that it had, so lumpy, rough, raw, loud, it made you jump and laugh like a school-girl.

    The cars are way too close to stock roadcars nowadays, in some cases even worse, lol (for example, the 458 sounds like it revs to 5000 RPM and is suffocating and about to die).

    Rant over, lol

    A very lucky guy, Clio driver Darren Langeveld, survived a straight up on-track murder attempt by Porche driver Richard Hughes.
    Hughes should be banned from any kind of racing permanently... Seldom have I seen such a clearly deliberate act of trying to hurt another driver on track...
    Luckily Langeveld wore his HANS device.
