I agree the J/J combo has a chance at the title, but I think Jeanette may be as quick Bouchut in an LMPC car. They both have about the same number of poles and fastest race laps this season so far.

nope i thought the 1:04 was a dry time, but i checke and 55sec is the dry time, so my comment was pointless

Speed-King · 23 Jul 2010, 19:13 (Ref:2731372)

Will the prototypes be automatically grided in front of the GT-cars or could we end up with a GT-car in the front row if conditions change in between the two qualifying sessions?

They will start in qualifying order, if conditions change to the point that LMP qualifying can't take place then i guess the GT qualifying will be discarded aswell, and regulation 9.8.4 will take over.

hindy spot on my thinking of the gt2,
gt2 is ment to be race cars as close to roadcars not prototps with 47 waivers

Purist · 23 Jul 2010, 19:20 (Ref:2731377)

Yeah, but then again, 95% of those waivers are probably for things that, unless the guys spent a week explaining them to you, you wouldn't know or even be able to tell the difference anyway.

Would that still be your thinking if it was the Ferrari 430's that had 47 waivers?

Of course not, he would be telling hindy to stop whining

arakis · 23 Jul 2010, 19:23 (Ref:2731380)

well i guess the 5% is what matteres then,

i know that small waivers are not that important, but getting 47 off them, it is reasonable to asume that at least 1 or 2 give an unfair addvantige

P.S. I happen to know its the corvette

I have it on very good authority Ferrari has no waivers on the 430 at all! Hence why teams fear the 458

Purist · 23 Jul 2010, 19:25 (Ref:2731382)

Now Hindy is literally counting off how many cars are in each class, on air, lol.

hoppelemine · 23 Jul 2010, 19:26 (Ref:2731383)

Has anyone found any benefit of the new Flash version of T&S over the original one? Seems to have no advantages and need to figure out what all the new shading of the lines represents?

didnt realise its public knowledge, but yeah I heard the same from different sources.

NightStalk3r · 23 Jul 2010, 19:38 (Ref:2731392)

Considering how much standing water there is the GT cars are going pretty damn quick.
