2014 United Sports Car Championship

[AnAL0G]

Edit, no you're right.

 

[01GTP]

I think all the major differences are in here: http://audi-motorsport-blog.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/how-to-spot-audi-r16-part-3-audi-r8.html

I'm not sure if there are any big changes to that since the merger (some of the new Daytona GT cars seem to have side windows now).

Thanks for that.

Do you know where to find more of those for other makes of cars?

Here are some wallpapers from testing.

Tweet I found on the page:

"Been taking online tests to determine where I fall on the political spectrum: turns out I'm insane."

Well, that was random

No not yet

 

[Infinital-NG]

I watched the first episode when it was on discovery. Hoping at some point the rest will either come on discovery or end up on netflix.

I watched the whole thing and it was ok, you guys aren't really missing much...

Half way through the 2nd part it mentions he's currently working on a documentary for the Velocity network leading me to believe the one you posted isn't the one we've been talking about

 

[01GTP]

The article posted states that they are in final production of episode 5.
Is that possibly what you are talking about?

It was also posted in April, a few months before it was even shown on TV, that one you posted is an older mini series Eurosport did, however looky what I found... On the same channel no less.



The Velocity watermark is a dead giveaway. Here's the channel if anyone is interested for all the other parts

Hmmm... Can't believe this hasn't been posted already...

 

[Mac K]

I don't know why /Drive has it on their channel when Brumos uploaded it to theirs a couple months ago..

 

[Wilbur]

I'm curious if anyone knows about RumBum if they are racing Audi or Porsche at Rolex 24?

I hope they rent the Audi again, but with the grid caps, it seems all one-off teams have been given the Irish salute

 

[01GTP]

Another Daytona test for DP's announced.

"This test will be looking at the changes to the tire and aerodynamics made by Continental Tire and IMSA to correct the problem seen last month."

Also the Roar before schedule.

Since Andy Priaulx is leaving DTM for 2014, he'll be driving the BMW Z4 in the USCC... I wish him the best of luck

 

[tbwhhs]

I'm surprised this hasn't been posted yet. I guess everyone is too busy playing GT6.

[Diehardracer]

So many entries have been announced I literally have been unable to keep pace but the entry list on the USCC website above. But I have been reading the full entry list so far and one thing strikes me. The #97 AMR Vantage of Turner, Hansson and Dalla Lane. It says they are doing the NAEC but on the Wikipedia entry list they are doing just the Rolex 24 hours.

Are they doing all the NAEC or just the Rolex 24 hours?

 

[R0ssingt0n]

If it says NAEC on the IMSA website it's probably best to go with that 👍 Wikipedia isn't always the most reliable...

 

[cnd01]

The Coyote Delta ADR bodywork is supposed to look more like an LMP as per a racer article. Looks like we're seeing a FRANKEN-PROTOTYPE http://www.racer.com/coyote-cars-delta-motorsport-relationship-progressing/article/324467/

 

[hawkeye122]

I agree with Dowson. A DP should win at Daytona. Alternatively, a P2 should win at Sebring.

I'm very excited to see the new Coyote. Really hoping that can open up the ALMS people to how solid the DP chassis and engine are, and hopefully the Grand Am people will see just how cool you can make a race car look. With this partnership, Delta-ADR and AXR are doing more for the unity of the series than anyone else. A European P2 team and a DP team coming together to make progress is such a breath of relief after all of the hate flowing both directions.

No idea if it has been mentioned but Bill Auberlen will partner Andy P in the #55 Team RLL Z4 and in the #56 is Dirk Muller and John Edwards.

Also Joey Hand has been confirmed as the Additional Driver for the #3 Corvette Racing Chevy Corvette C7.R car.

Such a shame that being so new to the USCC I don't know any of the teams from the card that were filmed. I only knew the #5 car which is Action Express Racing.

The Blue DP is Spirit of Daytona. The Orange Corvette DP is 8Star. The Orange Ford DP is Michael Shank Racing. The white DP when the guy was by the fence was Starworks motorsports. The black and white LMP2 is Project Libra The Patron LMP2 is ESM. The turquoise and yellow Aston Martin is Aston Martin racing. The black Aston Martin is The Racers Group (TRG). The yellow BMW is Turner Motorsports. The other BMWs are RLL. The white viper is Riley racing/Ben Keating. The yellow viper is SRT motorsports. I can't help you on all the Audis because they're all silver for the time being, but the teams are Paul Miller and Flying Lizard. The black 458 is SMP motorsports. The red Ferrari is Risi I believe, but I'm not sure. The Porsches are hard to tell as well. Teams are Magnus racing, Muehlner Motorsports, JDX, Konrad Motorsports, and I think Dempsey was there as well. The PC class had a few cars. I know CORE Autosport was there. Starworks had a car too. I don't remember off the top of my head if any more PC teams showed up.

Man I love multy class racing, but that post right there can be extremely confusing for new comers and the casual fan.
I wish there was only 2 classes, yes I know everyone has their own reasons and favorites. But it should be just 2 classes, one GT class and one Protototype class.
