Diesel should be banned from Le Mans!

And what happened to the Rebellions? :(

It shouldn't be banned, it has it's place of course. All fuel types should be given EQUAL footing to compete. Petrol, diesel, LPG, electric, hybrid, whatever - all should have the ability to equally compete for victory, rather than everything that isn't diesel being crippled.
 
Over the course of the race (the last 10 hours or so), I've just been watching the Murphy Prototypes P2 car slowly make it's way up the pack... It was 23rd earlier, it's 14th now. :D And now my stream is turning crappy... :grumpy: Pretty much every stream on the first page (of this thread) are terrible for me...

It should be a requirement to sound good, is all I'm saying. The sound of the Audi is just pathetic. I like the car, but absolutely hate the sound.

I like the variety, some people think the Audi sounds good. I don't. I prefer the Corvettes and Aston Martins. The old Aston Martin Lola was the best sounding LMP in recent years by miles. Then again the best sounding cars were Group C...Sauber V8s, Jaguar V12s, Porsche flat-sixes, Mazda rotary scream...:drool:

Whiney gearboxes should be banned!!! Only people with "fingernails on a chalkboard" fetish could possibly enjoy that.

You mean the awesome whine of a sequential box? I LOVE THAT! Especially on a V8 Supercar...the low roar of the engine and the gearbox whine comes up in the background...:drool:

Speaking of sound...brief clip of the Corvette leaving the pits onboard...oh that's my eargasm for the morning :drool:
