Rob Hall Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 A few min ago while watching the coverage during cars entering pit lane, I noticed an old Mazda B-series pickup in red track service livery parked at the end of the pit boxes...

niteowl7710 Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Studio 27 is doing a multi-media 1/24 "kit" of the 919 Porsche.
935k3 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Posted May 3, 2015 Studio 27 is doing a multi-media 1/24 "kit" of the 919 Porsche. Yes it is available at mshobbies for $189.00. I wish I had that to spend, love the car. I am hoping if Porsche or Toyota win Lemans we will get a kit of it. i would be happy with a curbside.
martinfan5 Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Looking forward to the debut of this one: If someone does multi media kit of that one, say Studio 27, I might just part with the cash for it.
Gt fan Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Profile 24 is doing the Nissan ....the Studio 27 Porsche is sold out . I order one about a month ago. If you can find one I would by it asap
lordairgtar Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Looking at these WEC cars...they all look the same, well, at least the Nissan and the Porsche do. Becomng like F1 maybe? All those cars look alike to me.

All those cars look alike to me. Those cars are called prototypes, and share similar body characteristics, so in same ways, yes, they might all look like. Edited May 5, 2015 by martinfan5

All those cars look alike to me. Under the skin is another thing. The Nissan is front engine, front wheel drive, with a KERS system than can make it four wheel drive when necessary. . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_GT-R_LM_Nismo Edited May 4, 2015 by Draggon
mr moto Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 I don't find that they look alike at all. Anyway, I haven't kept up with endurance racing in many years but maybe I should start - those things are WILD looking!
935k3 Posted May 5, 2015 Author Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) These cars are not the same and there is so much going on you have to read up on the new rules. The technology is amazing and it will contribute to cars we drive in the future, which is more than you can say about the stuff NASCAR runs, V8's all the same size Porsche- V4 turbo- gas AWD AUDI- V6 Turbo- diesel AWD Toyota- V8 -gas AWD Nissan- V6 twin turbo - gas FWD all hybrids.

Chuck Most Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 I clicked on this thread expecting to find nice, relaxing posts on aromatherapy, mud baths, and sauna sessions. Still, I'm not disappointed to see the actual content is about endurance racing.
