Good news: Toyota have confirmed Kamui Kobyashi for their LMP1 program.

Better news: Toyota are running a white/red car instead of the stupid faux-Peugeot livery


Hooray!

It's nobody's fault that both Japan and Germany's racing colors are white.


What we really need is some French and American prototypes in, to add some blue to the mix.

I thought for whatever reason Germany's was Silver but that was just Mercedes.

I think Nakajima is a ok driver, aside from his time in F1. I follow Formula Nippon as well and he's good there.

There is no reason to run a race on the same day as LeMans and the Indy 500, but Bernie does it anyway.

Just because it's a lousy road car doesn't mean it can't be a cool race car. Like, the Audi 90 is a miserable pile of poo poo in pretty much every way (imagine a E30 3-series but really unreliable, heavier,not assembled properly and with plow on understeer) but the IMSA GTO version kicks rear end.

Laguna Seca is one of those tracks that's fantastic to drive but doesn't quite work as a race track because it's next to impossible to overtake on.

It was primarily designed for Motorcycles, no?

I actually love that Yaris. I should also probably point out that I love stupid Time Attack cars too.

I'd agree. When the Group A Formula was abandoned it fell off of a cliff. Group B resonates more with me because of how wacky the cars were.

The Euro Corolla looks 1000 times worse. Which is a shame because the Celica GT4 is probably my favourite Group A car.
