Good race. Love being there even if it isn’t the best track.

I think Brown and MiM share some (most) of the blame.

iospace posted:That graphic they showed of results through 62 starts was super loving telling. With maybe the exception of Michael Andretti, those are names you want to be mentioned with. Michael Andretti was one of the best drivers CART produced.

CodFishBalls posted:My take is this isn't HPD, this is Honda Japan/HRC going "you're wasting how much money for what return?!" They aren’t exactly pleased about the 2.4L engine being cancelled (reading between the lines the Chevy engine was not up to par.) and the fact that they had to re-engineer Mahle’s Hybrid system.

IOwnCalculus posted:Pretty much, yes. Marshall Pruett did a bunch of videos last year of the then-brand-new LMDh cars and the Acura with the should've-been-shared engine had a dramatically smaller powertrain than everyone else. Ignoring MSR's tire fuckery, having a drivetrain that small in a car with that much room in a series where you'll get BoP adjustments anyway, isn't inherently an advantage. So everyone else went with much larger engines, both in terms of displacement and overall packaging. Irrespective of that though the Acura was very competitive.
