All The Cool Cars From Today's Nürburgring 24 Practice
All The Cool Cars From Today's Nürburgring 24 Practice-April 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:42

That’s a Motörhead 1 Series at the Nürburgring, and no, there will be no more mention of in this post, because I’ll have plenty about Jim and Co. later.

Also, no Nissan GT-R either, because for some reason, I’m just not interested in them. I know it’s wrong and it’s certainly a great car and a proper racer, plus the one here is engine number 6 of the GT3s, so let’s show it’s most interesting part.

It’s a twin-turbo V6 producing many horsepower, and that’s why it needs a restrictor.

Now that we payed our respects to all of Nismo’s brilliant engineers, let’s move on to my favorites.

Okay, so the Motörhead 1 Series. If there’s one weirdly shaped small BMW to take home, this is it.

The one car everybody wants to beat is the R8. Audi brought plenty of them here just to make sure they dominate the scenery. Seven to be exact. These are not all of them, just the ones with the best liveries.

If an R8 LMS wanted to kick my ass to pulp, I would let it do its job.

Moving on to the widebody LFA. Are there any questions? There shouldn’t be.

Talking of wide bodies, how about the BMW Z4? I’m a sucker for these race cars because the standard Z4 is such a feminine car, I never understood why it tries so hard to look angry. This treatment corrects all the errors.

Talking of errors, there is zero here. Yes, this is an ancient Opel Astra, but it’s also a regular contender here.

I bet the same can be said about this E36. Want lightness? Go old school!

Having said that, it doesn’t get more old school than this Viper. What’s it like in the wet? Crashy would be my guess.

Despite how many times I met Chris Harris, he still doesn’t recognize me. I was waving at him earlier when he was riding his bicycle, but nothing.

No problem, I’m more interested in his Aston anyway.

Staying on the British side, I have no idea how Bentley made the Conti fast enough for GT3, but I love these beasts.

Rotek Racing’s fully badass Audi TT RS would deserve a spot here for the Jalopnik stickers alone, but there’s much more to it.

Do you think you know fake wood when you see some? Gawk at this Renault!

I would hoon the living green hell out of it.

Is the Falken livery the best livery? No. But pretty damn close.

Last but not least, the perfect combination of sweet and mean, Haribo Racing and their beefy SLS. They are doing this so right.

You have to make it here by Saturday, because with such a wide variety of cars competing at the toughest track in the world, this is going to be an epic weekend.

There May Be No F1 German Grand Prix This Year
Bernie Ecclestone's letter to the newspaper claims that a German Formula One Grand Prix even at the back-up venue of Hockenheim won't be "commercially viable" because "attendance has been so low for the past few years." Ouch. Last we heard, the contract for the German Grand Prix went to Hockenheim...

Where Is Porsche's LMP1 Engine Going?
Where Is Porsche's LMP1 Engine Going?
Porsche, more than almost any other Le Mans team, keeps pretty close ties between the engines in its race cars and those in its road cars. So, uh, what's going on with the V4 in the 919 LMP1 hybrid? To back up my earlier claim about road car/race car links,...

Another Rolex 24 Team Screwed Up The Math; Loses Second Place Finish
IMSA today that BAR1 Motorsports' #16 car, a hilariously liveried "SpongeBob SquarePants" Prototype Challenge entry, failed to meet the minimum drive time required for one of their amateurs at the Rolex 24 at Daytona. IMSA isn't cutting them a break on it, either. Because it's a flub concerning an amateur...

Ken Block's 2015 Paint Scheme Is SPACE
Ken Block's 2015 Paint Scheme Is SPACE
Ken Block isn't just content to jump cars into the air. He's going to space. This is his 2015 livery, as seen on his bizonko gajillion horsepower rallycross Fiesta. The graphics are halfway to Lisa Frank. More than that, though, they're a bit of a callback to Ken's wife's rally...
