Is That A Neon Cucumber, Or Is Nic Jönsson Just Happy To See Us?
Is That A Neon Cucumber, Or Is Nic Jönsson Just Happy To See Us?-September 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:47

Krohn Racing just unveiled their gorgeous new Ligier JS P2 Judd race car that will compete in the European Le Mans Series and select Tudor United SportsCar races next year. Professional Swede Nic Jönsson (left) seems particularly excited about this car. Bless your heart, that does appear to be a pants-bulge.

Is it really, though? Not having to deal with this issue myself, Hardibird fielded the question to the professional cupologists over at Deadspin, to which they said:

"I'm gonna say not a boner." - Tom Ley

"Not a boner, pants just riding too high." - Kyle Wagner

"Racing dude just dresses right." - Samer Kalaf

So, there you have it. Nothing more than a tightly tailored race suit.

For what it's worth, nomex cups are not a thing (despite nearly every dude who's ever worn a five-point harness's wish that they were) and, well, look at this car.

It's built by Onroak, powered by a Judd V8, and just plain looks mean.

To Jönsson's credit, I'd be super excited about this, too.

This has to be one of the best looking LMP2 race cars in existence, particularly in Krohn's favorite shade of green.

Giant Flies Of Le Mans Are Wreaking Havoc On Corvette Racing's Camera
Giant Flies Of Le Mans Are Wreaking Havoc On Corvette Racing's Camera
One of the most unexpected things I’ve discovered from my first trip to Le Mans is that this part of France has heinous, giant flies everywhere, particularly on muggy, sweaty days like today. It looks like I’m not alone in total fly hate mode. Number 64, clean your onboard camera....

Behind The Scenes Of Nissan's Crazy NISMO Le Mans Pit And Paddock
Le Mans has some of the most pimptacular pit areas of any race on the planet, and newcomer Nissan’s hospitality and work space is no exception. In addition to an extremely organized garage, there’s a full suite with a DJ, a smoothie bar and a slide. That’s right: a giant...

Audi Creates Obstacle Course On Track After Botched Pass
Remember the Aggro-crag? Yeah, you do. If you didn’t, that’s okay. Pieces of Loïc Duval’s broken Audi definitely chunked off in a way that resembles the star of Nickelodeon’s “Guts.” The number 8 Audi caught up with traffic and just couldn’t quite pull off an ambitious pass around a Ferrari....

Porsche Dressed Like Rocketship Imitates Rocketship, Burns
Porsche’s current livery reminds me just a bit of the Space Shuttle: all whites, blacks and greys. Unfortunately, the Space Shuttle can pull off big fiery rockets in the back, and a terrestrial Porsche 911 RSR cannot. Porsche Catches On Fire At Le Mans 2015 The number 13 Rebellion Racing...

This Isn't The Kind Of Open Door Policy Nissan Wanted
Nissan has lovingly to their ambitious LMP1 program, however, I don’t think they meant for this one to open while the car was in use. Oops. Lucas Ordóñez’s left side door on the number 21 GT-R LM Nismo popped open after his first pit stop for fuel. It failed to...

Half Of This Porsche Is Made Of Lego Bricks
Behold the ultimate Lego kit: half of a Porsche 911 RSR! Over 380,000 bricks went into making half of this car, and it’s one of the most detailed and wonderful Lego builds yet. The differences between the two sides on this display for the 24 Hours of Le Mans mean...
