I like JPM, and if he wins then that's cool. But I can't help but feel that the BMW engine is completely unbalanced. This isn't like Le Mans where factory teams spend more to go faster, this is just bad balance.


Justice after the Porsche years? Where Ganassi was screwed by the illegal Porsche (Brumos 2009). But yeah I do agree on your point.

But in terms of team and fundings Ganassi is street lengths ahead of the other teams, don't forget that either.


Well maybe it's a little justice but it wasn't like Ganassi never won anything either, and I'm a Ganassi fan!

Ganassi may be better funded, but look at the straight line speed. That's all engine. And it isn't like Le Mans where Audi and Toyota develop there own cars - these are customer cars and engines, and the engine isn't balanced correctly. I don't mind a Ganassi win, I'd just prefer if they fought for it rather than drove away from everyone on the straights.


They did fought for it 8) .



But yeah balancing will always be a problem in sports where they want to keep the competition close. Imagine the chaos next year!

And the move he finally got by. That wasn't due to power but Dalziel having to get of his brakes for a GT car.
