    Supercars are so boring

    yes its on Facebook,

    but 2 minutes of proper doorhandle to doorhandle racing...

    maybe the supers should go back to 8" rims...

    Yep. The only racing I watch these days is Goodwood. I subscribe to their yt channel. Minis, Alfas, Capris, bloody great Galaxies, £5,000,000 + E Types, Ferrari GTO FFS, all going at it hammer and tongs. And it's a great circuit.

    I've pretty much given up following it. Under Gen 3 rules next year they are reducing the aero so hope that helps a bit with over taking.
    TCR is good to watch. A few young guys from my club have moved up into TCR, much cheaper than supercars and great racing.

    Silhouette racing sucks. It always has. I get that it is supposed to level the playing field, but racing used to be more about innovation than advertising.

    In the latest Enforcer and The Dude video that dropped yesterday they discussed Gen 3 for a bit.

    It seems not a whole lot of info floating around, they also mentioned less aero.

    Speaking of SuperCars - what happened to Pickles2 - normally if anyone criticised his beloved SuperCars he would be on here with all guns blazing.

    Hasn't been on here since May last year. He's not the only one. Noticed quite a few who have vanished while I was away.

    Maybe they could cut some grooves in the track, run some electrified metal strips alongside, and control the whole show from the pits. It would be just about as interesting.. And they could carry sponsor artwork..
