I agree that it is a good thing to have an American team at Le Mans but, what is the real goal of this nascar “experiment”? This is only 1 car and it will not be competitive with any of the other classes and not “official” so what’s the point? now if there were a few nascar type cars that makes more sense because then they have their own race between themselves but just throwing a car out there to get smoked by everyone else… I don’t see the point. My only hope is that they can complete the full 24hrs on the track.

I think the energy recovery system would be a good thing for them to have at Le Mans to see how would be like and work on a Nascar Stock car because that’s why they switched to the sequential transmission, so that Nascar could potential add a hybrid system to the stock cars

In reply to Ben Myatt. Yeah because he wasn’t be able to race And think right to win last year because of all the stuff going on now that he has his contract and everything he’s ready to ride and he’s ready to win the start of all that mess it was going on last year that’s why you couldn’t win

In reply to shoreparty. The beauty of motorsports hybrids is you can run a big V8 with a hybrid....some of the Hypercars and LMP2 in IMSA and WEC run V8s with the ERS systems. You're still gonna get a massive NA V8 but its probably just gonna have regen braking which really changes nothing

I genuinely believe Gibbs wanting to see his grandson win a cup race before he passes is like a bucket list item for him and that it was a huge pushing factor. He knows it will probably take a few years before it happens plus the fact he’s in his 80s you know he’s thinking like that and that he’s pulling the strings to make it happen. Especially since JDs passing he’s probably been reflecting on life even more and then Coy….just further adds fuel to the fire of bucket list items he wants to cross off.

In reply to Chase Maguire. @ninjaXavier3 yeah your probably right because in 2019 when Kyle Busch won his 2nd championship he had racked up 55 wins at that point, and then it took him 3 more years to get 5 more for 60

In reply to Ben Myatt. Proof that gibbs wasn’t giving him what he needed. He just made Richard Childress the top team in the sport besides Hendrick
