Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

Also, back in the day, everyone drove their car to Le Mans. Many of 'em didn't have a car to drive home.

The failure rate was insane - like 80+% didn't complete the race.

I can imagine in the days of 60 years ago and before that the 24 straight hours of driving at the limits would wear out the parts and breakdowns were fairly common, and parts were not really mass produced like they are now, most of the stuff they did to build the HP on those motors was home made, I believe

Racing improves the breed.

All that racing tech trickles down to what you have in your car.

Some of us buy cars closer to their racing counterparts. It's kinda fun watching the racing when you can say, "I have one of those!" (Or close enough to one of 'em.)

Hell yeah, pushing the limits helps improve the design tremendously by revealing the flaws that stress brings out where they may have not appeared without the stresses of racing, especially a 24 hour non stop race. How can taking what is learned in those conditions not lead to improvements for everybody else's vehicles going forward?
