See what a *whole lot* of manufacturer support can do for a team? Supposedly the rear-end swap took them 7 minutes last year! Kudos to Bentley for sure! A friend told me that there chassis came from

Right, of course. I thought that was understood. You only see the flames when the driver is off the gas. But the things I said about wasted fuel still apply. -STEFAN == OR, the driver was simply "off

Thanks for the additional information. I already understood why it happens but did not know that the endurance guys purposely run that "comfortably rich" setup. Though once you said that, it "clicked

Actually, IIRC, it looked like the Audi rear end swap took a little longer than last year. Last year they were planned and prepared for them well. IIRC, it took ~4 minutes last year. This year, it ju

The thing you have to remember is that it is a good thing to run the engine as rich as possible without costing you a full lap of fuel window. It makes no sense whatsoever to have a lean mixture in t
