I can't wait for January. It sounds cool as hell.
Will the big holes in the fender tops be the next trend in Porsche street race design ?
Glad to see Porsche back in IMSA ,
hopefully they do not have a IMSA race the same weekend and the bring it to 2023 Rennsport
Never expected a Porsche to sound like that.
Wonder if they will make a street car spinoff.

They may be required by the regulations. I know something like that is required for WEC.
Will this year be the hard cut off for DPi or will the next Daytona 24 have a mix of DPi and LMDh?
BMW has their car at the festival as well, it just happens to be a hundred feet in the air atop their sculpture (which at first I thought was the same as they have done in the past but is just similar).
Way cool. I think I will miss the "old school" DPI cars. I think I heard on one of the IMSA radio broadcasts that the current outgoing DPIs (maybe at Laguna Seca?) were turning laps a couple seconds faster than the LMDH cars were testing.
I'm super excited to see so many manufacturers getting into the top level of endurance racing.
Im looking forward to (hopefully) seeing this at the 24 this year. The hopefully being me. And I really want a GRM ticket.
I'm hearing a hint of V8 wonderfulness
