Has your car manufacturer ever won a formula 1 championship?
No. Why would I care if it did?
>>14940683
Yes I drive that most storied formula 1 pedigree car the Renault Megane.
>>14940756
>Renault
Least reliable F1 company
Fuck if I know, I drive a Saturn
>>14940683
My car manufacturer once won 24 hrs of lemons.
I don't know, doubt it
Yes, I actually own a Red Bull. Several to be exact.
>Formula 1
My car manufacturer has the most LeMans wins
>>14940866
Mazda
>>14940891
Audi, actually
>>14940952
Porsche has the most wins. Audi is second and Ferrari in third
yasss
total performance was rad
>>14940977
Ding ding ding
>implying formula 1 is relevant
How to tell if your car is relevant power rankings:
>Your car is the production model of a production based GT series (GT3)
>Your car is the homologation special of anything ever
>Your car is the production model of a semi-silhouette based GT series (GTLM/GTE)
>Your car is the production model of a production based touring car series, but isn't also a complete shitbox in reality (WTCC/TC1/S2000, WRC, GroupN/R4)
>Your car is the production model of a silhouette based series (DTM, Super GT)
>
>You bring a stock Twingo to the track because why not
>
>Your car manufacturer has won a touring car series
>Your car manufacturer has won a prototype class
>Your car manufacturer has won a Formula 1 championship
I probably missed something, but that's the gist of it.

Is GTLM more prestigious than GT3 or vice versa? are GT3 cars closer to production than GTLM?
Does Pirelli World Challenge count towards GT3? (there are GT3 Porsches and Bentleys in it)
>>14941093
GTLM is more prestigious, being mostly factory efforts competing in top-tier GT car racing. They also represent the top GT class at Le Mans, GTE Pro.
GT3 cars are closer to production. I mean, look at the diffuser on the Ford GT GTLM. The suspension can be modified on GTLM cars. GT3 cars have to use the stock pickups. PWC GT cars /can/ conform to GT3 spec, but there's also cars like the TLX with it's fucking bonkers longitudinal TTV6 with AWD. It doesn't win, but it's production based and cool as fuck.

>fiat owns ferrari
>ferrari is the most successful F1 team in the planet
Technically yes.
no, but my car's manufacturer once made a notoriously underpowered and unreliable engine for F1.
i drive a civic
yes
senna
>>14940683
no but its not like f1 does any benefit
>>14940683
honda civic, here. ya, F1, BTCC, probably a bunch of other shit too
>>14942175
>f1 goes turbo
>so does everyone else
or semi-auto gearboxes
or dsg
or traction control
or carbon fiber
c'mon you dumbass
>>14942181
>implying there weren't millions of turbo'd cars before F1
c'mon you dumbass
>>14942226
because wrc made it popular for middle class sport peasantmobiles, now f1 made turbocharging popular for the rich classes, like ferrari, amg, and various english brands
>>14942181
most of the gud stuff gets b&
and only sees the road in high price limited runs
it took 80 years for dohc to make it to normal cars
things are not moving so quickly
>>14942226
>>14942235
F1 actually employed turbos before WRC.
Then the WRC made it popular.
>>14940683
>Has your car manufacturer ever won a formula 1 championship?
Yes, but c'mon...
>Still caring about Formula 1
yes but more important has it ever won dakar
>>14942537
>mfw didn't even know this existed
>suzuki
fuck no
>>14941027
>Your car is the production model of a semi-silhouette based GT series (GTLM/GTE)
Gte is now gt3 ( I think ). Gtlm is more production and based than 'semi silhoutte' I believe. They must use the production chassis, suspension geometry, and block (usually).
So certainly not Street legal. But all 'bolt on'.
I doubt it, but maybe they have
>>14941027
So I'm reading this post and like yeah ok I guess you got a point and all and then suddenly
>You bring a stock Twingo to the track because why not
And I'm just like what?
Yes. But who gives a shit about F1?
>>14940984
that isn't a cosworth
If you count the partnership with Lotus and Cosworth then on a technicality yes.
If you count the V8 Supercars: Fuck yeah cunt.
>>14943323
It was probably just a joke, if you read it like "you actually take your car to the track" I think it's a fair point.
>>14940977
Ferrari is third and they still don't care for it.
>>14940775
>Least reliable F1 company
wat
you literally couldn't be more wrong.
>>14944033
Yup, Ferrari conveniantly don't care about it at all
>>14940683
no, wait, yes kinda

Mercedes also make buses...
yep

and a lola at le mans
>>14940683
>implying f1 even matters
>>14942160
Subaru didn't make it, they only slapped their name on an engine that Motori Moderni designed and built.
>>14940775

I don't think Suzuki ever won anything m8
>>14945606

>>14945612
Huh I had no idea... I knew they did some WRC back in 06 but wasn't very successful because lol Japanese economy.
>>14940683
Yep, McLaren Ford son, also all the cosworth teams in the 60s and 70s
>>14945593
There's a few more members of the "dominated so hard I got banned" club.
My car manufacturer has never been in formula 1. The engine in my car is from company that has has been. Never won formula 1 championship, but it has won 39 world championship in motorcycle racing.
Well, I have no car since I'm in europe and live inside a big city.
Parents though:
>F1
Mercedes
>LeMons
Audi
>Rally
VW
They are closet germanfags.
Toyota won multiple WRC championships but blew chunks at Le Mans and F1
>>14940775
>Least reliable F1 company
Bitch, do you even watch F1?
There will be a Ferrari with no engine power and a Mercedes with no breaks before a Renault even sputters.
Although the Renault will lose.
>>14944196
In the past couple of years yes to some extent (lolHonda)
Before that, lonope.
Renault powered cars 4 championships on the trot before the current regulations, as well as 2005 and 2006 championships, not to mention the 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1996 Williams were Renault powered, as well as the Benetton in 1995
>>14944683
cosworth, negro. also ford has won in literally every form of racing.
AMG Merc cars have the most mediocre drivers.
If you ever look at sector times, it's always Ferrari coming ahead of Mercedes.
Merc cars are faster on the straight.
Anyone can put their food down and go fast in a line.
>chebby
My maufacturer has won loadse indycar sports car and nascar stuff does that count?
>>14942588
Yeah, the chassis and suspension geometry is exactly the same.
GT3 teams receive the bare naked chassis directly from factory.
>>14946449
Why do you think all street racing are highway pulls?
>>14942563
Same here
>>14944223
They never had a full Le Mans run since they focus on F1. Its all about customer cars now.
>>14946449
AMG as a sporting arm sucks. They work like a skunkworks rather than a racing arm for Merc.
>>14940775
I love my laguna, no probs for 8 years and 160.000km
my first car was R19, I sold it at 13y.o. with nearly 400.000km, it was a 1800cc monopoint injection engine and the car's only flaw were exposed torsion bars in the rear
>>14940683
> Ford
Nope.
