Why is this allowed?

Mazda was dumb enough to run a 2.0 I4 for 24 hours.

Nevertheless, the cadillac is just on a league of its own. Expect BoPs in the future.

Mazda on suicide watch.

Glorious LS master race proves once again more big = more gud

Cadillac = goat

This.
Anyone heard what exactly failed on the Mazda? I only saw that it caught fire

That's a shitty excuse. Porsche ran a 2.0 and won LeMans twice in a row.

It's just a generic McLMP design at this point.

V4 turbo with hybrid system vs I4 turbo with no hybrid system.

There is a big difference there.

le balance of power detuned 6.2L totally fair lads

It's an LT not LS.

>Mazda loses from running a tiny turbo engine

Serves them right for being displacelets. They should stay out until they can finish the new rotary.

Thats not why they lost.
I fact they were 5th over all and in class.
A fire stopped them.

Even if the car didn't catch fire, it still wouldn't have won. Cadillac BTFO'd everyone

Correct. But mazda is still doing awesome things. And this was the debut of that engine too.

>A fire stopped them.
What's up with Mazda racecars and catching fire? You'd think after they lost the Furai they'd make sure this wouldn't happen again.

Shit happens

But does it have to?

Well yeah.
Why wouldnt it?

I dunno, karma?

how can all these fancy direct injected dual overhead cam prototypes lose to a brand new chassis with a pushrod motor?

Cadillac=Chassis Gods

Agreed. Even if it wasn't ultra competitive it's nice to see competition and new ideas

There's a reason why industrial engines that need to run 24/7 are so big and "underpowered". Bigger engines are more reliable more or less.

Dallara made the chassis

Yes Mazda make shit.

These races are for tests. Now they know shit doesn't work right and needs updates.

>tfw no V4 car

Damn those designers and their insistance on sleep hoods.

I'm not sure the exact cause but it was an oil fire and he was leaking oil before he caught fire
