A draft of the 2014 LMP regulations have been released for all you die hard racing fans.

Big Honking Fins are here to stay
Big Honking Holes are will remain with an alternative. Either on top of the front and rear fenders (current implementation), or on the inboard vertical faces of the fenders
LMP1 will be split into 2 categories, LMP-L (privateers) and LMP-H (hybrids).
Blow diffusers have been banned. Exhaust exits must be in relation to the diffuser trailing edge.
A maximum of 7 gears (up from 6).
Most importantly, open top LMP cars will be no more.

Only in the form of a bolt-on cosmetic mod...that hides the crook.

In other F1 news, Massa can go back to driving poorly since he has renewed until the end of 2013.

That's not entirely true. 4 of them are pushing the car because its too low to go up the ramp into the garage. Two of them are putting fans into the brake ducts to blow brake dust off the awesome wheels.

For you guys going to NJMP on Friday... a little video of what NOT to do when you have an ABS failure. Lap starts at about the 9min mark.

Steve is an excellent driver and one of the tracks instructors, but he still ****ed up and did something wrong. Does anyone (other than Thai, Aaron and maybe Pete) know what he did/didn't do correctly?
