Is both the #12 and #38 JOTA Porsches going to be in the gold Hertz livery? If anybody knows.

Another nice thing to look forward to. This is going to sound so much better. Pity it won't be ready for Le Mans but it's also nice to spread the new things out to keep it interesting.

The car in its current form looks very reliable and fast so no wonder they're not rushing things with remaining updates. Still can't wait to hear the updated sound

If Porsche is quick now, just imagine how much quicker they’ll go with the updates

Porsche and particularly Penske have found something this year.

After all, he co-wrote the book "The Unfair Advantage" with Mark Donahue., on how to get the most out of any car or driver.

And now Porsche might not have their upgraded engine after all.
https://www.motorsport.com/wec/news/...gine/10611121/ The current one is working just fine! |

This made me laugh since it was a topic on the forum in the past. In a DSC article Jensen said this about their Jota car vs the Penske cars:

Further confirmation that a new crankshaft is rather unlikely. But there may be more updates to the car, this time focused on performance (all updates for 2024 were for reliability officialy). |

I wondered if they might scrap the new crankshaft plan after a strong start to the year. I hope not. The current engine sounds so bland.

Well, the speed is still in there - in the #6 at least.
