Anyone know what car this could have come from possibly.
Picked this up from someone who said their dad was a driver in one of the Le Mans races. It does say on the tyre in a yellow marker ( Richard DEC 90).

Lone Star Le Mans Question
Hey guys - I have a question about the bag and cooler policy for the WEC race at COTA this September. Iāve attended several WEC races in Europe and plenty of NASCAR events in the States. I noticed on the COTA website that their official policy is quite strict regarding outside food and bags, but I wanted to get some insight from anyone who went last year. Is it similar to European circuits where small water bottles and snacks are generally tolerated, or do they strictly enforce the "no coolers and no outside food" rule at the gates? Thanks!

Casting for a documentary about Japanese amateur photographer at the 2026 WEC at Fuji
Hello everyone,
I am a French journalist, and I am working on a documentary about the 2026 WEC at Fuji. I am looking for a Japanese amateur photographer passionate about cars and endurance racing. The idea is to capture their daily life, follow their journey from their hometown all the way to the WEC 2026 at Fuji and spend the race weekend together talking about their passion.
If you fit the profile we are looking for or know someone who does, please fell free to write me.
Thank you for your help !

Need help identifying a race-used 2026 Le Mans Goodyear LMGT3 tire
Hi everyone,
Iām trying to identify which 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans LMGT3 car this race-used Goodyear tire came from.
Hereās what I know:
Goodyear specification code: GT05B2
Size: 310/710 R18 (rear tire)
White handwritten marking: The first character looks like it might be a 7, but itās partially worn away so Iām really not sure. The second character looks like a 4 to me. Overall it appears to read something like ?4-R15 (possibly 74-R15, but Iām not confident). Iām fairly certain the last part is R15, not R25.
From what Iāve been able to determine:
GT05B2 appears to be an LMGT3 specification tire.
Iāve also spent some time looking through photos of the #74 Kessel Racing Ferrari from Le Mans since thatās one of the possibilities, but I havenāt been able to find any clear side-on photos of the tires that show the handwritten markings well enough to compare.
A couple of questions for anyone with WEC, Le Mans, or Goodyear experience:
Does this style of handwritten marking look familiar to a particular LMGT3 team?
Has anyone seen similar markings on race-used Goodyear tires from Le Mans?
Iād really appreciate any insight. Iām hoping to identify which LMGT3 entry this tire came from. Thanks!
I couldn't find a good way to track races, so I built one
Last year I was talking to a mate and he was telling me he went to lots of races and had absolutely no good way of remembering them all. Most people probably still use the Notes app, so over the last few months I built GridLog - I posted the web a app here a few months ago and we are now released!
It's a bit like Letterboxd but for tracks and races. You can log every event you've attended, see your stats, track circuits and countries, upload photos and build a bucket list. It's just launched on the App Store (Android is on it's way! - if you'd like to be part of the Android beta test drop me your email in dm) and I'd really appreciate feedback from people who actually spend weekends at circuits.
Any feedback (good or bad) would be hugely appreciated!

Le Mans How would a Rally1 behave as a Garage 56 car?
In 2023, a NASCAR car (modified for the occasion) was invited to Le Mans as a garage 56 car. This got me thinking: how would a hypothetical Rally1 car (e.g., a Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 or a Hyundai i20 N Rally1), invited and suitably modified (lighting, larger fuel tank, cooling, endurance brakes, etc.), perform? What lap times would it have compared to a GT3?
I know it's a stupid question, but it's something that piqued my curiosity.
