Yes no 911s. Especially after watching today's Le Mans race, the 2017 911 RSR was pathetically slower than the rest of the Pro-GTE class racers like Ferrari 488, Chevy C7.R and Aston Martin Vantage GTE.

Even the older 2016 911 RSR is loser. You mean the 911 RSR, ballasted due to the stupid BOP rule so that Aston Martin could win the race with their unballasted, old Vantage? The #92 that was leading the race until the driver lost it and hit the wall, or the #91 that was up there exchanging P1 of the GTE Pro with Corvette until the last few laps? "Pathetically slower" means that you haven't really seen much of the race, and that you don't know in which conditions of ballasting and restrictors each team was forced to take the start of the race... I haven't seen the night of the race only. The racing action between AM Vantages and the Corvette was fun and exciting especially when both driver made shortcuts in some places was funny.

And no I'm not talking about the #91 911 RSR that got wrecked into the wall by the LMP2 car behind it. But where were the other 911 RSRs? They seemed to have disappeared into the back of the pack 18 hours into the race.

Even the same 2016 911 RSR we have in game was no match for the Ferrari 488 GTEs it battled with in the race. It was struggling on the mulsanne straight.

You are correct about that weight penalty rule though, I think that was what put the 911 RSRs at the back of the pack.

This year was a bit of cheat for Chevy & AM and now I see the LMP1 class as a dead category in WEC and only Porsche seems to be existing there racking up wins like it is easy with only one competitor. Don't even bother with Toyota (they're much better in WRC with Yaris rally car than WEC).

WRC still better to watch and very competitive. It's not even like VW is always winning there is it?
