Autoblog has reported that there will be no Grid Girls at the 2015 World Endurance Championship.

What do you think?

Personally, I don't really see a need for Grid Girls and they're a little tacky. I'm an avid MotoGP follower and I feel that their presence on the grid just seems a little strange.

I hope this is a PranK !

Haha... I see what you did there...

I wonder what the driving force behind this change is?

If it's feminism, which most likely is, and I'm with you PranK on not really needing them as it is mostly about the cars. But what's next? The Environment is up there in the hot-topic list with Feminism... will this open the gates for EPA governed motorsport?

Watch this space.

This is so sexist! I can't believe men are stopping women from being apart of motorsport.

I think all women should go braless or topless to show these men that they can not and will not tell you what you can and can't do!

About time. It's a totally pointless idea.

If you want to look at chicks try the internet. Apparently there are sites out there with chick pics. Some of them don't even have clothes on.

But are they anywhere near a car?

google says there are approx. 69,600,000 choices for "naked girl near car". I've clicked through the first hundred few hits, just for research purposes, of course.

Try telling me this site doesn't provide a public service!!

Those poor Grid Girls missing out on potential income. Then the Feminists complain that women are still earning less money than men.

Lose/Lose

Exactly. Especially with motogp, if the teams are going to pay someone to stand there holding an umbrella then they might as well pay someone who's easy on the eye.

You can go on about how tacky it is, etc, but the teams are also in the marketing business and having promo girls would generate more merchandise sales than some sweaty fat bloke with a beard.

I don't see the problem with it at all, it's entertainment, what next? taking the cheerleaders away from the footy? ha! good luck

But then again we live in a time where everyone is offended by everything ever, even if they have no involvement with it at all

Aren't a lot of the MotoGP "Grid Girls" wives or significant others of the riders in a lot of cases?

    • Literally looks like direct port nitrous haha
    • They are in fact just nozzles. They are there only to produce a spray pattern and limit flow. The injector itself is what I use to control flow to the 7x nozzles. My old system had no injector and only PWM the pump. This lead to a lot of inconsistencies, and poor atomization at low pressure when the pump was ramping up. 
    • With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.
