Cadillac: Amount of code to run an LMDh car is “daunting”

Cadillac will have three V-LMDh cars in action at the Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona, two run by Chip Ganassi Racing, the other by Action Express Racing, as IMSA enters a new era of hybrid prototypes.

Following testing at Daytona earlier this month, Klauser stated: “The sheer amount of code and software that has been written to run this car is daunting. We cannot have enough software engineers working right now because everything on the car is connected – things that we never had to worry about influencing each other in the past with the DPi or other race programs. Now, if one thing is slightly off, it’s not going to run or turn or brake or whatever it needs to do.
