Come June, hopefully Aston will be able to build on last year and give the Corvettes the view they should have had last year if it wasnt for technical gremlins.

So they had best get used to this..

What, lapping the Aston... again? The Vettes only managed to lap them 16 times last year.

''Technical Gremlins'' - to coin a phrase....''To finish first, first you have to finish'' The Corvettes have managed this 3 times in the last 4 years at Le Mans. If my memory serves me correctly both C6-R's failed to finish Sebring in '05, as one of the vettes was taken out by a porsche 911 whilst leading the class, whilst the other suffered a shattered brake disk...... '' To finish first, first you have to finish.''

If the Aston's build on last year they may win, but they will never sound as good as the 'vettes V8s

Sebring yesterday, well done to the C6-R for a fine 1 lap victory over the Aston DBR9 in class, and a great 3rd place overall......

Well done to the Audi R10 - nice win first time out, though none of the commentators liked how quiet it was.

HAha to Porsche, both cars failing in LMP2 and not even winning GT2 (good work Panoz).

God I'm feeling tired now after staying up watching it live.
