Did it finish ? Never knew that a TR8 had raced at LM.

Nope, I think it qualified JUST. But was disqualified on some kind of technicality, the magazine seems to be out already by the way. Cheers Steve

Didn't qualify according to the lemans.org web site (but never trust the French).

Technicality being the risk of it rusting away before the end of the race?
