Le Mans series at Donington

[Zed 44]

Anyone going and is it a good show? Ie. a mini Le Mans 24 hour?

[Dan Friel]

At present there are 18 cars entered, although the rumours are that it's already reduced to 15.. I'll let you make your own decision!

If your interested in the P2 class then yes, If you want to see battles in the other classes then probably not.

Seems most are going to the International GT open instead!

Unfortunately scratch also car 42, and 83 looks dodgy - still be a good weekend though...

Going Friday to see clients - I agree, even though numbers are disappointing (no surprise since split into ELMS & WEC), the sight of P2 cars going down Craner should be awesome.

Was anyone at the 1997 ISRS event at Donington? The inaugural pilot race for the series. It was, I recall, 2.5 hours long and a grand total of 7 cars made the start. Still, with two 333SPs in the field, it was never dull. 6 hours is a long time for 14 cars to circulate but a nice chance to practice your photography and read the latest edition of Autosport, I suppose...

IMSA Performance Matmut are also at Brands Hatch doing GT Open.

They've got two cars; an '11 spec Porsche for GTE Am in ELMS and a brand new 2012 car for GT Open. Ray Narac is listed to drive in both races though...

Now down to 13....

Yeah, I know they have got two RSR's, but as you mentioned Narac is listed in both cars.

Saturday looks a better bet, at least you get to see a variety of racing.
