nope, does not stand a chance if the Prodrive 550 Maranello lasts to the finish...it was almost 10seconds a lap faster in pre-qualifying!

Make a change for a Ferrari to win

pre qualifying means nothing at all, allot of the drivers just give the car a run and change the setup, theyre not gonna risk damaging the cars before qualifying, and in FIA GT the ferrari never wins, its only won a few times, the vipers and lister stroms always win

eh???? that makes a lot of sense....

Unlike you Viperman most of us who are going to Le Mans don't give a toss who wins, we go for the atmosphere and the party....


I hope the Ferrari wins - if anything it would make a nice change...

First off whats a 'Lister Stroms', secondly you are contradicting yourself - whats with the it never wins, its only won a few times comment ????

The 550 is a new car the Viper has been racing for 6/7 years. Theres 1 new 550, theres about 8 Vipers entered...so for sure it is not likely to win. But it would sure be good to see it win and bet it sounds fantastic.

PS Vettes are favourite this year anyhow

yeah it would be good to see it win, but VIPERS ALWAYS COME FIRST for me, and the ferrari dont sound that nice, they are too loud, if anyone went to the FIA GT meeting at silverstone a few months ago they will know what i mean, my fave sounding cars are the TVR speed12 viper GTS-R and porsche 911 GT3-R

I love Vipers, Vipers are the best GT cars, other cars are to loud,Vipers win all the races, Vipers do 200mph (my arse) Vipers sound the best.... blah blah blah

I can understand and appreciate that you like them, but it's almost all you ever post James, don't you have any other interests?

I like all cars and although I own a TVR I don't just want TVR to win everything and I don't think they will ever win Le Mans either... The GT Ferrari's I have heard sound awesome... to loud???? Isn't that the bloody point?, you should hear the Panoz mate....that really is loud!!!
