Sounds like you've packed the car up already
and waiting for the start your engines prompt.

I was very bored yesterday.

[Tyre Smoke]

Whoohoo! The Lizards are coming!

Go Lizards!





Okay, I know as a TVR owner it is verboten to like Porkers, but I just love the Flying Lizard logo and team from nowhere image they have.

I'll be the short fat bloke wandering around with the Lizard Motorsport T-Shirt on

The list is based on prelimenary qualifying from last seasons race schedule. As the Audi R10 is yet to race it is also yet to qualify. Mind you it shouldn't have too many problems. I think we could be toasting our first diesel Le Mans winner. ("WHATS WRONG WITH THE WORLD"!) We could see petrol beaten by diesel, AAAARRRGGH!!!!!
Before long we may have to rename the web site. Dieselheads.com springs to mind, lol

[t1grm]

Is it me or are the LMP classes completely stacked with French privateer chassis? Surprise surprise Hopefully they'll get some other manufacturers in the final list or I'll be following GT1 as the main race.

IIRC The French tried to do this in the 70's with the group B rules, Porsche spotted a loophole, came along with the 917 and cleaned up

Which reminds me I don't see the new Porsche LMP2 on that list either.

As I have two Audi TDIs in my drive you can guess what I'm hoping for.....

No chance, not with four Aston's racing this year.
They were much quicker that the corvettes last year but couldn't
stay out for long enough.
My money is on one of the Aston's to pick up the class win

[W333]

No TVRs yet?

[shagga]

Heard over the weekend that the Astons will have larger restrictors allowed and a 50Kg reduction in weight compared to the Vette's. Not sure how true it is but if so seems a bit unfair. Anyone know for sure?
