More test day photos

[lowdrag]

All the marshals have gone and we have the house to ourselves once again. Here are a few more. I looked at todays paper and there is nothing in real terms between the Peugeots or the Audis, but of course Aston had serious problems, one doing two laps before the motor went and the other but 13 laps - and that not at all quickly. They were pacjking their garage up to return to England very early. Anyway, here are a few more photos:-

Thanks for sharing these Lowdrag. How low do the Audi's look! I like how fat the F458's look from the rear and the Aston looks quite good from behind as well imo.

The FLM cars were allowed to take part in Test Day. Also, there were two LMP2 cars that aren't even on the reserve list, a Level 5 HPD-Lola coupe and a TDS Racing Oreca Nissan.

I think the 430's look fantastic in Race form whereas the new 458's look cack IMO.

Loving the Audi, 458's, Evora and the Vantage looks stunning in race form.

Really with the LMPs didn't have those fins on. They would look sensational without them.

The front of the 458 doesn't work as well does it, maybe if it had a differently designed bumper and bonnet it would look much better.

Certainly but hey it's a racer and looks better than the road going version.... that's not hard though IMO

Astons both GT's and LMP's
Corvettes are best looking LM racers IMO.

Great pics thanks

Is it only closed cockpit LMP1 cars that have to have the vertical stabilzer?

depends if the car is "grandfathered" or not... i.e. if it is an old design modified slightly for the new regs it doesn't need a fin... if it is new it does... that is the rule of thumb

I like the oak pesca's, hpd plus the zyteks the kronos lmp1 is the tops though
