Title: who do you thinks going to win LMES at Donington
Post by: johnny waring on July 23, 2006, 07:48:08 pm: Im exited!. i think it will be a top weekend at Donington.I heard a rumour that the audi will be there.(lets hope they aren't there)Also pescarolo said they won't be there ???(i've put it on poll incase they change there minds)zytek have signd Johnny Herbert and Stefan Johannsan :o(what a line up!)they will also be going to the petit le mans in Atlanta in October
I bet Jan Lamers was be kicking himself whan alex yoong spun off and cost them 2nd place :(. It will be a swan song for the lister as they are cancelling there LMP1 program :'(. because next year they are making there new GT1 car.

Post by: Andy Zarse on July 24, 2006, 06:21:08 pm: I don't know who's going to win at Donington, Johnny but I do know who won't be getting an A grade in his GCSE English exams! ;) A bit of work on punctuation and spelling required young man.

I'll give you a top tip that I had drummed into me at school. Learn to spell "diarrhoea" correctly; it will stand you in good stead for the rest of your life.

Post by: Ferrari Spider on July 24, 2006, 06:50:41 pm: Johnny, Interesting that you think Mr Herbert will be at Donny! I would have thought he might be at the Turkish GP with Midland F1 team;)

Post by: Fax on July 25, 2006, 08:35:46 am: What! No Egg Fu Yoong this weekend?! Not enough Maylasian dosh being handed over to Jan to get these guys to the grid, me thinks Egg Fu spend too much at LM on gravel trips? Jesus what a mess! Jan ought to buy himself a customer Porsche RS Spyder and go racing in the States next year ;)

That makes the tickets a bit of a joke picturing a team that won't be taking part.

Will Drinking for Holland still be there?
Title: Re: who do you thinks going to win LMES at Donington
Post by: Paddy_NL on July 25, 2006, 11:23:34 am: I would think so Bob, otherwise I have a return ticket for Le Shuttle spare and £170 in camping reservations down the drain. We'll fly his flag anyway, and set off the smoke bombs at the start :)

Oh, and I believe I have to deliver some stickers, and stick one onto a spare wheel cover ;)

Post by: Fax on July 26, 2006, 07:41:46 pm: Well, yes of course Mark ;D Just thinking the DFH dudes might enjoy rooting for the RFH guys at Sebring in March.
Actually if RFH had a Porker right now they'd clean up in the LMES. To be honest, I'm not sure what the story is going to be for that bad-ass little car once it becomes available. Since it was commisioned by Porsche of North America I don't know if its going to be restricted to ALMS use only, or whether it will be allowed to be raced worldwide. I certainly hope it will be allowed outside North America but you never know with these sort of things. I haven't heard one way or the other.

Post by: DelBoy on July 26, 2006, 10:47:48 pm: Where are you guys looking at for the entry list??

The only one I have found still shows an Audi, Pescy and a Dome - obviously out of date.

Thanks Rick. That was the one I had been looking at, and it now seems to have been updated.

Still showing 1 Pescy - has Henri scraped a few euros together to enter 1 car??

Looks like there won't be any more entered - entries close today (or yesterday - depends how you interpret 'one month prior to the event).
