Le Mans - the how you get there is not quite as important as being there.

I have now corrected this Petra. I copied this direct from the LMS pdf, so the error wasn't mine.

I thought that was alreadxy clear Werner, RfH won't be racing in any sportscar of their own this year. Jan will get a drive at a team probably (I'm wondering why he isn't listed yet) but RfH is taking a sabbatical.

This film should be played at high volume, so don't come complaining about it! And who the hell is Steve?

I was thinking the very same.

LMP2 looks interesting with the arrival of the Spyders and a coupe.



Le Mans is for the week......not just 24hrs!

Yes, he has a drive in Grandam, the only date clash is the Monza round though so maybe he is doing both?

Shame for Rollcentre that Stu Hall has gone to Creation, but good luck to him I think he is a talent in the making for endurance racing.

So much for Shorties retirement?  Apart from LM I think he only did the practice sessions las season.

But all in all a great looking entry, even though GT1 is a bit thin it should provide some great racing.

Can't wait for the season to start now....
Of course I buy green cars, my Aston is green, my MGB is green, my Disco Sport is green,  oh, that's not what you meant by green?

Not confirmed, but I guess they have bought the BK Motorsports Lola/Mazda which ran in ALMS last year - no rotaray engine, found something about this car at http://media.ford.com/mazda/article_display.cfm?article_id=25224

Chris, Steve, you're right.

I wasn't very awake when I wrote that I guess.

Let's get some extra black coffee...
