[G.Irish]

Some points of interest:
-3 Mugen V8 powered cars in LMP1
-No Porsche Spyder in LMP2. I imagine this is because they don't have the bugs worked out yet.
-No Mazda LMP2 car, probably because they're slow and overheating right now
-Double the number of Aston Martin DBR9's this year. Looks like Prodrive is doing a fairly good job of selling the car to customer race teams.

24 Heures Du Mans party anyone?

24 Heures Du Mans party anyone?

*yawn*

I'll read the results on crash.net

[Evan]

a lot more exciting than an F1 race :roll:

observations:

-the lack of the Porsche really surprises me. The reliability hasnt looked that bad.
-lots of variety in GT1 and GT2. Much different than 2 or 3 years ago. A few factory teams in GT1 too. Good stuff.
-Where are the Dyson boys? In raw speed they are faster than the Audis
-Lister Storm LMP1 ?!!! reminds me of that Lotus Exige based LMP1 car (that not surprisingly never competed)

[G.Irish]

Yeah I mean the Porsches have had some retirements this season but why not run Le Mans anyway, they'd probably gain some valuable data and they are clearly the fastest LMP2 cars out there.

[.RJ]

Porsche would rather not run than not finish or have a shot at winning. They have a pretty focused single goal in whatever they do.
