Fingers crossed, I'll be booking my trip to Petit in the next week or two

 

Wow! That's great news for Gil's team! I don't like Dixon but he is proving himself to be a hell of a good driver

Rich you - quit telling us crap like that

 

Hey, I missed Le Mans, Le Mans Classic and the Spa 24hr race this year. So I figured I deserved one decent race trip out of the year!

 

OH.... gee that's too bad - I missed them all too

I did goto Watkins Glen, Mid-Ohio and Lime Rock While those are nice historical places they don't have the glamour and mystique of many European tracks

 

If you saw windtunnel last weekend they said AGR isn't going to race ALMS in 09' and de Ferran is probably going to field 2 cars.

AGR is going to run USA's A1GP program.

AGR seems to have the ability to run with the best in the ALMS ;but Acura seems to be shining on Fernandez for some reason

 

AGR had some REALLY bad races and keeps switching drivers which Acura probably reads as bad signs for the team in general.

Would be AWESOME to have Dario back in road racing! I can even put up with his wife getting more press coverage than him

Can't wait for the LMP1 entries to challenge the Audi machines!

Thanks for the link Santi

 

Seems that Marshall still has hope that the Eco Radicals will show up this season. A french fry oil powered car constructed out of hemp fibers should be a shoe in for the green challenge at Petit Le Mans.

Also Biela racing for Corsa in LMP1???

 

I was talking with one of the UK teams going cover to Petit this afternoon, and they are really looking forward to the race and are attacking it as if there are five classes with diesel LMP1 and petrol LMP1.

I wonder whether the Peugeots will take the race to Audi this time. In all the LMES races Peugeot have had the right race pace over Audi, but at Sebring and Le Mans the Audi race experience made the difference.
