Courage LC75

Quote:
From http://www.mulsannescorner.com/news.html
Courage has released this artist's rendering of the Courage LC75 LMP2 (LC70 is the LMP1). I spoke with Courage's Technical Director Gérard Gilles at Petit Le Mans about this project. Initially it was intended to only update the existing C65, but as development progressed large gains were readily being found. It was decided to design a completely new car though some mechanical components will apparently carry over, Gérard suggesting the transmission, brakes, uprights, and possibly the wishbones. Paolo Cantone is the Chief Designer. Wind tunnel testing is being carried out at the former-Prost wind tunnel located at Magny Cours. The model is 40%. Intriguingly it had been intended to release images of the wind tunnel model but that has been set aside simply to avoid giving away too much before hand. Courage's Claude Surmont indicated that the LC75, "Will hit the track between Christmas and New year." The car's official launch is next month.
