    Don't mix up the reliability of Italian road cars with the extreme reliability of the Ferrari racers of the 1960s. There is no way a manufacturer can win at Le Mans for six years running with poor reliability.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    well cant audi enter the R9 to compete with the ferraries and the porshes, that would be two sectors that theyd win, he he

    but still i dont think audi will have any problem even with the alterations to the car,

    even so i always watch TVR to see if they have a chance of getting onto the podium, hopefuly this year they'l be closer
    TVR, Heres to Peter wheeler and his last creationg of the Scamander.

    Coventry seriously sucks....

    Sadly the only TVR car going to Le Mans this year is the Racesport Peninsula TVR which is by no means the quickest T400R out there. At the Spa race earlier this season the Team LNT TVRs were the stars of the show taking a 1-2 finish in the GT2 class. The Peninsula car was massively off the pace of the LNTs but sadly it is them and not the LNT team that will be flying the flag for the Blackpool marque.

    I cant see Audi winning this year, the last 2 races that they entered they got beaten pretty good. I think that either the
    7 Creation Zytek Judd or the 16 Pescarolo Sport Judd will win "LM" P1.
    39 Chamberlin-Synergy Motorsport Lola AER will win "LM" P2.
    59 Aston Martin will win GT1.
    92 Cirtek Motorsport Ferrari 360 GTC will win GT2.

    Ill b there so if im wrong then i will be there to see it. lol
