    Hey Mr Dee Jay....
    WOW! Thats a mega hit... that tub must be very hurt! I presume the driver is ok?

    That car had one of their drivers punted (Halls) because of a driving infringement... so the car was 2 up for the event... not now it seems

    The #17 Pescarolo Peugeot also went back to its maker after Mr Treluyer lost control and completely destroyed it :(:(

    Great stuff for Brabham and the Peugeot team, the 908's were too good this year!

    They keep calling him Australian. I notice he appears to use the English flag as his base. Is this Asuatralia claiming someone again because they are wninning??? :D

    Fuel pick-up problems mainly.
    When they turned on the reserve pick-ups they didn't. Pick-up that is.

    Happened to all of them and then there was various following problems as they tried to play catch up.

    One of the Porsches had a very nice dragon themed art car paint job. Even better than the Flying Lizards one from last year.
    They certainly have a performance advantage this season.

    Haha Thats cause the Japanese lambo club boys are a joke.
    They were scavenging bits from french road cars trying to get it going.
    Think they only turned ten laps all up, including all sessions.

    IMHO they would've been better getting a lambo team like Reiter to run a GT1 Murcie or GT2 Gallado for them to turn up and drive.

    Reiter has already developed a GT1 Murcielago to the current rules, and has also developed both GT2 and GT3 versions of the smaller Gallardo.

    Would've had a lot more fun and better outcome that way.

    No, the car hardly turned a lap all week. Neither the drivers or car qualified!
    ACO gave them a dispensation to race anyway but the car wouldn't run.
    Hopeless,
    Same as last year!
