Penske suddenly have serious competition. :cool:
I wonder what the team will do with their pair of Lola's now?
Maybe sell them to a wealthy privateer gentleman of sorts. P2 is where it's at for next year.
Dyson Racing 2 Porsche RS Spyders
Penske Motorsports 2 Porsche RS Spyders
Andretti Green Racing 1 Courage LC75/Acura
Highcroft Racing 1 Courage LC75-Acura
Lowe's Fernandez Racing 1 Lola B05/40-Acura
Intersport Racing 1 Lola B05/40-AER
And possibly:
B-K Motorsports 1 Courage LC75-Mazda?
There haven't been any announcements from them and their website is "under construction". I guessed with the chassis as it's the latest Courage P2 chassis available. I'd like to see them with their rotary back in action.
Van Der Steur Racing 1 Radical SR9-AER
They only received their Radical right before Petit, so I imagine they'll be returning next season to put it to more use.
Miracle Motorsports 1 Courage LC75-AER?
Once again, this is a guess on the chassis. I haven't seen much news about them since Le Mans. They were concentrating on only the endurance races in 2006, though.
anychance of any of the four porches making it to the le mans 24 hours next june? just maybe they could upset the audis although probably not with all the restrictions emplaced on lmp2's, but maybe...!!
;) Chance of Porsche running LMP2's @ Le Mans...
Slim & None.
Le Mans is a high speed/high horsepower track, clearly favoring the LMP1 Audi's.
Porsche is still not satisified with the reliability of the Porsche LMP2 cars... 24 hours is a Long Time.
Glad to see Dyson running Porsches now. LMP2 and GT-2 will be the cars to watch.
:s mokin:
I think both Dyson and Penske will not be at Le Mans in 2007 as each year the Dyson team rufuse any invitation from the ACO !
the P2 will be great next year and hope that these Porsche Evo can compete angainst the Champion Audis for the "Overall" win
Won't this pretty much kill the LMP1 class in America? Many of the races only had the Dyson P1 cars racing against the all mighty Audis, now there will be no cars racing against the Audis.
This is IMSA 1993 all over again....

According to Scott Atherton, we should see the following cars in LMP1:
Audi 2 R10's
Autocon Motorsports 1 Lola EX257-AER
Creation Autosportif 1 Creation CA06/H01-Judd
Zytek Engineering 1 Zytek 06S-Zytek
Possible entries:
Dyson Racing's two former Lola B06/10-AER's
I am quite sure that we will see two Porsche RS Spyder at the 24h of Le Mans in 2007.Quote:
