Maybe but I think it's not the real reason because if the seat is on the left side, the next driver can wait on the left side of the car before the car arrives.Quote:

This new Peugeot looks great, and sounds good. Just loud enough you know it is there. This diesel revolution is great for racing. I do think that for a time racing was not contributing as much to the march of technology forward of autos for the street, but the work Audi and now Peugeot are doing is making Diesels cool for more than people like me who drive rigs for a living.
In Europe diesels are big, but over here, it is stuff like the Audi's that are changing perceptions.
Great race car, and I hope Peugeot makes the Audi boys unhappy, change is good, and JV driving a Peugeot is my kind of change....
yeah the R10 is unbelievable on how quiet it is, they had the in-car camera and they did a hotlap with no announcers, and you could barely hear the engine
Mark and Harvick, will you attend the Sebring race and tests in march ??? :confused:
If yes, I hope you'll bring and post many pics of the 908 on that thread !! ;)
no I won't be at Sebring, but I would like to go
Both Stephane Sarrazin and Marc Gene will drive the 908 for the very first time this week (if everything goes fine with the car during this second testing session).
The circuit is HTTT I suppose.
WOOOOOOO!!!!!
Can't wait for Silverstone 1000km!!!
That car is awesome, although it appears a bit 'twitchy' coming out of fast corners and mild understeer on the low speed corners. Engine sounds better than the Audi. There's a distinctive deeper exhaust grunt and whistle-ing from the turbocharger.
Damn you Le Mans, I now have divided loyalties! My dad has been a loyal Audi driver for nearly 30yrs - he has driven various A4s over the last 10 years - and I have loyally supported Audi in Touring cars, but I'm a loyal Peugeot hot-hatch fan for nearly 8yrs!
Happy to find another Peugeot fan on this forum... ;)
Yes.
It's great to see all the enthusiasm for the 908 and around the Peugeot come back ! :up:
You have another 2'30 video of the 908 testing on http://www.peugeot-sport.com ;)
