I hear it will be coming to the States for the Petit LeMans. I'll be looking forward to seeing it there.

Impressive looking racer!
It would look so much better without the fin.

Nice work. I'm not a fan of these new fins, they are not suited to LMP cars, IMO Originally Posted by ioan

the Shark fins should not be allowed on these cars, and the pic just proves it!!!!!!
it a great looking LMP and hope it gives the fight to Peugeot and AMRBrian France is a violation of Section 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing)
