Looking at the last 2 races where the EE looked mean in black , I cant help wondering what it would look like if Repsol threw a few quid in their direction .

Repsol colors always looked great , except for that "Repsol Skyline" livery on a Kremer 911 GT2 .

I remember Carlos Sainz has a deal with Volkswagen , and Volkswagen has Audi Sport at Le Mans . . .

Carlos is spending 24h at the nurburgring in a new scirocco with one Hans J. Stuck...http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/66671

Is there another place to get Epsilon Euskadi press releases?

1,000 km of Spa qualifying

Plenty, Miguel Angel has been Spanish GT champion with Balba Camino and is still racing there with Miguel Amaral (team owner of Quifel ASM) Angel was also a top driver in that class and partnered Miguel Angel as well. I guess their LMS campaigns of 2006 and 2007 are widely known. Also this one is available:

Burgueno is top class .. I'd say close to Barbosa
and i'd like to see both iberic drivers in a EE1

Also, not sure if this has been mentioned anywhere else but for those who are into racing simulations, a fantastic representation of the Epsilon Euskadi has been released.

I have to say its stunningly accurate, which you would expect as it was made in collaboration with Epsilon themselves - even down to recording the sounds onboard and using the original Catia model.

[The Badger]

Any idea of a potential sponsor ?

[Tom908V12]

I feel completely gutted not to see the second EE knowing the driver line-up it would have had(Johansson/Gounon/Nakano)

[Tom87]

Looks like they know something everyone else doesn't? Would be great to see this car with some great drivers instead of the Lucchini...

I get the feeling we will see it, there is no way drivers like those would have signed on the off-chance of being in the race. It doesn't hinder their cause that one of the them is French.

I would be very suprised if there were not two epsilons in the paddock in 24 hours time

[The Badger]

Yeah ..... I would have loved to have seen it too . Cant wait to see it though , i reckon its the nicest Copue so far .

I'm intrigued (unsurprisingly). 2 in the paddock and both entered for the race (or with one sitting on the truck)?



(I've heard rumours but nothing remotely close to being concrete)

[mattcat]

Why does the Planet LeMans article say that we will be seeing both EE's in the 24 hours? Did someone withdraw that I don't know about?

Clearly there is a further anticipated withdrawal and a loophole which will permit the second EE1 to take that place even though the 23rd May deadline has passed.

What, we thinking Tokai as the candidate for withdrawing?
And what loophole would that be?!


L.P.

[NightStalk3r]

Someone i know on MSN seems to think that the Epsilon Euskadi looks like a Ferrari Enzo, to say i laughed would be an understatement.

[Dani Filth]

I would've laughed too
thank god though he didn't say a porkie

A small village called Codford between Salisbury and Warminster.
