And yet parts still fail because not all drivers are as fast and smooth as others. So no spec does not change the endurance aspect. Possibly you don't feel it's YOUR kind of endurance racing and that's fine and valid reason. But to say it's not endurance racing, well that's just not accurate or proper use of the language to form a sentence.

I don't really know what Onroak wants, but Oreca seems to want one-make endurance racing, not even two. The only reason they seem to be fine in leaving LMP3 to others is because they still get to supply engines and service all of those cars too. So in certain way, that too is intended as one-make endurance racing, just less transparent.

If we’re going down this route please start a specific thread on it or add to a more relevant one.

Thanks. It’ll be good practice for the approach to the Le Mans race thread...

It's called business, isn't it? You run your business to make good profit, not for philanthropic reasons...

But back to Kolles....

not that makes any difference racewise, but never liked the gray/yellow paintscheme actually. The lotus inspired black/yellow-golden of 2014 CLM was much better

Paint flames on it and then we won't notice it's on fire for a couple laps?

But as with everyone entered, good luck, be safe and race well, hopefully the Sunday sun rises and you're on the track right side up.

When we start betting how many it will make it this year? I am going for 94 laps this time. Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

Wonder if the Alpine announcement means Kolles will wait a year if at all to transition to LMH. Just run P1 another year.

Could be, I thought something similar in another thread. Perhaps having that first grandfathered car commit will lead to others.

"If we have anything close to the pace we had at Spa, I’ve no doubt that a podium is possible, if she finishes. And I don't know if she will."

Love this comment both overly optimistic and pessimistic simultaneously

I can't believe it will have more starts than Porsche in the WEC, over 2 more years than they really but still. And yet still no classified finish at LM. Here's to going out with something special and less fire.

Are they using the same chassis as now? The front end looks very similar with the high "nose section". Looks good though, im curious to see the other designs.

if they will still keep on using the same updated adess lmp2 derivated carbon tub, it's unlikely "their" hypercar could have that roof shape and proportions since the car shown in that rendering has a much longer wheelbase than a lmp1. It's a thing impossible to achieve without a new tub...

Bruno Spengler has not been the best choice made by By Kolles. He damaged the car during the night practice and during the race.
His best lap has been 3:32.654. With the same car, Tom and Oliver best laps were 3:27.680 and 3:29.115
