Well in this local ( where the team is based) newspaper Jacques Lecomte was saying that the other factories had refused Larbre to enter a C7R so he was thinking about a break. http://www.lanouvellerepublique.fr/V...urance-1740854

E-I speculating about Rene Rast racing at LM. He'd be a great addition to the grid.

-AAI Rstrada: Also from AsLMS, with a 2012 widebody RSR in hand and local RUF dealership

-SMP: Their P2 entries should come true, but how about their planned GTE Ferrari effort?
I forgot the SMP GTE entry. Can you provide some links to back up the rest though? Thanks.

Maybe we can add a Kessel entry to the list after today's ELMS news.

Driving talent and proving you've got an exciting team in the works could be key in getting selected. So basically teams who have got their s**t together rather than speculative entries.

Getting excited now.
Kessel is definitely an option, but they have had the opportunity to race at Le Mans in previous years and never took it. It seems dubious to me, but I hope I'm proven wrong!

I wonder why LMP2 was dubbed the most likely option? The staff at E-I know quite a few things I don't, but I'd expect GTE-Pro for such a seasoned GT racer.

-Proton's plan was mentioned shortly at the end
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/111700
And surely they've an auto entry in hand
http://www.crash.net/sportscars/news...-revealed.html

-Taisan originally expects a 997 GT3 RSR plus a 458 GTE
http://www.endurance-info.com/fr/act...durance-20036/
But down to a Ferrari due to the cost of a 991 RSR (its believed that 997 models will lost factory support from 2014)
http://www.endurance-info.com/fr/le-...458-en-gte-am/

-AAI Rstrada's 2012 RSR is still in nice shape, in the first artical they mentioned that they want to enter 2014 LM24. AAI's also the biggest RUF dealer in Taiwan.

I'd figure Audi might not want him in another GT car, certainly not a pro works team.

Is he a Audi works driver then? I thought he was just a pro with no ties to a manufacturer.

Would hate to see larbre do anything else than run a corvette. To me they've really become THE customer corvette team after luc alphand left.

Why not?
Notably they already have a deal because I was told they would be both owners of the "circuit du Val de Vienne" http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_du_Val_de_Vienne

Well...any news about the rest of the entry list? It's just a question (might be pointless).

Please refer to post #242.

Additionally, I'm maintaining a speculative entry list here... https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...rive_web#gid=0

Otherwise, just be patient! :P

Despite their confirmation - why am I not surprised. I don't see the point any more in giving auto entries to U.S. teams.

Just a waste of a process and press releases.

At least they didn't do what ESM did last year and actually file their entry before backing out.

I agree. Dyson, ESM and now Pickett - the list is growing, not what the ACO need.

It appears that it really came down to MMPR getting Michelins. They weren't going to get them, so why even try...

So what, go to the test day and drive. Make your decision then. Can't be that hard to figure out. They could even borrow a chassis and get some tips from oreca on set up for le mans.

If they couldn't get tyres that's one thing. I don't buy the 'no data' argument as Oreca have everything they need and more.
