Are you Test Day'ing this year Simon?

Nothing official, but the #5 has been pretty much nailed on for a while now (with Ginetta support), and Alex Brundle is in the #6, so I think it's fairly safe to assume both cars for Le Mans.

[Aysedasi]

If so, that's tremendous news James

[GT6]

good news indeed

Agreed, but I think the signs are more than positive for Le Mans. What happens after Le Mans, that's a different matter.

[S griffin]

I think they might be lucky to get to Le Mans. After that it will be tougher

The team’s title sponsor in 2016, BAXI, has returned. The team will be officially named BAXI TRS Manor Racing from now on. The entire crew has arrived at Le Mans for the test day.
BAXI (八喜）is a large Chinese ice cream manufacturer which has run for 30 years. As I have known, they was the main fund for the team during its LMP2 era and is able to pay way more than CEFC.

[S griffin]

Good news for them indeed

[nobster]

Finally some good news for them

[S griffin]

Now they have something, let’s see what they can do

[Damian Baldi]

ohh great news ! I'll love to follow these cars.

[Adam43]

Ice cream eh? Cool.

[GT6]

Let us hope it lasts longer than the last ice cream sponsored LMP car, think the mansells lasted under 3 laps

That's really good news.

[S griffin]

I’m glad for them they will be able to race at Le Mans

[Bcarr6]

Two cars visible in the garage shown on DSC, and says they have completed a test since Spa.

Kinda think Ginetta might be backboning this one a little bit at least through Le Mans. As they should do really, be a massive embarrassment otherwise

[S griffin]

Well it’s a start, not sure if they did test since Spa. Who knows if Ginetta helped them? They certainly can save some face now

[GT6]

We all want Ginetta to make a good showing but i think they are behind the others in development so factory backing will be a great help, but will the ACO allow it

[S griffin]

Ginetta need a good showing, but they are looking behind. It depends if they get factory backing and what the ACO say

Last we heard was the engine was a bit down on power. I'm going to pay attention to the top speed closely.

Sexy rear end on that Cetilar Villorba Corse Dallara - even if it's incomplete!
