And here is the Dyson Lola making its track debut.

Think I prefer it in black but still good to see it out on track. Best of luck to the team.

Here's Dagys's full gallery for Saturday on-track testing.

http://photos.speedtv.com/gallery/LE...ng_at_Sebring/

I have to say, I liked the green livery on last year's car more than the blue one on this year's car. But at least it looks decent. I am really liking Level 5's HPDs, the glossy black paint fits them superbly (and even the fin doesn't look bad either)

It struck me when looking at those pictures that this is the first non-Michelin attempt at the wide fronts.

Has G-Oil left the team? Hopefully not since this will be the second year straight that Dyson has lost their primary sponsor. I know G-Oil is getting more entrenched in NASCAR, and the ALMS isn't exactly the greatest place for sponsor ROI.

That Dyson car looks very clean. Lets hope the Mazda power can compete with the rest. Any news of developments? Is it an LMP2 engine with big restrictors or an LMP1 spec engine?

Knighty has heard that AER did a lot of development during the winter. See http://tentenths.com/forum/showthrea...35#post3021535

Looks like they've lost the G-Oil sponsorship, would be alot more green on the car otherwise.

There are three additional entries from the WEC; the two Gulf Racing Middle East cars #28 and #29; also the "Lotus" car #31.

Those are B12/80s though (LMP2 spec). The Dyson cars are B12/60 (LMP1).

It wasn't a stunt as far as I'm aware, it was testing on the South variant of the track while Indycar was testing on the North variant and the WEC and ALMS teams were unloading in the paddock. And I think I read somewhere that the team are providing some logistical support to AF Corse (or some other WEC team).

That does Dyson looks really sweet! The shot of it in the garage from front on with the doors open is fabulous. Gorgeous car.

Does this mean there will be an additional 30 minutes run time on the "newly developed" AER until the parts start melting?

Dyson is going to Le Mans with two cars. They would not do that without assurances from AER about the reliability of the revised engine

Great. This has been hanging for a while.

In other LMP2 news, Level 5 team owner Scott Tucker confirmed Wednesday that he’s sold one of his two Lola B11/80 Honda coupes to Black Swan Racing, which announced its entry into the prototype ranks late last year.
