The first Pescarolo C60 chassis was first tested in November... 2000. They received the second one for Le Mans and have been running those 2 ever since (numbers 03 and 04?). Might be time for a move forward. Henri has stated he wants to keep on running an hybrid, but if he has to buy chassis to replace his museum and crashed (how crashed is it?) ones, they should be new spec cars. Courage might have a hard time supplying all the bits, but the bodywork, gearbox and all systems form the proven Le Mans pole-sitting C60 can used and would only need small adaptations...
The purchase of a tired car for what surely is the best part of a new car's price by the ACO and probably the local government is a nice tap in the back after a nice year...
