Yeah but even as "standard" LMP2 cars, long after the LMP675 rules were abandoned, they continued to be embarrassing in reliability. Only in 2008 you could say they started to not look like total shambles (in Europe, ALMS got the vibe few years earlier already), partly thanks to increasing prototype boom and coming of new models

2007 at Le Mans was total disaster in particular, the first finisher was 18th overall and behind GT1 + GT2 winners. And only one other LMP2 actually finished the race lol

But regarding the Lola-AERs, yeah they were notorious at being explody, even as late as 2010/2011 when Autocon still was running old chassis
