[LM24 Race] 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans Entry List Thread

[Victor_RO]

And for live timing, if you don't have enough money for internets at the track, there's always the brainbox in the RLM commentary booth aka Trussers.

If people want to watch the race at home there's nothing wrong with that. Every fan of endurance racing can't attend Le Mans - it's not possible.

Everyone that's been knows that it tends to awaken something in you. I'd recommend it to anyone. At the end of the day they'll make their own decision to go if they have the desire, ability and the means.

Agreed with the first sentence.

[Aysedasi]

Absolutely true. I consider myself exceptionally lucky that I'm able to go and have been for the last 28 years but obviously not everyone is as fortunate as me.

[nobster]

indeed this year will be my 24th 24 hours race in a row, luckily I have never had a setback for not going but lots of things can happen, costs, health and distance are of great importance in going every year.

This thread is killing me. I've had to give up on going for the first time this year to (irony incoming) fix my car. With Ramadan's prospective dates from 2015 onwards, I won't be able to make it until 2018/19.

Have fun on my behalf guys

Same here, and I just can't imagine not going

That's forever away. Pitch a small tent at home and listen to RLM for the weekend?

Couple of further entry list changes.

Leo Roussel replaces Romain Brandela at Pegasus - http://sportscar365.com/lemans/leman...morgan-nissan/

We'll see a fourth Ligier on the grid, with the #26 G-Drive entry being updated to the new car.

Along with the #35 car it will effectively be a two-car team known as 'G-Drive Racing by OAK Racing'. These are going to be VERY pretty in the flesh I think.

While their P1 effort might have sort of embarrasingly rumbled down like Lotuses, Oak is doing pretty good business with those coupes already. Congrats

Anyway these sort of changes are exactly the reason I fail to understand why ACO calls it "final entry list". It's not final until scrutineering has been done (I say done instead of starts as it's not final even then, as things like Epsilon Euskaldi 08 etc proved)

I think he replaces Raffin.

Yeah he does Ayse. Getting my DKR boys from last year mixed up

[Aysedasi]

And there you were getting my hopes up too!

Onroak Automotive's FB page has some images of the TDS, OAK Asia and main OAK Racing Ligier LMP2s testing at Magny-Cours.

TDS was in full color. OAK Asia was in bare carbon, and OAK Racing was in bare carbon with what appeared to be foil tape on various bits at the front of the car.

Here are some of the photos that chernaudi graciously introduced us to above...
