That's one thing you can say about Ginetta. They definitely aren't fiddling their diesel emissions.

I read that this morning. Doesn't look good for them at all. Unless the ACO can convince them that it'll improve their image (like cheap F-E is used for) I don't expect any Peugeot lmp1. DSC has a (different) story on their entry as well.

This should really be in ACO if we're going to continue with this non-conversation.

How does something that is not going to exist, belong in any category?
