1:35.4 is a very good lap

**Adam43** · 9 Jul 2022, 17:17 (Ref:4118767)

Great stuff. Well done. Another pole.

**Aysedasi** · 9 Jul 2022, 17:21 (Ref:4118769)

Huge congrats from me, the car really looks the bees knees. Great to see it on pole.

CTD · 9 Jul 2022, 18:04 (Ref:4118771)

Very well done!
Fingers crossed that the BoP monster does not show its ugly head

Expecting some pre-race "adjustments"?

Simmi · 9 Jul 2022, 18:56 (Ref:4118775)

Have we had any in-meeting BoP adjustments this year outside of Le Mans?

Bcarr6 · 9 Jul 2022, 20:23 (Ref:4118785)

Just have to say to Jim- that new livery looks spectacular!

Don't recall but maybe we didn't 'need' any

**joeb** · 10 Jul 2022, 00:16 (Ref:4118803)

I want to add to this by just saying that Dumas has been spectacular in this car. If we were looking at the list of drivers for both cars and ranking them on speed I would not have expected Dumas to be that fast. But he shows every race how he can be fast and consistent throughout a stint, and putting it on Pole is just another feather in his cap.

Can't wait for the race!

Yep, I'm looking forward to watching it - if I can avoid doing any more jobs round the house and garden for Mrs Ayse, that is......

Really glad you guys got the pole. Have to say the new livery is looking even more impressive when you see it on the race track

CTD · 10 Jul 2022, 13:00 (Ref:4118902)

Massive respect to you Jim for taking the penalty with decency when it came at the worst time imaginable!
Many other team principles would not have take the same tone as you.

**Adam43** · 11 Jul 2022, 01:50 (Ref:4119013)

Such a shame. Going well. Even with the penalty looking like it could challenge.

SnoodyMcFlude · 11 Jul 2022, 08:23 (Ref:4119036)

Real shame, that could have been a hell of a race for the win. Showed amazing pace though, hope that there's some budget to have a crack at Bahrain

gert · 11 Jul 2022, 09:10 (Ref:4119056)

Better luck at Fuji!

chernaudi · 11 Jul 2022, 13:18 (Ref:4119099)

Glickenhaus has confirmed no Fuji, and Bahrain is iffy. So Monza may be their last race this season.

tomcug · 11 Jul 2022, 16:31 (Ref:4119128)

Yea, I wouldn't expect to see them again this year. Still, despite the Monza failure after an excellent first part of the race, big kudos to James for challenging Toyotas. After all Glickenhaus is a boutique manufacturer without multi-million budget that Toyota has. Big respect for podium finish at Le Mans and hoping to see you next year.

Agree 100%. The fact that Jim has one of the best looking prototypes I've seen for a long time helps too.... Hope to see them back bigger and stronger.

broadrun96 · 12 Jul 2022, 14:22 (Ref:4119257)

And it seems like the ACO/FIA are aware of the "little guy" status and fan appreciation of the teams like Pescarolo, Rebellion, Glickenhaus and even Kolles to a bit is part of the series. They may have driven it out of F1 but they might have learned a bit lately

broadrun96 · 3 Oct 2022, 23:37 (Ref:4128604)

Well the SGR models have been released and wide variety of them, costs are a bit crazy though

**Adam43** · 4 Oct 2022, 01:21 (Ref:4128616)

They are nice. As you say, a bit much. I might invest in another T at some point.
Although I might collect a T from each 2023 team. I had 2/3rds of the Hypercar teams last year

Simmi · 4 Oct 2022, 08:07 (Ref:4128637)

Spark models also have their own version of the Glick on sale. I bought the 1:18 version from a vendor at Spa 24. Might be slightly cheaper, albeit shipping is still going to be painful.

**Aysedasi** · 4 Oct 2022, 10:49 (Ref:4128645)

Sorely tempted.... But I'll wait in the hope that they run at Le Mans and in the blue....

Coach Ep · 4 Oct 2022, 15:03 (Ref:4128666)

Time for a Hot Wheel as well!
