Hi
We are excited and serious. We’ll be racing our 003C next weekend at COTA 24 of Texas. If any of you are there please say Hello. Same for 2019 VLN/N24. More info about what we’re up to soon. Best Jim |

You're assuming that the new regs will allow them to do so. Tub rules may make adapting existing cars impossible. We won't know until they're released, obviously, but given the route they seem to be going I'd call it "optimistic" to assume that adapting a current chassis might be possible. |

Do you have any plans to expand the Boots program to include the Dakar? Seems that world domination is next on the list

My thoughts as well. If they were broke, there'd be no entry from them at all. But they are here, pay for their entry, drivers, engine, design their own car etc. None of that says to me that they are struggling for cash. That's not to say they're well off either.

But keep going they do, for which they get polite applause from me.

Hey, Intersport got no protection and they were from my home state. And got better results. And produced my absolute all-time favorite car/livery combination. If they weren't off-limits, no way am I letting a team like ByKolles off the hook! |

I am British so we will always support the underdog that turns up every race and tries, rather than the big budget teams that think that because they spend the most they have a right to win

Whatever, I’m totally up for them pulling off a good result. They’ve stuck with it for years. Fair play to them. |

I have just seen this on Twitter from Mr Hindhaugh
"'Hearing - from a number of sources - that there's been a seismic shift in LMP1 2020 regs discussed at Wednesday meeting - considering de-restricting GTE-Pro cars to run for overall wins - not met with unanimous support from current GTE OEMs - may force return to 'Prototype' style car time short for inclusion in Dec FiA WMSC'' Very interesting.... |

Until a certain Mr. Goodwin says something about it I will consider that speculation...

Sounds to me like the 2020 'hypercar' regs are in complete disarray, otherwise why would this (seemingly desperate) new proposal have even been made?

I think rather than believing that tweet it's better to be a little more nuanced and remember the bitterness of the person posting it...
