It is down to the regs. Minimal overhangs, wing within car 'plan', scalloped side/floor edges and double roll hoops all contribute to making the cars look wrong. Very few P-cars are good looking. As for the GTs, I like most of them--except the Panoz and the Spyker. (I do like the sound of the Panoz though!)

now there's a rule i'd like to see- cars cannot compete if they're ugly- judged by a few parisians and maybe a couple of turin(ese?). because then le mans would be even more beuatiful, and not so audi-dull!

I don't use the img tags because I don't want to hurt anyone's eyes.

Ok, yep, that one did it! Instead of asking 'what,' I only want to know 'why?'

I guess I was a little hard on 'em. Bless them for coming up with a completely new car/design, even though it looks like the offspring of a Pescarolo and a rodent.
