It is really impressive how hard this car is being pushed already. Engine sounds smooth and strong, traction sounds good, looks stable under heavy braking... All good stuff.
Can't wait to hear it on its own, storming through the trees away from Mulsanne towards Indianapolis.

Do you honestly think that the ACO would not give a place to one more Hypercar? They can easily remove an unimportant Oreca, Ferrari or Porsche GTE Am and give a place to one more Hypercar.

SMP BR1 and rebellion R13 had >700hp, were much lighter than LMH and in lemans low drag configuration were constantly >340km/h since unlike toyota they hadn't to lift and coast to save fuel. Considering LMH are wider, less powerful and would get a worse acceleration exiting from tetre rouge because of extra weight and worse downforce, I don't think will be marked better top speed than 2019-2020 private lmp1.
BTW didn't Jim always say that the 007 whole package was about 2mln$ for interested team? And don't they need to build a third car anyway to use it as spare chassis?

There has been a huge price increase in materials. Brexit? Covid? Consumer demand? Our price for a car and full service Le Mans entry is now 5mm euro.
We believe we can get a third entry. We have a lot of fans and about 5mm social media impressions a week. More importantly the car looks and sounds good.

I'm sure they would love another hypercar. We all would. But applications have closed so any extra car would go to the back of the reserve queue. The entry list will be published on Tuesday.

Hey Jim, regarding testing at Monza, did you guys think about removing the turn 1 right turn chicane and instead go flat out around the long right turn? Bozzy showed Audi doing that at Monza back in 2013

Not many teams skip the first chicane. Depends how much straightline speed you want to learn about

For Le Mans, quite a bit, I'd say, which is no doubt why Audi did it.....

As she's sort of a Super GT my guess is that she'd kiss 6:00 on the NS.

Get 5 million social impressions last week sell 10 cars.
No question that our racing helps our little company to sell cars.
Racing is our passion and building road legal race cars for the road is what we do. Selling road cars enables us to race and racing enables us to sell road cars..
