All about aero. I've been following the development of this and love the concept. The rear end is amazing

Not been on here in an age... saw this an was compelled to login as ive had a lot to do with this car recently!

What i can say is there over 30 seconds off the pace in LeMans this weekends testing... which was confirmed by a very good friend of mine whos pit crew for the Porsches i was building earlier in the year lol

So, the bloke who make the trike the other year, the delta wing... has cocked up?

Sportscar racing does look like the place to be this year

GP2 is where its at, WEC is great dont get me wrong tho.

Anyway, winning class in LMP1 & 2 is just a by product. Its all about the technology & future proofing themselves as a auto manufacturer.

There was also a slight pit box error that wasnt mentioned on any WEC news aswell lol lol

they got a grid penalty for not being within 120% of the pole winners lap time....they were seriously slow compared to the others

yup/\

re BroadGhost's point about it looking quick... ok, it was quick relative to the gt class cars it was passing, but it was a 3:30 lap... Audi were doing laps as quick as 3:17 and didn't win.
