Nordic should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Porsche 908/
Played 'the other car' in the real closest finish at Le mans in 69 when it trailed home the winning GT40 whisker.
A version of the 908 was entered every year between 68 and 76 but never won, dispite being the car to beat just about everywhere else from the Targa to the 'ring

Its close cousin, the 936 took all the laurels at le Mans and the 908 is often overlooked.
