Good on them and I hope they (particularly Kruse and Stuart Hall) have everything come good on Saturday.
I think you've said it better than me - I don't mean there isn't effort in F1, likewise with the passion, but at Le Mans it is so much more apparent, particularly given the budgetary restraints of the privateers.
