The straight before Indianapolis was the fastest part of the track in the middle of the 90' but, don't ask me why, I don't know, if I can remember what said Jan Lammers in an ACO's annual, the fastest part of the track was in the first part of the Hunaudières again...

The Dome (the fastest one), reached 340 km/h here those last years. Before Indianapolis, it could be 10 or 20 km/h slower... :confused:

I don't think they could go faster than 330 km/h now, and the purpose is to win some time in the curves or slower part of the track ; the price to pay for a real top speed is too high regarding the rest of the track.

But some cars are still too slow for their category (Courage Evo, WRs) when some others are really fast and hard to take over (575)...

This one was taken during the last 1000 kms of Le Mans (Jérôme Mugnier's site).
