It may have also bee a total lack of experience on how much these V8s vibrate. You need to be totally aware of the resultant issues and prepare the car accordingly.
And? We had Pescarolo 01 LMP2 Judd cars in 2007 - more or less the same V8.
I agree that Judd engines cant compete with Toyota factory and customer (Rebellion) LMP1 engines, but what we have seen in Le Mans on both Pescarolo cars was not purely Judd's fault. The OAK LMP1 run a lot better ...
