My Thoughts:

Although tradition says "invites & alternates," why not do what American racing does?

Let all 76 entrants come to Le Mans for a week in May instead of the few PQ days...

Set a given number, or an approximate number, of "accepted slots" for GT and GTS numbers that will be part of the 50 who will ultimately race...

Make EVERYBODY qualify for the "List of 50" to come back in June..based on set qualifying sessions the last 2-3 days of the week....

That way, not politics comes into it...the fastest cars and the teams that "deserve" to be running in June actually get there...

I can hardly wait for the responses to this one....

One more Question:

76 teams sent entries...

50 chosen and 6 others as alternates...

Who were the other 20?

Was Knighthawk one of them?

What about American Spirit???

Morgan had to have been one....

How about others???

R&M?

Send your ideas or your information on this, too...
