Quirky cars and passionate teams is one of the joys of Lemans, just think of Mazda's win and the joy of seeing teams like Martin Short's and Ray Mallock's when they do well.
When you have been to 20 plus lemans you appreciate just how much the little teams bring to this great race.

You obviously missed the
in my post......nevermind.
I wish WR success BUT when you are trying to protray a world class event (not some sunday club race) teams like them do let it all down just a bit....but balanced against the other side (your points) it does make for an interesting selection dilema for the ACO.
22 Gt1s is interesting - was expecting 8 to 9 at most.....
