Cars look great but I have to agree with you, I'll believe it when I see it.
Seems they have no firm plans over where they will run. Did their Aston even compete last year? Theoretically (if they are legit) it's just the type of entry the ELMS needs. |

European Le Mans Series and Blancpain Endurance Series openers the same weekend. Wonder how many GT3 cars will be in the ELMS event!

IIRC wasn't it another re-named reincarnation of the Atlas eFX Saleen operation from a couple of years back, but with added Pammy?
http://www.the-advantage.org/2012/03...n-now-add.html The original plan last year was an Aston in ELMS and GT Open, which never materialised- I don't think we ever saw any more than a rendering of the livery. At least we seem to have an image of an actual Audi this time... |

I did hear something of them racing a GT3 Ferrari last year, but could be wrong. Lets hope things do happen this time as it would mean a bigger grid for ELMS |

The automatic invitations that were handed out for this year's race suggest that... yes. Thiriet/TDS and OAK in P2, JMW and JMB in GTE-Pro and AF Corse and IMSA in GTE-Am.

That rings a bell with me as well- IIRC after the Aston deal didn't materialize, there was some rumour or even announcement of a GT3 Ferrari for either Blancpain or GT Open, but needless to say that didn't happen either....

Did Pamela herself come up with that name? Momo Megatron DF1 would sound a bit over the top even for Jeremy Clarkson's team.

With Matt Griffin confirmed at RAM we can probably scratch MTECH of the rumoured list...

Hopefully not, DSC reported as recently as Jan, 20th that MTECH would field a brand new 458 GT2 in GT Open and non clashing ELMS races (as far as I can see only 1, Portimao vs. Imola).

Which spec of RSR will they race with? 2011 or the wider 2012??
They haven't got the 2012 spec last year, but it will be too tough to compete against the 458 with the old spec |

ACO people that were at Daytona told Dailysportscar that 25-27 entries are expected for the ELMS this year. And they should know, since they collect the entry forms now.

I would think that Murphy having not entered the WEC , can only mean that they are ELMS bound ..... great that they retained Brandon Hartley ..... and
