Has Liz Halliday signed for the rest of the LMS season?

Don't see any indication of it in that link. Certainly she seems to be on the outs with Team Modena though, so it would seem that she is presently without an LMS berth. I guess we don't even know whether Petrov will continue on in the Del Bello car after LM, and Gounon was only moonlighting in it at Valencia, so its lineup will remain a mystery for now.

Where is the Skoda Charouz Racing System's website?

I saw a race report that credited SCR.

Skoda Charouz Racing System's have not yet official website. You can visit site www.bpa.cz - Charouz marketing company (there are links to his drivers), or http://www.jan-charouz.cz or http://www.tomas-enge.com/ where you can find related information.

Boy, Modena really profitted by punting Liz for a hotter shoe.

Judging by her comments on Motors TV she didn't particularly enjoy driving a GT1 car.

JAG · 22 Jun 2007, 19:21 (Ref:1944513)

There's a small hint on DSC that Audi may be in the LMS from Silverstone.

Hopefully Lister will be there as well.

Looking ahead to Interlagos, I really hope some of the ALMS regulars turn up.

I am not sure where but From comments at SLC and LeMans I got the impression that she would/might possibly be back in the ALMS later in the season and not just as a pit reporter. I may have had some funny shrooms sauteed with my Ribeye but that is the gist of what I.......

She seemed to like the Lister enough ..... I reckon its more to do with the fact that she probably is not as quick as Garcia , and to be quick you need 2 quick drivers .

bil588 · 25 Jun 2007, 07:03 (Ref:1946025)

I've been looking more forward to Spa than Le Mans (new lister, markland Z06, more teams testing, etc).

Anybody know any more about the proposed Melchester Radicals?, it was reported earlier in the year that they could run up to four cars, in LMP1 and LMP2, including a diesel

Hammerdown · 25 Jun 2007, 12:46 (Ref:1946282)

I read somewhere that their plans had fallen through as the sponsorship wasn't forthcoming. I also thought that it was bioethanol they were planning on using, rather than diesel.

The Badger · 26 Jun 2007, 22:32 (Ref:1947676)

I see from Listers web site that they have chosen to run with the Judd GV5.5S2 and 2006 bodywork ..... and that Peter Ellray has been doing some work for them too .

Good news from the Lister camp then .

The Badger · 27 Jun 2007, 16:07 (Ref:1948232)

Haven't spotted the on the entry or pitbox list for the Ring, am I missing something?

The Badger · 27 Jun 2007, 19:06 (Ref:1948383)

Dont know ..... i was just quoteing from their web site . Hope their there though , any word on who we can expect doing the peddleing ?

JAG · 27 Jun 2007, 19:07 (Ref:1948385)

I thought Silverstone was the first race for Lister and Audi?

Lusitano · 27 Jun 2007, 19:11 (Ref:1948392)

I think the GT/Sportscar bug seriously bit one of my friends, from Portugal, at Le Mans, and now he wants to go to Silverstone.
Any recommendations, in terms of viewing areas, and things of the sort?

JAG · 27 Jun 2007, 19:59 (Ref:1948464)

Just get on the start/finish straight for the start and walk around the circuit, plenty of nice viewing spots.

Lister say Jens Moller (who is a partner in the program) and 2nd driver will not be a pay driver. Project is said to be a bit "on hold" at the moment until said driver is financed & " 4 corners & wiring loom" completed.

Most of this is according to Autosport print edition today.

I was delighted to see Lister buying a pescarolo , a bit confused when it was decided that they wouldnt buy the full package , gotta be cheaper than trying to develope it yourself . And now the rumour is that they might not take to the track this year , at all !!! Why not ?

Come on Laurence , time to make your mind up mate . Its not good at all for Lister's image . Im seriously dissapointed at this last peice of news !!!

Well I also heard something about bio-ethanol, but when I posted I was reading the article from an Autosport mag where it mentioned diesel, unless I've finally gone completely mad

Anyone else reckon it's time to drop Nurburgring from the series, it's an embarrasment.

Looking back, even in the rlate 80's they were only attracting 15k-25k at the height of Group C. Once the Nordschleife was dropped support dissappeared.

Monza was the worst of the worst, but at least they had a joint weekend with Renault World Series (probably due to a limited number of 'noisy' days as much as promotional reasons), but the result was a decent attendance compared to previous years.

Valencia was a mistake, time to go elsewere, while Spa, Silverstone and Interlagos SHOULD be decent to very good attendances.
