Sms from Dutch mates

I hope that you'll have a coverage by ACO, but I'm not sure... just check on their site on sunday... I've never been home when a there's something at Le Mans, that's why I never experimented the coverage...

Just kidding, you're right.

thanks a ton for the pics fab, i cant believe that sites like lmsr and dsc dont have a single mention of today's scrutineering! something about the larbre 550's paint scheme makes the car look different to me...

The Racer's Porsche is completely white...

also, im not any more worried about sponsorship than i am any other year as many teams pick up sponsors between the test days and the race... plus there seem to be a lot of brand new cars as well as just delivered cars this year. take the racers group porsche for example, they obviously just picked that car up (probably like they did two years ago) or took off all the decals because that car will definitely look different come race week

I think you are right, besides this sponsors are paying for the race in June and not for PQ.

The Choroq Porsche is nice too... Bernard doesn't like it so much...

neiltbag · 23 Apr 2004, 18:41 (Ref:949340)

There's a ton of photos on the official Le Mans site (www.lemans.org) - including the Pagani.

Thanks for your quick response!

This blue Pagani reminds me of their Bitter . I think the family Hezemans had still some blue pain in the garage.

Choroq Porsche looks great.

kdr · 23 Apr 2004, 18:43 (Ref:949344)

I do believe that I've just become one of her biggest fans!!!!!

jhansen · 23 Apr 2004, 18:49 (Ref:949354)

I think the Choroq Porsche looks awesome. Isn't there a Team Goh tie in there some how? Seems I remember reading that on here, or somewhere else. If anyone knows that for sure please share.

As for Dunlop yellow, or neon yellow, or whatever...give me a break, colors have never been my strong suit.

Amanda Stretton to return in 2005

The aim of the “Women for Le Mans” project is to enter an all-women’s team in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. However, Amanda Stretton will have to wait for her dream to come true. The TVR that she drove at the Le Mans 1000 Km has finally gained entry for the preliminary testing for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, but she has reluctantly elected to throw in the towel for this year. “When the car was a reserve, my sponsors hesitated to get involved. And my co-driver, who is Spanish, has been badly affected by the events in Madrid. In addition, I’ve not yet found the third female co-driver. The catastrophe has not allowed me to fully concentrate on the race this year so I want to put all my efforts into 2005. That will allow me 16 months to find proper sponsorship and drivers.”

So no Amanda in 2004.

That's not Amanda....

I'm counting on our friends at Test Days this weekend to identify this young lady....

A dirty job, but someone has to do it, right?

(Now I promise to quit the "Tangent," and let everyone get back to teh "Real" reason for being there...the event itself)
