I have just seen a post on another forum from someone at RML who said:-

Quote:
We're just trying to figure out how to fit the outriggers onto to the car, and are waiting to hear back from the maritime authorities, who have promised accurate navigation charts for the new lake at Arnage in time for tomorrow's test.
Looks like its going to be a wet one, having said that I am off to Croft tomorrow for the BTCC (Darren Turner is on pole for race 1 in the Seat) and it looks like it is going to be wet there too....

Damn Peugeot\s side mirrors are huge!
They look like 2 Zeppelins!

But i really like this years Lmp\s, they are really nice!, except the R10 which still looks like the 06 car!, (which is really sad!)

From the looks of the long range on Metcheck the teams may need the wet weather trial for Saturday night Sunday morning of the race proper.

I hadn't seen this before, but Audi planning to use a mixture of Diesel and Biofuel for Le Mans?

Which also raises the question, is Corvette using E85 at Le Mans or have they reverted back?

Earlier in the Aston vs. Corvette thread, Horndawg stated that E85 was not legal for Le Mans. I had asked the same question.

the vitaphone aston looks simply fabulous, its just a shame the driver line up is so second rate compared to the usual vitaphone driver line ups, is the team behind that car vitaphone or strakka?

That's what I figured, that the ethanol was for IMSA only.

is E85 no longer allowed at lemans?

Nasamax ran their reynard based chassis on E85 blend ethanol in 2004 or have the rules on fuel changed since then?

The technical team behind the Vitaphone is a mix of Vitaphone and Strakka personnel managed by Michel Bartels, per Xandi Negrao on E-I.
