LMS Rnd 2: Valencia 4-6 May 2007 - Page 6

Problem is also a lot of traffic on very not large circuit...hard to get a clean run in that condition, but during qualifying, LMP1 and 2 won't run in the same time as LMGT1 and 2...

Erki · 5 May 2007, 10:00 (Ref:1907011)

Does the Radical World Cup race on a shortened variant of the circuit? Fastest is in 1:24s... http://www.lemans-series.com/results...ia/radfree.htm

Just looked at the LMS-site. again no videostream (just the lousy webcam) but we'll have a radio broadcast during the race. Better than nothing, I guess.

Qualifing session will start any moment now

**FIRE** · 5 May 2007, 11:25 (Ref:1907052)

Very close!

RfH and Courage are dissapointing.

**Dani Filth** · 5 May 2007, 11:33 (Ref:1907055)

turning up the knob .. 1:23 already from Pugs

**Dani Filth** · 5 May 2007, 11:38 (Ref:1907057)

nice one for the Zyteks . LMP1 ahead of LMP2 ..
3rd and 4th .. 1:24.5

chocmonster7 · 5 May 2007, 11:51 (Ref:1907064)

On the webcam a prototype was being towed back in but I couldn't see which number it was. Looked to be a mainly white paint job so could have been the Zytek.

Mirage M6 · 5 May 2007, 12:02 (Ref:1907070)

What happen with Alphand #72?

Fogelhund · 5 May 2007, 12:32 (Ref:1907087)

Well, the new Zytek appears to be quite quick, so we shall see how that goes in the race, the reliability..... Swiss Spirit is pretty quick for first time out, and probably could go faster with Deletraz behind the wheel. Very good field, and should be a good race.

The LMP2's are really quite quick here, challenging the P1's. I sure hope that a few of these faster LMP2's from the LMS, come to PLM to challenge the LMP2's here.

The Saleen's are mighty, and kind of surprising to see the Porsches 1-3 in GT2.

Qualifying

Those Zyteks are pretty quick.

SALEEN S7R · 5 May 2007, 13:05 (Ref:1907102)

Indeed a good result for both of the Zyteks! Will be very interesting to see what they can do tommorow, if the Arena car can hold onto the back of the Peugeot's it will have done well.

I love 04s · 5 May 2007, 14:34 (Ref:1907155)

Great qualifying session there in LMP, didnt catch GTs. Arena and Shimoda right on the pace despite new car and not driving for a year.......whats that old saying again? .......... "form is temporary but class is permanent...!

". Shimoda and Johansson both saying that the setup is not there yet either, they hope to refine it tomorrow morning......good news so far as keeping with the pugs is concerned.....although Pug's pace out of the corners is stunning, you can see them easily pulling away from every other LMP on the exits.

LMP2 Zytek with Vergers is a rocket too.....I hope he is going to start the race. Im not sure Henri will be so pleased about being beaten by an LMP2......

Race should be very exciting with all the traffic....expect lots of incidents!

dj4monie · 5 May 2007, 15:21 (Ref:1907170)

Nice to see the Saleen's on pole and ahead of the C6R.

Now that its May, I can't WAIT for Le Mans qualifying and the race in June, I encourage anybody that's been complaining about GT1 in America to find a way to record this event and watch it anytime you have a complaint about Corvette dominating.

This is going to be their toughest Le Mans to date.

I'm impatient of tomorrow race too !!!

I guess Jacques Villeneuve will have an interested eye to that race, like for Monza, from his Home in Québec...

That was the 29, T2M Dome as the 17 Pesca was also towed back after quali

Fogelhund · 5 May 2007, 19:10 (Ref:1907253)

Will there be live streaming? Anybody have the link?

Disappointing to hear jibes at Pesca. 4 Le Mans wins as a driver, add the LMS titles and this is a bloke that deserves some respect.

In it's various guises the Zytek / DBA, has been poor at the big one. "Lies, lies and damn statistics."

To paraphrase the Liverpool fans (I support the Toffees, so no bias here). "...you can't buy our history..."

Easy to shoot at those who've achieved. When you achieve, ain't it so much more difficult to keep on building. Turn it on it's head...

Best wishes.

peckadj · 5 May 2007, 20:51 (Ref:1907308)

shimoda qualifyed the #10, right?

Hey hey, whoa there boy.....its not a jibe, more of a friendly remark.....sheeesh!

Yes, Shimoda qualied the No.10, Johannson will start. Just been at the track....ACO have put an onboard camera on the LMP1 Zytek - should be some great shots at the start behind the Pugs!

chocmonster7 · 5 May 2007, 22:12 (Ref:1907350)

Thanks for the info I love 04s, it's much appreciated. I'd better find a tape to put in the video as the first few laps could be very interesting!

cptkablamo · 6 May 2007, 01:57 (Ref:1907412)

Anyone know why the T2M Dome was so far off the pace???

I read somewhere that the car arrived just on Wednesday, hence no time for testing whatsoever.
