It was a typical Mansell performance- drama and action all the way.....

Autosport are suggesting the intention might be an ALMS outing later this year- probably PLM.....
Talking about drama and action...

Maybe Vici would switch to #17 and 18 allowing the Mansell's to use #5.

So if we got the Chamberlain car over here for the last race or two, 4 out of the 5 existing Lola B06/10s would be here in the ALMS!

I guess it's kind of like having 6 of the 8 C6Rs in Europe.

Presumably there's the Lola-Audi (sans engine of course) knocking around somewhere - is it still in Deletraz's possession?

Andy- that's brilliant- those colours really look good on the Lola .

I don't suppose you've had a bit of inside info from anywhere, have you....?

That would account for it- excluding the new Coupe for Charouz, think there have been 5 LMP1 Lolas- Without getting into the question of whether they're B06/10 or B07/10, or specific chassis numbers I think the history is:

1x Chamberlain-Synergy (AER)- still with them
1x Dyson (AER)- sold to Intersport
1x Dyson (AER)- first sold to Velocity Motorsport who never raced it- (or is that the other chassis?) then Cytosport- it's now with Intersport anyway
1x Charouz (Judd)- now with Cytosport
1x Swiss Spirit (Audi)- presumably gathering dust in a workshop somewhere in Germany or Switzerland?

Assuming Cytosport appear with the ex-Charouz car, and this Chamberlain-Mansell deal happens, then the only one never to race in ALMS so far will be the Swiss Spirit chassis

All the others are LMP2:

RML 'MG' (Judd then AER)- they've used 2 chassis I think?
Binnie- (Zytek) still with the team, not raced this year
Chamberlain-Synergy (AER)- sold to ASM
Lista-Horag (Judd)- do they still have it?
Fernandez (Acura)- sold to Kruse-Schiller (Mazda)
BK Motorsport (Mazda)- again 2 chassis?

Mike Newton does still have 2 B05/40's which are #HU05 (the current car with AER engine in the back) and #HU03 (which had the Judd engine the back).

Actually, in theory, there are 2 more B06/10s, but no one seems to know anything about them.
