Rocky AGusta is the heir to Agusta Motorbikes and also owns a Helicopter company called "Agusta Bell" . They lisence build "Bell" helicopters in Italy and export then all over the place . Almo Coppelli used to be the team mate of Agusta when they raced a Corvette at LeMans in the mid 90's . I dont know anything about the other dude !!! They are both Italian , Cioci sounds Italian too .
Is this a joke about the line up in that car ? |

Is Intersport not running the B2K/40 at Monza? I assume they'll be running the B160... Or are they running the whole LMES season on top of the ALMS? :confused: |

I still can't beilve that RfH would NOT be on that list????
So...if those guesses would be correct, that would mean Intersport would not have spots... They indicated that they were entering the B160 and the B2K/40 at Monza...at least I know I have read that on many threads.... My Response: Come to America, RfH!!!!! I'd love to see you race the ALMS season, since the LMES can't even put you on the grid for Monza.... and any other team that has put together a race effort, only to be left holding the bag... We cheer just as loudly on this sid eof the pond, and follow the sport jsut as intensely... We'll welcome you at the docks with open arms.... |

LMES list has been released on DSC. dont know if im allowed to post it here.
some comments about it though: from my list above: add Kondo, Intersport, and take out factory zytek and Del Bello Reynard LMP2: alot of new teams Intersport is in it as well GTS: pretty much the same list as i told you guys, except that Wolfgang Kaufmann is entered in a Porsche GT2. (and theres an italian Viper team) - prodrive 550 (just the Larbre) GT: too much to talk about lol Last edited by 19dodge; 6 Apr 2004 at 22:40. |

Surprise - Lister is only for Monza.
Intersport is Monza only for both LMP categories. So the breakdown KA posted was wrong... |

maybe they will, but they just didnt enter for the full season. (i bet they will run the full season, but they are just not 100% sure.)
no RFH at all. what is up with that? Doesnt make any sense. No Taurus, no Goddard. these european based teams only have 5 races this year, and they didnt enter the first one (and Goddard didnt make it in at LM) very strong entry. i actually like this list as much as the 24hrs LM one (some teams are lower class, but not that many) there is much more of a variety in this entry than the LM one |

RFH and Taurus are definitely missing ; but Yves Courage says that he needs to focus on Le Mans... maybe the same reason for Jan Lammers and Taurus ? PQs and Monza are pretty close... |

So is RfH running the Kondo Dome ?
Courage doesnt really need to do the LMES cuz he has enough customers doing it for him . |

Did anyone notice that the Pescarolo was just 1 tenth behind the RFH Dome, and less than 8 tenths behind the Audi Goh ? Good work on the GV5 !

There'll be 21 prototypes (Epsilon C65 are in only for Nürbürgring) at the start at Monza (there was 16 in November)... what a field ! Almost equivalent to Le Mans (26) ! Bring back the RFH Domes and you'll have the future of sportscars in Europe !
The GT field is impressive too, with a possible Porsche 996 double turbo in GTS... wow ! Last edited by Fab; 7 Apr 2004 at 07:04. |

I'm as surprised as you at Lister being listed only for Monza- wonder if this has anything to do with their recent driver troubles- maybe they don't want to (or can't afford to?) commit to the full series until they've got drivers (and maybe a full budget) confirmed. No sign of the Taurus Lola either |

There's some comments by Henri on Ouest France
And a pic of the car scanned on "Le Maine Libre" by a member on MotorsLegend's forum... Henri says that, beeing pennyless, the team had to use 2003 tyres, and was very disapointed to see the Audis 3 seconds beyond the Pescarolo. Then they used 2004 tyres and are closing to 1.5 second. With the accurate set up and trim, Henri thinks that they should be in Audi's pace... Notice the air intakes in the rollbar... atmosphérical Judd ! Gorgeous in white, BTW...

if you watch the pescarolo picture on DSC, you can see that the first (lower one) intake is just behind the drivers helmet. For my understanding this is not a very smart solution...

Bravo, Henri....I'm glad someone has finally decided they would like to see if they can get to the next level by trying a power option that is different from everyone else... It's about time... |
