But GG agrees with the potential for this: https://www.dailysportscar.com/2023/...r-le-mans.html

is I think what is being referred to. I still think there's a sniff of a third Toyota or Peugeot but let's see.

Yeah, that was meant
Let's hope for one or two more......
- 3rd Toyota or Pug
- 2 IMSA Porsche

a wet dream... comparing to the 5-6 LMP1s in recent years....

[Coach Ep]

This would be the year as next year sees more HY manufacturers and GT3 join the show.

It could even be as high as 20:

+2 Caddies
+2 Porsches (extra works, extra Proton)
+1 Glick
+1 ByKolles
+ 1 Isotta Fraschini (highly unlikely I know, I know...)

Me either.

Apparently one of the founders raced with a BMW 3.0 CSL in DTM Classic last year.

I thought the ByKolles would be repainted.....

And they'll actually be at the race too, was a bit worried the shirts would be new stuff for the memories collection

So what are the chances of the Isotta Fraschini being on the grid? I agree its a long shot for them just to get there, let alone be competitive against the might of the factory teams, but I'd love to see it regardless.

Looks like zero chance. Monza in July seems more likely.

I'm sure you did. I was answering someone else who's response made it seem like this year.
Looks to be plenty of top spec cars even without BMW, etc. I just wished BMW would have done it this year since I'll be there and won't be there next year.

Yes, they'll be there, we're all ticketed up and good to go. My lad couldn't wait though, he wears his all the time!

Yep, I'd love to have seen them too, but plan to be there next year as well, all things being equal....

[rx555]

Not sure my wallet could handle that

[Aysedasi]

Well, bearing in mind your location, I can certainly understand that....

Did you manage to get your accommodation etc. sorted?
