New Nissan GT-R LM
How about this for a different way going about winning Le Mans
http://www.nissan-motorsports.com/EN...015/15003.html
550BHP 3.0 V6 twin turbo petrol Engine, IN THE FRONT. FRONT ENGINED. Driving the front wheels.
700BHP Hybrid power unit driving the rear wheels.
So 4 works teams, and 4 different ideas. WEC is looking good

The WEC goes from strength to strength, because of the regs; 4 major manufacturers all with different solutions. None of the other FiA series can say that.
And not only that; I reckon all of the factory drivers are picked on talent, not bringing cash. I'm not sure F1 or WRC can say that.
And as for Nissan, is there a more proactive company in world Motorsport? Others should take note......
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

Don't get upset. I did say "leading" F1/WRC teams. Middle, back of the field? Ok, but it's not saying much. There's a reason why Sports/GT racing is an alternative motorsport path.

WEC is frankly, awesome.. F1 is its feeder series...
Have you been to Mulsannescorner.com where Mike Fuller (before it was released) wrote a great piece on the throughflow design of the chassis and after it was released wrote more about this intresting car. Just a shame it isn't racing before Le Mans..
