| BTW, sir KAuto is not the origins of thee. A certain grieving Jason Keller fan was desperate for information pertaining to his wheelman and decided it was the best way to construct his sentences. | |

| Lotus still 9.5 seconds off pace...Not bad for its 2nd race ever. Better than Aston Martin who is 28 seconds off LMP1 pace.
I think Oreca could very well win the race. Audi and Peugeot are gonna overpush themselves..with their new cars. Then again..The Oreca is last seasons Peugeot which failed...So maybe Pescarolo..Which would be a hugely popular win. | |

| Its in the running to be entered into Le Mans next year. There is a project called the "56th Garage" to put a 56th car with some kind of alternative technology in it to race against the normal 55 car field in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. There are 3 cars in the running that could be chosen as the 56th car, that will essentially run in a class of its own. It could either be the Delta Wing or... The Courage 0.12 All Electric car: or the GreenGT LMP-H2: | |

| Oh shit...The Delta Wing Project will be run by Highcroft..That essentially confirms its entry in Le Mans next year. In fact..It is confirmed now.
@highcroftracing Highcroft Racing @daveellis0808 Yes it has Dave. We are the selected car and the other two are reserves. We have it writing from the ACO. | |

| Man, the money they would raise selling tickets would surely break even on the cost of all the equipment lol
edit: only 320 tickets are being sold. Still, that's alot of money lol | |

| Also, I don't think it's Bowman Gray it'self selling the raffle tickets, just the guy who owns that particular modified and the organization he's apparently working with. | |

| 320 tickets at $100 is 32k, most older tour mod cars go for 25-30k. The pictures show it appears to be a 1995-2000 so he's actually not loosing that much doing it this way lol. | |
