I'm TIVOing the entire race

what time does it start and what channel?

Rampant Jun 16, 2006 11:07 AM

Kinda' wish Ford would bring out the GT for that. Talk about reliving history.

Of course, they probably don't want to loose to the Corvettes, but still, it would be great to see.

I'd love to see the Astons win in GT-1, though an upset by the Acemco Saleen would be really cool. Also rooting for the Intersport car in P2. In P1, you might as well just give Audi the trophy now. In GT2, anything that's not a Porsche would be cool with me.

Rampant Jun 16, 2006 05:25 PM

I would love to see the AM's do well. It is going to be difficult to beat the Vete boys though.

I haven't performed my research but are the ORECA Saleens not ready for Le Mans? I seem to recall that they are not. I may perform said resarch before the race in the morning.

at that point mate you may as well wait for the race and see if they are oin the lineup :)

Well it's 5:52am . . . I've got a few hours before the race starts to check. :jester:

And I just checked/confirmed that in agreement with Mr. Saleen the ORECA Saleens will not be running in Le Mans. Glad to see I still have somewhat of a good memory since that was determined back in March! :jester:

Evil_Capri Jun 17, 2006 07:32 AM

Here is the starting lineup . .

just started watching it now..goot to see AM getting top pole in their class.
Those Audi deisels are crazy..really quiet!

Scothew Jun 17, 2006 09:24 AM

I'm trying to watch it some here at work this morning. God those AM's are beautiful, i'd love to see them get a win. Would be a good thing for the AM company and Ford as well.

What Audi diesels are you talking abotu Doug? The R10's?

burningman Jun 17, 2006 10:05 AM

yeah they are insanely quiet

burningman Jun 17, 2006 10:16 AM

Ahh Spyker is running a couple cars too..very cool!! Go duchty!

Lalo Jun 17, 2006 10:22 AM

Go AM!!!

burningman Jun 17, 2006 10:25 AM

Those AM's are the sexiest cars out there for sure!!

Lalo Jun 17, 2006 10:29 AM

Hands down, they are the sexiest by far.

the Aston Martin website has a new "Build your Aston" section... a man can dream
