LMS LMP1 Team Charouz + Lavaggi and as always Short... LMP2 RML, they deserve this damn title even if i'b quite happy to see the T2M team or the Radical doing good... GT1 Team Modena Aston or PSi Corvette if they enters this season GT2 GPC Ferrari and Autorlando 997 FIA-GT GT1 Chevys and Lambos GT2 i don't care that much but i'd be happy to see Salo claiming the title on a Ferrari ALMS P1 all bar Audi ALMS P2 Fernandez & Intersport Lolas GT1 mmmm a yellow car maybe... GT2 Risi's Ferrari |

I was of the mind that it is a little early for myself to choose, as it is so early and so much has yet to be clarified!

Humm, good topic.
In the FIA - any Aston or British (read that English) teams. In the LMS - RML, Creation, Zytech, Rollcenter, Lister, LNT, you get the drift. Plus the Spyker Squadron. In the ALMS - Anyone willing to take it Audi and Vette. |

Hmm interesting thread. Here's my thoughts:
LMS: P1 - Lister and Rollcentre P2 - RML GT1 - all of them! GT2 - Team LNT FIA GT: GT1 - Anything Lambo and 'Vette GT2 - If RJN ever make a return, then probably them ALMS: P1 - Nobody P2 - Dyson GT1 - Is there really any choice!? GT2 - PTG Panoz |

The one I got from my best man (A Scot!) at the wedding...
Y Draig Goch on one side, St.George's Cross on the other. Seeing as I'm half Welsh, half English. 8^) |

As a great fan of The Underdog I still have a couple of issues to resolve in my mind for the forthcoming season, namely:
1) Dyson. Can we consider them as Underdogs now they are armed with a Porsche Spyder? Perhaps in the context of overall victory. (and maybe even within class against the Penkse/factory team). 2) Peugeot. Too big to gain my favour? Should I limit my support to the Pescarollo chassised/tubbed teams? 3) Aston. I should, but I don't (see Tenths passim). |

How about a Judd GV 5.5S2 then ? It would be great to see Courage at the top end . They really do deserve to be there . I reckon they have a nice little car there , but reliability is an issue , maybe with the Judd and a new gearbox . What do they use for a gearbox anyway ? |

courage were at the top end, especially in terms of speed they were more than a match for the pescarolo's, zytek and creation.
IMO the courage LC70 mugen's were the fastest car's towards the end of 2006, just reliability was the problem the gearbox seemed to be quite a problem, the electronics on the car were not to reliable either. well i hope the works courage LC70's run with mugen power next year, i have a soft spot for the LC70's glorious sounding V8 engine. |

The results speak for themselves . Just because a car is quick , does not mean it is at the top end . The top end means getting the results too . |
