Do we have any info on the FLM09/LMPc cars yet?
Can anybody post any info about the FLM cars that pertain to performance? What is the highest top speed so far? That kind of data.
Any little bit that could define the car's performance. Or better yet, do any of the old codgers have contacts with FLM09 teams? thanks dh |

As far as I know,they're powered by Chevy V8's,producing some 420 bhp.
Topspeeds didn't go beyond 170mph at Sebring. |

hmmm, old codger, Grandpa on the Waltons, maybe? Walter Brennan from the Real McCoys. You know, old, decrepit, broken down, battered lol! I believe it is a sign of respect. Probably synonymous with Old Coot, another gently respected term right? Somebody whose attended a few too many races without ear protection. Generally any people my age or older most likely fill the bill.
;> ps, 420 is now the 3rd different hp rating I have seen. |

http://www.formulalemans.com/en/about-flm/the-car/ states b430 hp, 630 Nm, and around 900 kg.
I guess the 420 hp always shows up because this is the power goal for LMP2 next year. The FLM/LMPC car gives an idea of what performance we can expect next year for LMP2 (same power and weight). Last edited by gwyllion; 25 Mar 2010 at 13:06. |

After Sebring I believe the Powers That Be are looking at how the tow hook is connected on these spec cars. Hint: currently NOT to the tub.
