Rob, this was posted on Infos Course last week: (translated from French) "Also let us note that Porsche n°81 will not be engaged any more by Racer' S Group but by the German team Fahrnbacher Racing. Two of the pilots are unchanged, Thorkild Thyrring and Lars Erik Nielsen, having actually preserved their wheel, but American Long Patrick disappeared from the crew."

Bad News I am affraid, I have just seen over on DSC that we have lost the K2 Race Engineering Car, it will not be out at the weekend, one of drivers has pulled out. That is really bad news, lets hope they are out at Silverstone.

Thinking back to DSC's Le Mans coverage, I believe the car is actually owned by Nielsen, but was run at Monza and LM by TRG- bearing in mind that TRG are going to be occupied with Grand-Am next weekend, presumably Nielsen has now moved the car to Fahrnbacher, either for this race only, or the rest of the season

Remember the TRG are also busy at Lime Rock this weekend with, Patrick Long driving one of there 911's. But I did read somewhere, Autosport I think, around the time of the Monza race that TRG where planning to expand into the LMES.

I believe it is Mansour Ojjeh's brother.
He is also racing in Formula Palmer Audi and doing much better then last year in the series.

with johansson also not at the ring,will Zytek be there at all?
had the impression Zytek was trying not to run too many laps in lemans practise,the accident damage an what followed up may not have helped their budget...

Is Kristensen driving for Goh? One entry list I read had merely Capello/Ara.

The loss of the Zytek has not come as great shock to be honest - what Brabs and Andy Wallace of at Lime Rock etc. I hope to see to them out at Silverstone. But it good news that the Lister is out again.

When I spoke to Tom & Sam Li (team owner) at the press conference after LM 24 Tom was down to drive the remaining LMES races but things change, I'll be at the Nurburgring from tomorrow so I'll ask!

Errr, Sam Li is the boss of Veloqx; Kristensen is supposed to be driving for Kazumichi Goh's team.

Fab, that is the info the LMES org provided em two days ago, but you are right!

BTW, just got a press release from Zytek too. It is on the website and DSC was (of course) right.

Don't know if this already was mentioned: Belgian G-Force team uses the former Jota car and will compete in the last 3 rounds of LMES.

It's good to see a Belgian prototype team on the European racetracks.

Did they buy the Jota Pilbeam, or are they leasing it??

I know that it was for sale as of about a month ago...

Please advise if you know...

Thanks!
