MitchZ06 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
You're right there, the 12C GT3 in the hands of good teams and drivers (Hexis mainly) is a hard car to beat.



And yeah, that splitter is alot bigger!

it seems that they are testing the car with pirelli tyres. Not the best option for sure. The air take now are larger and square shaped

But the only option in BES/GTS, so makes sense to.

Entry list starting to gather a tiny bit of momentum, from the Endurance-Info and DSC reports so far I would gather the following confirmed/likely entries:

Boutsen Ginion Racing - LMP2 (1 car), LMPC (possibly 1 car)
Thiriet by TDS Racing - LMP2 (1 car), GTC (possibly 1 car)
Pro GT by Almeras - GTC (1 or 2 cars?)
JMB Racing - GTE (1 car? Pro or Am?)
RAM Racing - GTE (2 cars)
Morand Racing - LMP2 (1 car)
AF Racing International - LMP2 (1 car?)
Jota - LMP2 (1 car)
Sebastien Loeb Racing - LMP2 (1 car)
OREX Racing - LMP2 (1 car)

So far 10-15 cars confirmed or likely, I would suspect more are on their way, Oreca have arrive-and-drive packages for LMPC and that might put another 3-4 cars on the grid, Greaves Motorsport have 3 cars and may run one in the ELMS if drivers are found for it. So an optimistic entry list at this moment is around the 20-car mark.

Does anyone have anymore on OREX. It is also worth pointing out that Dean Stirling shared a car in the Speed Series with Mike Newton last year so there is a link here.

Looking pretty good to me is that list. Can't wait for Silverstone to be able to see both grids. One full race would be epic but this is a close second.

And DSC also reports that the car itself is still owned by Mike Newton.

A set of arrive-and-drive LMPC cars run by Oreca themselves, number of cars probably depends on how many people turn up with money. Also, the Almeras car will be in GTC, along with (for Silverstone at least) an Audi R8 LMS Ultra run by Dragonspeed Racing.

Murphy is still a possible . Looks like Warren Hughs is on the lookout , so I take it that 3 drivers is now too much .

I happen to know for sure who 1 of the drivers is for Murphy , but he didnt give me permission to post the news , yet .

It seems around 25 entries are expected in the ELMS his year. Guess we could consider that a success after last year´s painful showings.
