Or somewhere in the middle.Okay now THAT is probably BS.Probably around the 1,000 mark like the Toyota. Or like @RacingManiac said, with a huge caveat.

That's the first thought that crossed my mind.
Also Toyota tweeted theyve completed their first test.

It does look amazing, and too bad Alonso wont be driving it as was planned this year.

I like how it looks 50% pretty and 50% purpose built racing machine. Also like what looks like an identifying light above the windshield.
Hopefully it has a livery to match its looks
Also, if it wins, it be the first 4 cylinder car to win Le Mans in how many years if ever?
My prediction for the record is the car will not only win Le Mans but it will dominate

Some cars in the 1920's had 4-cylinder engines and won. I think 3 or 4 years in a row?

It is legit, it has a watermark (that's barely visible) on the top right corner. It comes from Japanese magazine Autosport, and they might just be right with the design. At least that's what I can tell from the leaked pictures.

No surprise, Wayne Taylor turned down his teams 24hr invitation. http://sportscar365.com/lemans/lemans24/wayne-taylor-racing-calls-off-lm24-entry/

Awesome give the entry to a team that erm..... doesn't have a car that fits the regs
Well, it's the intention that counts, right?
Maybe they should give the entry to someone who can field a car on any category, I dunno...

Can't say I'm surprised either. They literally have nothing else but TUSC and that team hardly is big enough to have a LMP2 team as well to travel over with. With that in mind, perhaps they'll begin to consider that LMP2 car? It'll be a lot less for them to spend AND they'll be able to go to Le Mans Like Shank now can.
