If you are using hp restrictions as you point out, I'd say the Minolta is the best of them. For a PP limited race, I like the Audi R8 the most.

Anyway, the cars you mention are really fast too. If it has to be one of them, I'd go with the 905 for hp limited race and the GT One for PP limited.

Hey can either of you answer this question, can you save mid race (or at certain points, say every 4 hours or something like that?) in the Le Man's 24?

Whenever you drive into the pits.

First of all, I recommend you refer to Furi's Le Mans Bible, as it should help you decide.

Personally, I'll always choose a stock 787B, as it's easily my favorite race car, ever. But for your purposes, an Audi R8 '05 or the Peugeot 905, detuned to your specs, would probably be your best bet for an enjoyable race. You want a car that's both drivable and roughly even with the rest of the pack, or the race is just going to be 12 non-consecutive hours of hotlapping with 12 hours of crashing around le Sarthe in between.

905 most likely, because of the low weight limit.

Id go with the Speed 8 or R8 tbh

Hey guys! First of all, I appreciate your answers. I will run a real 24 hours race in the green hell. The cars that will be used is the LMP.
I won a 3 hour race in La Sarthe with the 905. I really like this car. Have a good combination between power and handling.
I will participate of a qualify for choose the car. I think that my position will be about 2 or 3. Regarding this I would like to now if the Speed 8 is the second best opition. Can I give prefference for a 905 and the Speed 8??
