But, at the end of the day, the 908 program was incredible when you consider how fast the car was from day 1 and how they evolved a similar design over 5 years and were the fastest nearly everywhere they showed up despite the "latest and greatest" from the Audi camp. It's just a damn shame about 2008 and 2010 Le Mans. But at least they managed to squeeze in a win in 2009 in dominating fashion. At least Peugeot fans don't have to deal with the same level of frustration other Pescarolo fans and I still have to deal with over the 2005 race.

Exactly so.
As I said, I've never been in any real danger of being descibed as an Audi fan, but I think some of us need to be a little careful that we don't allow sheer anti-Audi (or anti-anyone else for that matter) bias to seriously skew our perceptions......
