Thanks, Liz!
So from what we have speculated in various parts of this thread, those cars not selected in the LMP1 and LMP2 classes were: LMP1 (6 teams): 1. Goddard Reynard 2. Goddard Reynard #2 3. AutoCon R&S 4. Creation Zytek 5. Dyson Lola MG 6. Durango or Dyson Lola MG #2 LMP2 (5 teams): 1. WR - the second car that is now a reserve 2. PiR Pilbeam 3. Bucknum Pilbeam 4. Rand Lola 5. Rand Lola 6. Debora Do those seem to fit for everyone???? Your thoughts..... |

I guess that Mr. Dyson's response to Liz was in reference to "Turning Down the Automatic Bid".....
Since the Saturn Courage apparently lost its sponsor and may not be able to race at all... and Yves Courage confirmed in an interview on one of the sites posted on the previous page (either Infosource or Ismr???...sorry if I meesed these up....) that he DID NOT enter a C60 at Le Mans due to his focus on the C65 program.... 19Dodge says Dyson didn't file an entry... another post said Team Jota didn't file one.... Who had the 6th LMP1????? I really doubt that Intersport filed one for the R&S like they did at Sebring....3 cars at LM would be a handful, and would detract from their "full-time" entires.... Any ideas???? |

Durango doesn't seem to have their act together at all....and supposedly the "Spinnaker Candesteam" Dallara has personnel from Durango as part of their program....
I doubt that they did.... |

Got me...
After all, if we would have done an "LM List Prediction" thread, how many of the lists would have had the "Spinnaker Clandesteam Dallara" on them???? They dropped in out of nowhere to be invited...even the journalists on this Forum had ZERO idea of who they even were.... Maybe there was another one out there in the woodpile... Because I can't think of a single car we have discussed for ALMS or LMES that we haven't covered here somehow.... |

I should have quoted Chris Dyson verbatim, to be fair to him. Here is what he said:
