And LMP1, and hybrid B160!

[Try Hard]

question is how is the person interested in running the hybrid b160? My bets go on either RML or intersport. I would probably go more towards RML, given that the IMSA have given the old rules a longer stay into '05.

b05/40 looks quite good though, be very interested to see it's debut at Sebring next year

Autosport this week reports that RML wants to run a Daytona Prototype campaign, so presumably running a B01/60 in the USA too would be unlikely.

there was an article on the ALMS site yesterday as well http://americanlemans.com/News/Article.aspx?NewsID=435

What you can't see on the ALMS site is a close up (or, rather, a crop) of the front-on picture.

It's interesting (although, I suppose, unsurprising) that the nose resembles more the B160 (B01/60?) than the B2K/40, which was how the artist's conception from way back showed it.

The RML MG is run in the LMES for a customer, along with the Saleens. The DP project is an expansion of the team. Lets not forget they are already heavily involved in Touring cars as well.
