Losing Allan? That would of killed off a lot of teams. What gives you the right to sit behind a computer screen and call them pussy's? These guys put their lives on the line for our entertainment. Sure they understand that, But there's very much a mentality in motorsport of "It won't happen to me". Respect their decision to pull out of the race, Whatever the reason. |

Im still allowed to call them wimps man. I think corvette and viper are wimps aswell for not going WEC. I just wish they had the balls to keep going with the NAEC, an aston in North America would be sick. |

Look sorry Canadian, I'm not in a good mood at the moment, And having been involved in motorsport (At club level), And been on the "other side" if you like, I find it really insulting when people abuse race teams. |

With three Factory cars? Both Am cars were customer cars, Being run in the same way AF Corse runs their customer Am cars under the AF Corse banner. |

At least the UK will get radiolemans this time. Shit for tusc when 'foreign' coverage is better than their own in house stuff. Corvette and SRT will never go WEC unless they start selling cars on a true global scale. They' actually need a decent car to do that though so... |

C7 and the new Viper are proper world class cars now. C6 and the old Viper? Well atleast the performance was there..... As far as calling SRT and Vette Racing for pussies for not being in the Euro show? They go where the money tells them, not where the competitive drive wants them to go. Just be glad they show up to Le Mans at all. |

I think the fact they show up to Le Mans is testament to it's all-encompassing superiority in the endurance racing world. |

American sports cars right now $ for $ are far superior to anything offered in Europe or Japan; theres a reason why GM has such a demand to export their cars to Europe now. Its been a long time coming to, with Corvette having dominated the last 10 years the others are finally catching up. |

Why have GM pulled the Chevrolet brand out of Europe then? Also Corvette's pricing outside of America is a joke (More expensive than its rivals from Audi, Porsche, And Aston Martin, Whilst having a build quality no where near the standard of its European rivals). The Viper isn't even available in Europe. Edited by Maynard S4, Mar 3 2014, 08:51:29 PM.
