The entry list for this year's race is open since monday. Does anybody know whether I could spot TVR on there with two T440Rs if I had the chance to take a sneak now ? The deadline for entries is 20-feb-03.

They're certainly working on their Le Mans attempt but I wasn't sure if that was for 2003 or 2004.

Peter Wheeler told us at the motor show that they intended to try to get an entry this year, but it would depend how awkward the French make it. Fingers crossed !

As a non TVR owner it would be great to see them at Le Mans, considering how many TVR owners attend. We need more British sports cars participating. It was good to see all the Mog owners there last year; reminded me of the "glory" days when Marcos used to race.........ahh, memories.

Shok, you must be an old man if you remember Marcos being at LM . I remember some words from the ACO saying they would like a return of TVR just like the Mog people did last year and the Bentley Boys the year before. That was a sight, all those Bentleys around. Most astonishing was one open three liter speeding past me to reach the ferry in time, I hope he wasn't flashed. However, that would have been a nice picture for the office wall.

I saw in Autosport this week that someone is adv ertising for a driver in an LMP900 car!!!!!!!!!


Now, if you all donate some money we could have a "pistonheads entry", with a pit stop to change drivers every lap. We should get over 200 different drivers at that rate
