Only One TVR At Le Mans?!!!
Discussion
Hi Guys,
It would seam to be true we have 1 entry,
and second reserve for GT, but hey thats not to bad at our 1st attempt at leman's is it.
We have made a huge effort at geting to Lemans, and its paid of,and we will be going so again thats not bad,and we have the best supporters in the world,so I don't think we should be disappointed.
Bert.

Thanks for clarification Bert, very much appreciated.
Are you able to say if the team will carry any restrictions due to numbers sold?
If the intense support you will receive could be converted, you'd win the race out right.
Wishing you & the team every success - we'll be right there with you all week. Roll on June.

Cheers for the clarification Burt, still very disapointing though.
What historically are the chances of the reseve car getting a run , here's hoping.
I assume that there will be a dozen Porka's, not that its a bad car mind, however soon it will be the Porche GT championship , can't be good for the sport IMHO.

Yeah its a shame theres only one TVR better than none though, lets hope the other may sneak in.
Good to see the Moggie is in there too though.
Who do they work out who gets invited, whats with the LE Mans qualifyier in April if we know whos going anyway... i thought this was for extra Places???
A very confused BB
I know you have to be Invited too by the ACO, is this True.

Um 9 from 14, certainly know how to make it diverse for the crowds don't they. I wonder why other manufacturers think hard before investing money in GT racing then .

Still dissapointed, and they want to build our multi-billion pound aircraft carriers too

It seems one team completed every race in the ALMS for two years and did well
at Sebring and STILL got over looked.
No logic there, except perhaps...French!

Hmmmmmmmmmmm! Nationality?
They indeed should be able to run both cars. They are definately more qualified than e.g. Choro Q Racing Team (actually never heared of them) or Welter (Yes, that was the one which kicked out No 91 last year). To top it off there are five Courages in LMP2 and no Pilbeam although I know there were some applications. ACO

Well done Bert.
Under what circumstances will the reserves get in?
Im guessing if someone else;
1. fails to meet regualtions
2. team falls apart (lack of funds, resources)
3. team pulls out
Are there other reasons? What hope is there on getting the other car in?
Do the reserve cars still have to do the practice and qualifying sessions?
Well done Bert, Gareth and Team
An entry into Le Mans at your first attempt, all your hard work and preperations are paying off
One entry will surely allow you to be more focussed, without having to stretch resource.
Wish you all well and look forward to seeing the cars in action soon.
