Met als kers op de taart een foto van alle MC 12's, als een soort tribute naar die wereldberoemde Porsche foto. Die bewuste Porsche-foto schijnt overigens een Photo-shop avant la lettre te zijn. Een van de amusante schandaaltjes uit onze sport

Voorlopig geen Lexus:

I’ll preface this by saying that there are always multiple sides to any story and this is from information I have gathered solely with speaking with people close to Team Lexus. Upon speaking to them, it seems that some at Toyota Racing Development (TRD) became very interested in this project after the initial announcements were made by Lexus and were interested in taking over the project. Serious changes had been going on at TRD with their new interest in NASCAR and their moving their entire operation to the NASCAR land of North Carolina. With that, early last spring, a couple TRD employees were left behind and put in a position to oversee the build of the new Lexus ALMS project, which was not part of Team Lexus’ original contract. Unfortunately, according to those same sources, internal “political” issues and delayed funding for the team, lead to the project falling behind schedule. However, TRD reports to Lexus lead them to believe that the team was the problem, the reason they were behind schedule and ultimately not capable of completing the project. After this continued for some time and with infighting between the team, TRD and Lexus, the project became so out of order that Chuck Goldsborough, team principal of Team Lexus, said he had enough and put an end to the project. Unfortunately, at this point, it doesn’t look like the project will be salvaged, at least under the banner of Team Lexus.

Ja met die foto dat je hier hebt gepost hebt heeft hij trekjes.
Maar amai als je op die site die je gaf de voor en achterkant foto's bekijkt!
Wat een heerlijke wagen, serieuse KOLOS vind ik hoor, hier een foto zo dat jullie begrijpen waarom ik er zo over spreek:

Misschien net iets te extreem voor WTCC??

Dit is een GT wagen in een sedan jasje, echt geen toerisme wagen. Trouwens een V6 met meer dan 470 pk is ook net iets anders dan een atmosferische 2 liter met minder dan 300 pk

Ik vind hem nogal "overbouwd", precies zo'n 1/18 tuner-schaalmodel, wielen blijken ook te klein volgens de wielkassen, achterkant valt dan weer hèèl goed mee...

Wel ongelovelijk erg dat deze wagen nooit in deze vorm zal racen. De wagen is klaar om met te rijden, maar als het project overgenomen wordt door PTG of TRD moet de wagen van scratch opnieuw ontwikkeld worden

is die achtervleugel niet iets te breed? die is breder dan de wagen zelf


en ook wel een moeilijke plaats om te tanken, lijkt me

Wat een beauty zeg, wat vreselijk jammer dat hij niet ingezet gaat worden.

Waarom is dit precies? Mogen ze de wagen niet zo gebruiken of zo?

Er zijn (contractuele) problemen tussen Team Lexus, Lexus en Toyota Racing Development.

Daarom laat Team Lexus niet toe om de wagen te gebruiken, veronderstel ik.

However, it does look that even if that were to be the case, its over for this season and the project will have to begin again from scratch for next year if Lexus and TRD want to pursue it. At this point, I’ve been told, its not likely that any of these cars or parts will be transferred from Team Lexus to PTG should they take over, so PTG will have to go at it from scratch. The best case scenario would have Lexus and Team Lexus patching things up and finding a way to get the built cars to the new team, though I’m not holding my breath at this point from the way things sound.
