24 Heures Du Mans
The 75th 24 Hours of Le Mans will be running this weekend. Dominated by Audi the past few years, this year's race has a new Peugeot team ready to bring the overall winner title back to France.
Team Flying Lizard
As much as I admire F1, and feel that rally drivers are the most gifted, this is the race for me; the one race I look forward to every year no matter what. It's a race season wrapped up in one grueling 24 hour marathon.
This year I'll be keeping track a few teams, including the Flying Lizard crew (pictured above) running their gorgeous Troy Lee liveried 997 Porsches. They'll be up against their 12 Hours of Sebring nemesis, the Ferraris of team Risi Competizione.
The race for overall victory will most likely be between the diesel powered race cars of Audi and Peugeot. Audi has dominated the class the last several years, including a historic win for their diesel powered R10 last year. Peugeot would love to end Audi's winning streak with their all new diesel powered coupe.
And team Corvette-- with their awesome C6R race cars-- will be defending their title against Saleen and Aston Martin.
This should be fun.
