Lol I love it when they ask the other car companys what place they would like to finish in the LeMans.. They all say 3rd.. and asked why 3rd.. they say there is no beating Corvette... Corvette has won first and 2nd all those years, because they run 2 corvettes... No one comes close...

The Vettes are godlike at LeMans...but the Aston Martins put up a damn good fight
Corvette didn't win this year, but 5 years out of seven. danm good if you ask me. I know one of them was out the first hour with a driveline problem.
Yeah that's right the Aston Martin finally one this year. Last hour sucked cause of the downpoor. good race non the less.

Yeah look at Formula 1 with toyota and honda. I think toyota's team is based out of germany though not to sure.
But at least the japanese have a formula 1 team. They can't even keep an american driver.
There was something with the Aston's though...they weren't legal for the race (something with their dimension?). That was a dilemma back when they first came out to start racing. I don't follow it, so I don't know what's up with it...Can someone enlighten me?
Well I know they won this year first time since 1959. There nothing on being disqualified for this year or last years season.
If I find anything I'll post a link.
For a little history lesson here's Corvette's results for the 24 Hours of LeMans:
2007 #63 1st 2002 #63 1st
#64 DNF #64 2nd
2006 #63 7th 2001 #63 1st
#64 1st #64 2nd
2005 #63 2nd 2000 #63 4th
#64 1st #64 3rd
2004 #63 2nd
#64 1st
2003 #63 2nd
#64 3rd
These are all GTS standings, It's too early in the morning so didn't feel like digging up the overall stats.
italy wins everything formula 1 not japan
