Hi Phil,

Please correct me if I am wrong, but being SCALEXTRIC MODERN LMP (LM 1), it would only allow the Peugeot 908 LDAP cars and the new Aston Martin car to compete.
The new Audi R10 is not due for release until Xmas 2011 or later.
The Porsche RS spyder was a LMP2 class car.
The MG Lola is too early

is there any others which I have missed.... :?: :?: :?:
Cheers
Kev.

I don't suffer from senility.
I enjoy every minute.

I have gathered up a couple of pictures of the new track and have also roughed it out in STD. The track is four lane Carrera, dimensions are about 5M X 4M or maybe a little less?
