Hello !
I am publishing again some info on the 24 hours of Le Mans. I first placed them in the "downloads" section about the Nascar Garage 56 car download by Islafe - big thanks to him for his work.
Thus, you can watch a gallery of photos of the
Garage 56 taken this week during free practice and also the pit stop competition. A competition won by the mechanics of
Garage 56 !

There is a way to follow the competition on the official website of the ACO (
Automobile Club de l'Ouest) which organizes the event and celebrates its centenary this year. This is the link to the official site in English language. On the ACO pages you can also watch presentation videos of this year's event.

Additional info. The famous English magazine
Autosport devotes a race preview of about 20 minutes to the 24 hours of this year.

What else to say at this point? Just an anecdote. During the final free practice session,
Garage 56 drivers Johnson, Button and Rockenfeller practiced driver changes. Their exercise consisted in getting out of the cockpit of the Chevrolet ZL1 through the window and entering it... through the same window! As is done in Nascar, of course. This did not fail to disconcert European observers and journalists.
Last thing: I hope you won't hold me too harsh for the poor quality of my English.
Enjoy !
