Definately, this sounds like a good idea, but i'll have to finish my 787B quickly to enter it.

Re: Le Mans contest

Interested! I think it would be great rushing me a little to finish this Pedro Rodriguez' 917k (Le Mans Miniatures resin kit, with driver figure and opened right door...) and solve its chassis to body fitting problem...

Re: Le Mans contest

I may be interested, it depends on what type of time frame you're thinking of as well as what sort of rules.

Only cars that raced at LeMans itself or endurance racers in general?

Re: Le Mans contest

Ooh yeah I'd be in. Although only if plenty of time is given to get something acceptable built.

How about something like build the LM winner of the year you were born Just kidding, I think the wider the net, the more entries you'd get.

Re: Le Mans contest

As I said, depend of the time frame. I currently have a Porsche GT3 and Ferrari 360 Leman, but they won't hit the desk before end of the summer or even this fall

Re: Le Mans contest

I'm interested, if the deadline is the 2005 Le Mans Saturday, or something like that. (meaning I need a lot of time.)
And I propose both historically realistic and phantom racer sub-classes, besides common ones like box stock, modified etc...

I may have to finish my GT1 for this contest, sounds tempting. Speaking of flying lizard, I was at Lime Rock last monday for the ALMS race, great stuff!

Re: Le Mans contest

Could be interesting!

I've just ordered kit's of every car that started the race this year... I'll be building the whole of the grid (hopefully before next years race). Wish me luck, I think I'm gonna need it!
