Re: Lm on the dyno (Anyone seen this)
Not sure I follow. The rear wheel is off the car and the dyno is coupled to the axle. Also, the rear wheel would be at the top of the picture, relatively speaking. The front wheels are at the bottom of the picture and only the car's right front wheel is visible. So I am a bit confused...what am I missing?

What's different about the rear wheel?
Where is it visible in the picture?

Window banner seems to say F1 LM only..?

What are you talking about? They're using a Dynapack (http://www.dynapack.com/), which measures the horsepower at the hub and not the actual wheel. There's nothing really wrong with the picture that I can see. They just have the rear jacked up a bit to let the rotor reach the Dynapack.

Yup, that seems to be right! I can't spot anything weird at the moment either....

The LM Prototype - chassis XP1 LM - has always worn a sticker identifying it as such on the lower side skirts just ahead of the rear wheels. I have highlighted and circled it in this cropped version of the image:



Another clear sign that this is the prototype is that it has the four small holes along the top edge of the rear quarter windows. The other two LMs we have photos of - LM2 & LM3 - lack that feature.

I was poking around the Thor-Racing website this evening and found 6 more images of XP1 LM there.



Enjoy!!
