The mighty Group C race cars that once ruled the streets of Le Mans may be gone, but they have never been forgotten. The monstrous speed of these cars is more or less the reason 2 chicanes were added to the Mulsanne straight in 1990. Modern prototype cars are now more focused on fuel economy rather than speed, thus despite all the R&D spent on these modern vehicles they still cannot match the awesomeness of the Group C era. Let us go back in time 25 years ago to 1990… Cars: 1988 Jaguar XJR-9 960 hp 894 kg 686 PP 1989 Minolta Toyota 88C-V 951 hp 850 kg 700 PP 1989 Sauber Mercedes C9 973 hp 893 kg 679 PP 1989 Nissan R89C 953 hp 900 kg 690 PP 1991 Mazda 787B 831 hp 830 kg 683 PP 1992 Nissan R92CP 986 hp 900 kg 695 PP 1992 Peugeot 905B Evo 1 Bis LM 839 hp 750 kg 690 PP​
Track: Circuit de la Sarthe ’09 (no chicanes) Regulations: No power adders allowed Tires = Racing, any type Tire/fuel consumption = normal Draft = real Track edge = real Time progression = 8 times (24 hrs in 3 hrs time) track doesn't allow Weather = fixed Penalties = off Damage = ON Driver Aids allowed: ABS = 1 Qualifying will take place 1-2 days before race itself Race duration – 3 hours Race time will be on a Saturday or Sunday, with a time chosen that should work for European and American entrants. *If there is not enough initial interest I may open up sign-ups for a lower class (LMP1 or GT1) to encourage others intimidated by the 700PP cars. ENTRANTS 1) WolfpackS2k - Sauber C9 2) PsychoPhreak - Sauber C9 3) Mc Cauley 4) True-Blue-8 - Jaguar XJR-9 5) dlrws6 - 6) Ettick - Minolta Toyota 88C-V 7) Skilledracer - Mazda 787B 8) TRL_Andromeda - Nissan R92CP / Toyota 9) LITTLEBLACK032 - Nissan R92CP

If you're accepting a second Toyota, I'm interested in driving it.
