Le Mans 2010 Entries - Invites

When Corvette Racing moved to GT2, it was good for US racing - Going to the class where the competition was. But, the LM24 entry question hung in the background - With the qualifying rules to get in, the non-demise of GT1, and no 2009 GT2 championship or Petit LM win to depend upon.

Ah, but thanks to the �invite� nature of the Le Mans entry system, all is good. Better than ever actually. As Corvettes will race for 2 class championships in 2010.

In GT1, 3 Corvette C6R's battle 2 Ford GT�s and a Saleen, Aston Martin, and Lambo [Again, that Japan car? DNF, now!]

* Luc Alphand Aventures - Chevrolet Corvette C6.R
* Luc Alphand Aventures - Chevrolet Corvette C6.R
* Peka Racing NV - Chevrolet Corvette C6.R [you know these guys]
* Matech Competition - Ford GT
* Marc VDS Racing - Ford GT
* JLOC - Lamborghini Murcielago GT1
* Larbre Competition - Saleen S7R
* Young Driver AMR - Aston Martin DBR9

In GT2, the factory CR C6R's, are fighting 2 BMW factory-supported M3�s, the Modena-blessed Risi F430�s, and the factory-'drivered' AF Corse [Ferrari F1 test guy, Fisichella is in], with of course the Lizards [and IMSA team car] lurking. 2 BMW, 4 Porsche, 6 Ferrari, a Jag [more demo laps, Paul?], AM, and Spyker [or Saab!] stand in the way of the 1st Corvette GT2 Le Mans victory.

* Corvette Racing - Chevrolet Corvette C6.R

So, the question IS - Which C6R, GT1 or the new GT2, will be faster @ La Sarthe?
