Coupes are good... if only the minimum cockpit height was just a smidge lower...

Think your right trevor might look even better if they could be a little shorter. But there does need to be room for the drivers head.

Well I guess I will deposit this here, although it could go several places. Some testing at Snetterton. link

Enjoy!

I forgot how amazing that V12 sounds! Can't wait to hear it again. Anyone know if it's same V12 that is in the DBR9? The V8 in the Vantage (I'm assuming that wasn't a DBRS9) sounds different than I thought it would.

Yes it is the same V-12 as in the DBR9 as it runs under the new 'homologated engine' rules. And yes that was the Vantage GT-2 mule/proto that was running.

Yep, its the same V12 that's in the DBR9. Yep, that's the V8 Vantage that Drayson-Barwell will run in the ALMS for most of this year. I think both cars sound sublime!

Thanks. Anyone hear if we will we see either of these at Sebring? Mariantic is saying that Drayson Barwell will be bringing a DBRS9, the Vantage GT2 looks ready to me? It would be sweet if that Lola gets painted the same green as the DBR9's.

The B08/60 is scheduled to be at the Paul Ricard test the 2nd and 3rd of March so it is doubtful it will show at Sebring. Drayson-Barwell plan on runnig their DBRS9 at Sebring in the GTS-2 class as the Vantage GT-2 is not scheduled to be ready for the team by then, and it is also to be at the Paul Ricard test (HTTT).

I'd love to see the Lola in AMR Green, but I assume it'll depend on their sponsors and such.

Really good detail pics of the B08/60 at Mulsanne's Corner.
