Sure hope they'd come stateside too (for a full season)!
That must be where the rumours at Petit were coming from. Should be Sebring at least as a prep for Le Mans. That is a sweet looking car, the best looking coupe IMO.

Is this really enough to get the Audi gang excited at Laguna? I think they'd have a better idea about what's going on then a few insiders. Plus toyota being in Detroit to talk to the ACO, and some ALMS guys going to Japan. Something is up. Isn't it fun to speculate? haha

I think it is a good possibility that we see them in the ALMS in 09 as the hybrid will be allowed to run here. Not sure that is the case with the LMS in 09, and I would suspect they would want some running in anger prior to Le Mans, and to get the car ready for when it will be fully scored.
