@zamzungas

The "golden era" was the Group C era of the 80's with the Porsche 956 and 962's, Jaguar XJR-9 and XJR-12, Sauber-Mercedes C9 (did 400km/h on the Mulsanne straight in 1989) and Nissan R90 (1100hp in qualifying). Heck even the Mazda 787R wankel racer was awesome.

Group C monsters of 1982-1992. Also the late 60's and early 70's with the insanely fast Porsche 917 (held the overall distance record on LeMans for 39 years from 1971 to 2010), Ford GT40 and Ferrari 512M.

Atleast 1995 and 2005 made him feel better.

I hope Toyota grabs up DOME's S102 for a project.

man, being leader for 304 laps and then losing the race for a mechanical failure... that sucks.
