Pics on the Infoscourse article (http://www.infoscourse.org/article.php?sid=1094&&thold=0) (too big to post here).

Looks nice...almost like I've seen it before. In green, perhaps...with a number 8 on the side...

"Nous sommes très excités par ce nouveau programme prototype" déclare Bill Riley. "Nous pensons que nous avons mis au point une LM P1 compétitive, sûre, fiable et rentable, et réalisée aux Etats-Unis. Le temps est venu pour un constructeur américain de construire une voiture Prototype et nous avons l'expérience et le savoir nécessaire pour le faire. Bien que notre attention soit tournée vers la version P1, une P2 est envisagée, si le besoin s'en fait sentir."

Pfft, somehow I doubt he said that. ;)

If I didn't know better, I'd say it is some sort of trend. :gomer:

Yeah, it looks like this might be the first Riley prototype that doesn't have the coefficient of drag of a shovel. ;)

Actually, there is a family resemblance... the windshield resembles that on the Mk XI and the rear wheels look like an updated Mk IIIC.

Riley has constructed the two most successful customer prototypes since the Porsche 962. Hard to argue with with the design he's got. :thumbup:

Can't wait to see it on track.

It can be be yours for only $675,000 less engine and electronics!
