Is it confirmed the car will actually run? I know they missed some tests or whatever and wasn't sure if they got everything solved. Will be great to see if so even if it probably doesn't have a chance.

Yes there appears there were 3 slow cars at Le Mans for test day, slower than Lmp2, but they have claimed fastest top speed and near best LMP1 times on intermediate tyres. It rained a lot and were busy making some required adjustments when it was drier! The official Nissan word seems to be that they were happy with the test day. Probably a new concept that needs more testing time! :?:

They will get plenty of camera time and you know at some point they will pass the other top cars on the straight. I heard they were hoping for a top 10 like Porsche did last year. I am hoping Studio27 will send on our way.
