    kinda miss being on track used to work for a smaller gt team but had to quit due to some issues with payment. A little sad about it because i always loved the racing and flying around europe to all the differet tracks. Feels good seeing some footage from inside the box.

    Love these videos. Seeing the technical as well as personnel elements. Looks like some serious money is spent (including the peanuts!!)😁

    Please let us know in part 2 what you/your team's plan is for next year with LMP2 leaving the WEC

    Well we don't compete full time in WEC we do European lemans and then just lemans as we got a entry for it. I believe next year with no lmp2 in wec but they still are having I think 15 lmp2 cars in lemans.

    Hello, is a race car mechanic the same as an automotive mechanic in terms of education and how they fix and work on vehicles? But, racing mechanics being more geared to super vehicles and high performance engines? Like, do they do the same work? Can a race car mechanic do the same work as an automotive mechanic (gas mechanic and diesel mechanic) and work on auto vehicles? Because I am going to attend an institute here in my city and they offer race car mechanic, which I am greatly interested in, and automotive mechanics, diesel mechanics and industrial welding. thanx!
