Thank someone (S.A.?) for Peugeot. Otherwise, there’d be little of interest in this LMP1 entry. Of course, the rumor was (and Murphy is big on rumors) that Peugeot is the reason there’s no Audi, the Frog firm having nixed an ACO plan to approve a “transitional R15.”
Six cars will race in three packs as (different than three six packs), the first of which will be comprised of two Peugeots. (more…)

Braselburg Happenings
No sooner than the cats left town than the mice were out. Actually not out, but “in” a meeting. With the RRIC underway in Phoenix on this past Tuesday – that’s where the Bear was – Murphy’s mole (the Moroccan Mole, some call him) reported a ‘big, big meeting’ at 1394 Broadway in Braselburg. The Bear doesn’t know if it was a sanctioned meeting or an incipient revolt, but he’s heard the subject matter was anything but trivial. (more…)

Duncan and Acura (or something else)
It appears that all the P2 Acuras except one of Duncan’s will campaign in Europe in 2010. If Duncan doesn’t run his, the Bear hasn’t heard that anyone else will, either.
