Yes Barry, it's pretty much the same powerplant as the C5.  Also the Panoz Esperante has a V8 with sod all sound deadening.

However, the best sound of all was the Aston Martin................as they crossed the finishing line in first place GT1  ;D

Good to hear the new Panoz carries on the aural tradition :) :)
It makes a change from the 'whispering' LMP's, even the diesel's so quiet. >:(
Great photos from the CA crew, glad you had a good time, everyone left in Blightey has been green with envy reading the reports so far.
Jo's been talking about taking the kids to Disney, I wonder if I could disappear for a couple of days? 8) 8)

Hi Barry, better make that British Racing Green!  Yeah I'm American and will always cheer on the "Home Team" Vette's but the Aston's made one hell of a debut, very polished, organized, beautifully prepared and above all, BAD FAST!
That Menards C5 was right in the thick of the fight too.

Chris24 nice pic, unfortunately for the Corvette friends that is the view of the Aston that the Vette drivers had for most of the 12 hours.....backend only. Congrats to Aston and Prodrive.
