Regarding their entry to Le Man, it appears that it is needed to have a Brit Jag badged car to keep them happy. Too bad that that car will get more attention than the AM Gulf team.
I bet that car (the GT) will not even make 6 hrs at Sebring.....

Hey....Jags have traditionally been good racing cars! Group 44 got me into racing and Sebring...and I don't think the AM Gulf will suffer from lack of attention, it is the Gulf colors afterall and everyone still prefers a LM car!

In general, I think the Brits will root for both teams, maybe more for AM I suspect!

Jaguar got an entry because "Manufacturer" programs get precedent over random privateer teams, and technically, the RSR Jag is being entered as a manufacturer program. Plus a Jaguar entry at Le Mans will bring thousands of Brits to France for the race

Have you ever been to Le Mans, my guess would be no! Thousands of Brits is the biggest understatement if you ask me. Make that hundred thousends of Brits. Plus, they come every year. In fact, it is a britisch race, it is just held on the surrender monkey territory!

I couldn't agree with Knetter more. I have been to LeMans and I can vouch for the fact that the best and most campers are Brits, Dutch and Germans. The only French bastards were the Gestapos that come around daily to measure your camp and check tickets.
