Dale White Takes You Inside Le Mans Prep at SPEEDTV.com
BANBURY, England, UK – Have you ever wondered what it takes to get a first-year team ready for the world’s greatest sports car racing event? Have you ever wanted to sit-in on a strategy meeting as a multi-time Le Mans-winning team manager puts the pieces in place to go to the famed 24 Hour? In his latest “Voices of SPEED”, two-time, LM GT2-class winning manager Dale White (Bozeman, MT, USA) does just that. You will be taken, step-by-step through the process of racing, testing and preparing the No. 87 Drayson Racing Aston Martin Vantage GT2 for the 24 Heures du Mans.
Found at http://auto-racing.speedtv.com/article/white-london-swings-like-a-pendulum-do//P1/, White explores in detail the intense preparation required to take a team and car to race 24 hours for the first time. From Sebring to Barcelona for the Le Mans Series opener; from the Aston Martin Racing shops in Banbury, United Kingdom to back-to-back weeks of testing at the Bugatti Circuit and a 24 hour test in Portugal, White takes you there this week.
This is White’s fifth instalment as a contributor to “Voices of SPEED”. He will write features for SPEEDTV.com throughout the year as Drayson Racing campaigns in the Le Mans Series, American Le Mans Series, Asian Le Mans Series and at the 24 Heures du Mans in June. Drivers Paul Drayson (London/Gloucestershire, UK) and Jonny Cocker (Guisborough, Yorks, UK) share the V8-powered British racer throughout the season joined in the North American endurance races by Rob Bell (St Helens, England, UK) and at Le Mans by Marino Franchitti (London/Edinburgh, UK).
