[For the 100th running of the endurance classic, Peugeot will use a revamped Hybrid4 system that can now give 12 megajoules, and combined with a new twin-turbodiesel V8, the Evo 3 edition of the 908C is looking stronger than ever, or at least strong enough for Peugeot Sport to fight Matra, Ferrari, Mazda, Nissan and Porsche for the title.]

Yes! I managed to get a screen up just in time for French Friday! Woohoo! Tell me what you think of my build.

I finally got around to building a LEGO car in Tiny Turbo scale, thanks in large part to Flickr user //PROTOTYP, who dropped his 2015 Le Mans cars just as I was binge-watching both Truth in 24 films and races in Sebring and Le Mans from 2009 onwards.

This is part two in a now 16-part preview for a fictional 100th running of the endurance classic, where 48 (!!!!!!!!!) cars from 16 (!!!!!!!!!) manufacturers tackle the Circuit de La Sarthe and try to outlast each other for 24 hours.

The plan is to make all 48 cars, both individually and as a team, then pop Bluerender to get them rendered before this year’s Le Mans race. Vignettes, studio shots and on-site shots will come up by then. Oh, and did I mention that I will post instructions for all three come race day?
