I agree with that. Guess that means they do post race weights w/o driver?

Yes, and to answer his question, yes, LMP cars are weighed without the driver.

She's on a German type Top Gear (DMotors) which is rather pedestrian.

Now that Acura is going LMP1 next year, who wants to bet they are using diesel there as well?

Finally, some competition in P1. Should make for much more exciting races.
