2025 Le Mans 24h Carset

by eky78 

The 2025 Edition of the famous endurance race may not have been one of the most entertaining to watch, but the elevated number of brands involved still makes it one of the most glamour Motorsport event of the year.

This carset has all the participants in the Hypercar class from this year´s 24 Hours of Le Mans, which consists of 21 cars from 8 different manufacturers. To get to GP2´s contingent of 26 cars, I added two Acuras from IMSA (could be the next manufacturer to join the series), two Lamborghini from the 2024 Edition (one car was still racing in IMSA in 2025) and one Vanwall from 2023 (they tried to rejoin the series at the start of the season). 

To accomodate the new Aston Martin Valkyrie, I decided to add another carshape only for that car. It was made by F.K. for its 1992 Le Mans carset. I used rremedio´s editor to put the two carshapes in one file. 

Teams and Drivers performances are based on the 24h race. The last three Teams have lower value in order to have them at the back of the field (they didn´t race).

Due to BoP, WEC Performances have been floating around during the Season, for this reason I decided to add two more performance datas: one for the first three rounds of the Season and one for the last four. 
Once you have opened this carset with GP2 Edit, if you want to use one of these values you need to go to File --> Performance --> Load and chose one of the txt files.
