The Oreca Racing 'FLM' Formula Le Mans car is not classified as LMP1 or LMP2 in either the LMS or ALMS and therefore is not permitted to run in the OAPR. However, the Oreca 03 as raced in 2014 in LMP2 is allowed to run.

2.05 Minimum ground clearance during and after the race: 0.40 mm

2.06 Minimum front rim outer diameter: Ø21.00 mm.

2.07 Minimum front wheel starting diameter at the start of the race: Ø25.20 mm

2.08 Minimum front wheel width 6.00 mm

2.09 Minimum front rim width 6.00 mm

2.10 Minimum width of front tyre contact area 6.00 mm

2.11 Maximum front wheel camber angle: 3.00°

2.12 Minimum rear rim outer diameter: Ø21.00mm.

2.13 Minimum rear wheel starting diameter at the start of the race: Ø 26.50 mm.

2.14 Maximum rear wheel diameter at any time: Ø 27.70 mm.

2.15 Rear wheel width and contact area always 13.00 mm – minimal rounding of edges are allowed.

2.16 Maximum width of main chassis plate: 78mm

 

 

3. MOTOR, GEAR AND PINION

 

3.01 The race motor will be the NSR 25Evo long can. Unopened and always with the wrapped label intact.
