2012 ADAC Zurich 24 Hours of Nurburgring 17th - 20th May

[Tired Tyres]

It's a marathon not a sprint, I've still got my colours pinned to the Manthey flag

No. It's a sprinting marathon!

Once again, every car in the race has a "Gran Turismo" banner on the front windscreen (and a "EPostBrief" from Deutsche Post on the rear windscreen) thanks to both Gran Turismo and Deutsche Post supporting the race - this is no confirmation that a car will be in GT5/DLC/GT6 etc.

Sadly.

This should be a heading in every post not just the OP!

Isn't that what all endurance races are these days though? Marathon sprints, people used to drive at a slower sensible pace for the entire race, fast enough to win, but slow enough to get to the end, but now they can just go flat out all the way without having to worry about breaking the car.

Also, in response to that BMW 1-Series picture, how did the organisers of the race let that through, weren't they expecting people to bring their kids to the race?

True, but it wasn't when I was a lad

"Gran Turismo"s, "Gran Turismo"s everywhere!

They must be a major sponsor of the entire race.

Very cool that you guys got that Radio Le Mans GTP shout-out. Unfortunately, it came just a few minutes after I stepped away from the feed. What did they say?

 

[Qronicle]

So is the stream just gonna show the same replays / static cam all the time? Or will we get some live action feeds again this night?

They mentioned we supported #123 because of Kaz & Gran Turismo.

The only thing I know they said was "Hello GTPlanet" - then something about rooting for the Nissan GT-R.

 

[patriotzero]

I posted lots of time, too. I asked 123's situation. They answered in RadioLeman! And I wrote lots of time GTPLANET listening to RLM also
