2015 GTP Endurance Series: General Discussion

[andrew1990]

I've been quite interested in seeing the LM55 make its way into a class if it's own, and I don't know anything about next year's schedule, but I'd love to see it run in LMP3 again as the main class for the Daytona 24, possibly with LMGTE Pro/Am. But that's just my opinion...

It is the main class for Daytona next year, with LM GTE Am and GT3 Am running alongside it: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/338058179/2015/2016 PROVISIONAL.pdf

Wouldn't this just work so well in an LMP3 class alongside the LM55?

Or just replace it with this new one.
Just for the fact that one can put that huge number on the hood alone 👍

Of course, maybe we should wait to try it out first

GTPlanet Endurance Series Hall of Fame

Congratulations to @DaBomb330, our second inductee into the GTP Endurance - Hall of Fame, joining @StigsTC.

View attachment 445274
@DaBomb330 now holds the all time record for;

- Greatest number of Races Victories.

He also shares the following record with @TNR_5zigen;

- 100% Race Podiums.


@DaBomb330 made his debut in the Series back in January at the 2015 GTPlanet Endurance Series 24 Hours of Daytona.

He has taken race victories on all 3 classes he has completed in so far this year;

LM P1 - Nürburgring & Le Mans
LM P2 - Silverstone
GT3 - Bathurst & VLN & Nürburgring 24

He is also in the running to achieve an Endurance Triple Crown if he and TNR NISMO can take victory in next month's Spa 24.

More often than not, the fastest driver on track, @DaBomb330 is a benchmark for many drivers in the Series, and a very worthy addition to our Hall of Fame.

You I know I'm all in favour of dabomb achieving the endurance triple crown in fact it looks impossible for TNR to not win as the only position for them to finish to not win is either 7th or not to score.

Just throwing this out there, as I'm sure the rest of the Reapers are going to be trying our hardest to send them down the finishing order let's not make it easy for them

It'd be cool to see if we could get the Bugatti vision gt, the Hyundai 2025 and the lm55 all in one class

Huyndai and Mazda are very similar (both visual and spec wise) and I always thought it'd be nice to see it in P3 class. The Bugatti on the other hand is more like an extreme GTE car

That's around 3 hours long!?
I enjoyed the portion that I watched but I can't force myself to watch it all.

 

[StigsTC]

I've been wanting to know so I asked

 

[polysmut]

The few races that I have been able to watch this year have shown the organisers', teams' & contributors' skill & dedication.
I just wanted to congratulate & thank everyone who has been involved & provide a point of view from a fan. I know there must be more fans out there. Everyone involved in this series is a part of something bigger than just racing with your mates. 👍

I wonder if they're going to join us or not.

"How is this DS3 user quicker than me?" *rage quit*

 

[sk8er913]

I think I heard a reference to us in the 6 hours of COTA WEC broadcast.

seriously? Only on




Edit:
It would be really cool if Spa 24h had a visit by a professional racing commentator.

Tom Brooks I believe is actually a professional commentator (by virtue of having been paid to commentate elsewhere), and either way his content has been stellar this season, particularly so when paired with Andrew Mather as those 2 have great chemistry.

But you already have one! One who falls asleep just before a green flag!

 

[StigsTC]

Nah you were just engaging power save mode to stay fresh for the final hour of racing.

I meant like one of the radio le mans guys that would be so cool!

Yes he is and a journalist too yes, mather and brooks equals RLM type content!!

But still, admit it... having RLM as a guest would give all of us nerdgasms.

It would be amazing but for me, for gtp. Mather and brooks together is just the top notch, just need a truswell to go with them and its radio gtp!!

True motorsports fandom is when 23 hours into the 24 hours of LM you say, "ehh porsche is going to anyway, zzzzz." Or 11h and 50m into a 12h race. "Well its practically over, zzzzzz." haha.
