I wonder what it is. Not Australian Supercars. Could it be IMSA? I can't figure out what it is based on.

Update: Found out it is a GR3 set for 2026-2027. Rumour is, it is an LFR (LFA Successor). So I guess that Toyota/Lexus will have to come up with a road car for it. Watched the video, the exhaust sound is deep and guttural love it.

Sounds very similar to this:

To me the Garage56 sounds like a Corvette. The Lexus GT3 sounds like a Mercedes. But then, I love most exhaust sounds.

Well my incredible Son bought me a PS5 for Christmas. The one without the disk drive, does anyone know where to order one from? Every place I've looked up is out of stock. So until I get one, I'll be playing on the PS4. It's uncanny how fast everything loads up. And the "My First Gran Turismo's" scenery looks real now. Very cool

Richard had an idea and we'll be doing it in February.
F1 racing in the McLaren MP4/4 on past and present F1 tracks.
That's 11 races.
3 on Feb 6th, 13th and 20th and 2 races on Feb 27th.
Races will be about 30–40 minutes in length.
Let us know if you're interested.
