but then what do I know...

I honestly don't know what point you're trying to make. Most of that post is entirely irrelevant and quite defensive. I'm well aware of who John Gaw and Phil Dryburgh are but at the current time of that post they've not contested British GT in over a year. Sure they used to be a factory presence in British GT but at the current time it's pretty much just Beechdean. Other teams are supported as customer racers but when you look around on a race weekend it's clear Beechdean are well supported.

Phil raced in RD1 and RD2 in British GT last year which was in April so not exactly over a year more like 9 months.

Lol. What difference does it make!

I'm interested in the whole event. Including all classes of cars in the race.

This might be alright.

Also, he will be racing the rest of the AGT Championship alongside Scott Taylor in an Erebus-prepped AMG-GT3

Try Assetto Corsa

👍
I'll have to wait for the console version.

The AMG GT3 is also in Driveclub. Not a sim, but still a really fun game and easily the best racing game I've played in a long time.

Does anyone know if CBS sports is airing a portion of the race or a highlight hour?

It'll probably be an hour or two highlight. Still better than IMSA/Fox coverage though.

Did we all forget about the Dubai race this weekend? Thankfully I have a 3-day weekend so I can stay up and watch it without a major sleep penalty.

I'm going to assume that with Nissan's recent motorsport cancellations, and the fact that I only see 1 GT-R on the entry list (which is not under factory support) that Nissan pulled out of this race for good, so no more GT Academy grads participating. But, should still be interesting to watch even if you're like me and have no idea who 99% of the drivers are.

Also worth mentioning the slow driver in car #167 is @Andil

 

[CodeRedR51]

Well there's the 1% of drivers I would know.

 

[Panoz]

There is also @Christhedude in the driving lineup for one of the 991 Cup cars, the #80.

Less cars than last year.

Need more GT4 cars.

Class I would be a nice series in itself. Get some more MARC customer cars in there. They're like V8 BTCC.

 

[Furinkazen]

Hope this is an isolated incident.

 

[TDZdave]

Whoa.... That's massive, hope the driver is alright,

 

[Furinkazen]

 

[iMikeTheKing]

It's time to race again!!

 

[TDZdave]

Definitely supporting the Corvette boys in the Dubai 24, they're hanging in there at the moment,

Its what 5 years old or more and they're within 10 seconds of Audi Club WRT's Laurens Vantoor.

C6R?

 

[Northstar]

C6R?

Yup.

They were fastest in one of the practice sessions so they do have a shot at winning.

 

[TDZdave]

C6R?

Yeah a C6,

Also looks like the Attempto Racing #999 entry has an earthing cable loose, see it flopping about on the passenger side of the windscreen in the onboards,

The new AMG GT GT3's seems to have some... ehm... teething problems.

Very hot situation, going to make some of the Merc' fans start to flame away.

Spoiler

Well okay so it was the SLS that caught on fire but still.

 

[SK8RBOI]

me and @Fallen_log are enjoying the Dubai 24. Cant believe the leader just crashed!

 

[CodeRedR51]

I forgot that they run this thing starting on a Friday in the US. Guess I will miss most of it.

 

[MatskiMonk]

Ah crap... forgot this would already have started... I'm not prepared for a 24hr race yet... I have no Martini, no snacks... only 3 monitors set up...

According to John Dagys, Dubai 24h officials have reserved the right to change BoP during the race.
