Speaking of PWC, found out today that the GT-R's will be swinging by my work next Monday for a meet and greet. Woot.

Just the nature of Street tracks, most other GT series don't have them on the Calander especially in Europe.

Dalziel was stripped of 20 points for not spraying champagne and walking off the podium.


Mike Hedlund @mike_hedlund · 1h 1 hour ago


I notice theres no penalties for crossing the pit lane blend line-Even tho it happened multiple times on stream. #interesting

I wonder if there will be any penalties/fines for the tow truck driver I almost hit on Sunday who drove on a hot track w/o any flags.

God PWC got it wrong. Beretta gets 3rd place points after taking out 1st and 2nd??

This makes IMSA 2014 look good

20 points for not spraying champagne, just k.

 

[cnd01]

Another PWC stat: In the last 150 minutes of racing, there have been less than 50 minutes run under green

 

[IforceV8]

Hedlund is on twitter now whining he got a penalty when he outbraked himself and hit Lux sending him offline and taking the spot.


and didnt get one for the ass drilling he gave the 458 at the fountain.


$1000 and 20pts seems light to me.

What was Bryan penalized for? Someone on facebook commented that we should crowd source the money to pay his fine.

I havent seen it but Leitzinger was slow out of turn 5 and Bryan who was behind got into him.

 

[CodeRedR51]

I saw a video last night where a Ferrari behind Bryan kind of got squished between him and the wall, was hoping that wasn't it as it didn't look like Bryan's fault at all. Sounds like it was something else.

 

[IforceV8]

Around 44 sec mark it is hard to see though.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Ah, that's the video I saw. I remember the Bentley spinning but didn't know who hit him.

In other news, Jordan Tresson will be in a Lexus RC-F GT3 this year.

Does anybody know the point at which the NSX GT3 was confirmed as cancelled or things looked uncertain for it?

 

[RACECAR]

GT3? I thought they were considering a GTE car.

 

[Bo]

GT3 was the only thing I heard last year. I'm just trying to piece something together.

I don't think that was ever really confirmed.

Dang! That Manthey Porsche from the previous page looks sweet!

Acura/Honda needs to release the damn car first before worrying about the racer. With the way the NSX's development went, I won't expect a GTE/GT3 car anytime soon.

Laurens Vanthoor believes Audi’s new R8 racer has the potential to conquer the Bathurst 12 Hour virtue of it’s improved straight-line speed.

The new R8 made its race debut in a VLN race last month and is likely to make appearance in Australia at next year’s Bathurst 12 Hour.

The R8 has scored two wins at the Mount Panorama classic but has struggled for pace on the long straights in recent years.

“It is quite different to the old R8 it is more towards DTM style of car, it is more of a racecar than the old R8 felt,” Vanthoor told Speedcafe.com.

PWC series GTS race right now is pretty good. http://www.world-challengetv.com/

Nice video on the Huracan GT3 (Post #2263)around the short Adria International Raceway. I never really liked the Gallardo, but I can easily say I love the Huracan. This is a great-looking car with great performance. Still... I'm not digging that green color on those Lambos.

I'm a Taurus and green is my favorite color. Best of both worlds. 👍
