CTSC should be underway in 15 or so minutes!

Hopefully IMSA.tv will be available for me here in the US.

Let's go C360R and Freedom Autosport!
 
Sad to see only 7 cars in the GS class out there. Hopefully they figure out something soon, it's as good as dead.
 
Absolutely fantastic racing though!


I'm so happy with how this turned out. C360R still needs some work but trent Hindman is a monster behind the wheel. That's 2 for two this season and I doubt it'll be their last win.

Also insanely happy for the Mazda 1-2, Stevan and Chad drove a great race to take the win. It's crazy to think I know a national champion..
 
When I was watching the Pirelli World Challenge coverage from Barber Motorsports Park earlier today, I thought I saw an Alfa Romeo 4C in the pack. Turns out, it was a SIN R1 GT4. I found out Sin is a Bulgarian company. The Sin R1 is a nice, if a bit unusual car. World Challenge offers some fascinating machines. That's why I love watching the races in this series. These are some very unique racing machines.

Speaking of Alfa Romeo, it would be cool seeing them in the series. Considering how diverse World Challenge is, it may be likely some team will want to campaign Alfa Romeo in this series.


[UPDATE] I found out the Sin R1 is a Bulgarian car. I still think it's a fascinating machine. I made the edits to this post.

While I'm sad to see CTSCC suffer (I enjoy it much more), I've been happy to see PWC become more and more professional with each year. Still don't like the short races, but they've done away with inverting starting grids with the flip of a coin and other stupid nonsense.

Will say, I think some BOP might be needed as the "street" cars for the GT4 class are a bit odd. Other than being limited by some concrete walls on previous races the X-Bow and the Sin are leaps and bounds faster on most of the circuits. I have to say I'd have rather seen a proper "touring" rule applied to the class (something like four seats, or four doors, or a proper trunk or some production rule to limit the track-toy street cars from joining).

I love GT4 racing but I have a hard time with some of the track day specials being included with larger mass production cars. I hope they can level them out.
 
I know its all in the name of cost saving but, I'd love to see N2/Rocket Bunny type 86s racing in big fields like this. Purely for visuals.

The racing is awesome right now. Looks like fun.

Australia should host a GT4 round. That, or a GT4 championship to run with the AGT championship. I bet we'd see large grids for GT4.

There was a GT4 class in AusGT. There was a few Ginetta's and a Lotus. The Bathurst 12hr hasn't been able to attract them either. I don't know if there is a market for them down here as most of the people that could run them seem to prefer running old GT3 machinery as it can be used in more events.

As for hosting a round of the FIA championship, it'd be cool but the costs might be a bit high for the series.

I can't recall. Was that when Erebus ran the chrome SLS?

I understand it's mainly a European series. VASC or Tony Quinn, should extend an invite. Though, I can see where it is more expensive than the Australian Manufacturers Championship and not as established here as GT3.

The class was still open last year, but there were no participants.
In 2014 (Erebus won with the Green/Black SLS) they had 3 Ginetta's and the Exige that Tony Alford runs from time-to-time.
 
CA Sport/Skullcandy are back with Nissan 370Z's in PWC TC class at Road America and CRG in Conti ST have bought one of the old Nissan Altima's from CA Sport and covered it with a pink wrap.
