Ryan Eversley is gonna announce his plans for next year today... he's been with Honda a long time and has left his old team Compass 360 after those moved to Audis in CTSSC for next year.
Might not be a coincidence... |

Looks like he's gonna drive the Acuras. Good for him, but I was hoping for something more.

That would be a massive waste of money for just one year. I don't see it happening, especially when they're launching the new car.

Talking about KPax, they announced running the 650s a few months ago in a Racer.com report (I think). I would not be surprised to see KPax do endurance racing in the near future, but not in 2015. But hey, I've been wrong before. |

It's been referenced on another thread, but not here; Flying Lizard and KPAX are joining forces to run the 650s in 2015.
http://www.lizardms.com/news/releases/2014/dec-18.html I'm a bit bummed we're not getting both KPAX McLarens and Lizard Audis, but the cars should definitely be front runners, so it should be awesome! On a side note, Seth Neiman is stepping away from the driver's seat: Quote:

PWC is going to have to hold their races at the Nordschleife if the numbers get much bigger. Wow. This is amazing. Now if I could just get native Chromecast support with their broadcast streams!

The race teams are doing that part. Its now up to the series organizers My biggest pet peeve is the standing starts. Those DO NOT WORK for GT cars. Leave that for the single seaters. I can't overstate how much I despise the standing starts in PWC. Cars get damaged unnecessarily too. It is just not fair. It cost the McLarens and Bentleys big time at some races too this year. It has to go away. I'll challenge anybody to a debate about this and you won't win the argument.. There is no benefit to standing starts for PWC whatsoever.

This has all the makings of a train wreck. Running before you can walk is never a good idea.

That being said, I do agree, that the risk is not worth the reward. I'm curious how the new format with split GT/GTS races, will work out. |

Moving starts will also prevent any technical changes to be made to the cars (getting rid of launch control) - which keeps the cars in the specs that they come and makes more economical sense anyway. |

I should have said it's different from a lot of other GT3 series.
Here's Jeff Courtney's take on some PWC things: http://nasportscar.com/checking-in-with-jeff-courtney/ |

LG Motorsport (Lou Gigliotti) to enter 3 Aston Martins - 2 GT4s in GTS and 1 GT3 car in GT.
http://sportscar365.com/world-challe...in-pwc-effort/ PWC could see more entries in their GT(A)-GT Cup races than IMSA - even at Daytona! |
