I hope Super GT just see that ITR are not going to push for class 1 and they drop the dtm ruleset. It might not happen but I think it's more likely than class 1 at the moment.

I also hope the same thing. Previous generation cars looked much better and Honda might finally be able to be competitive.

I want class one but not at expense of damaging SGT. ITR can take a hike if they're going to do that and the Germans don't care about what happens to Japans biggest domestic championship, they just want their own way. And if that happens they can stay on their respective sides of the fence. Super GT is too good for it to be lost to that |

Masataka Bandoh (GTA) interview about Gerhard Berger's comment.
Q. Is the Berger's comment negative against regulation unification? A. No, it is rather positive. Personally, I hope that the world championships will be realized in the future, and SGT and DTM could be a regional championship. It would be ideal if a regional champion would challenge to world championship as a representative. However, first of all, immediate objective is hosting an inter race, so we are preparing for the unification of the vehicle rules for that purpose. If DTM joins the world championships, it would have been difficult to hold an inter race. That's because there is no match in class between the world championship (DTM) and the regional championship (SGT). It is clear that the ITR wants to maintain DTM, and this intention is confirmed directly from Mr. Berger. First of all, I would like the DTM to clear the task of changing to the 2 liter DI turbo, and adjust other parts and we prepare for the realization of the inter race from 2019. 3 DTM manufacturers have agreed to change the engine from V8 to 2-liter DI turbo in principle. Detailed coordination and negotiation are continued with the steering committee, which includes technical managers from SGT manufacturers and DTM manufacturers. http://www.as-web.jp/supergt/139087?all Last edited by Japanese Samurai; 7 Jul 2017 at 08:15. |

Sven Mueller*
And Global Racing Management, Couto's management company, have said that he'll need three months to recover - ruling him out of Sugo and Fuji. At any rate, hoping for the best - was a really fast, really ugly crash for Couto. |

Any news about Andre Couto's substitute for Sugo race at this weekend? As we know, Sven Mueller will still race on ADAC GT Masters.

Through the date of the auction as shown in the website. I think either they used the new chassis of Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 or they withdraw SUPER GT by next year, because SUPER GT does not accept the race car model which is 2 years old or more.

和田QのSLSが売りに出ているそうだが鈴鹿から新車を用意するのかそれとも参戦休止なのか謎( ゚Д゚)
R'Qs is selling its SLS GT3. Do they introduce a new chassis or withdraw? ご指摘がありました。どうやら和田QのSLSは開幕のみ従来車で2戦からはSLSの別個体(昨年のアルナージュ名義エントリー車?)になるようです。 Apparently, R'Qs had used this selling SLS GT3 only in 1st race this year. And it seems that they had already introduced another SLS chassis from 2nd race (last year's Arnage's chassis?). |

GTE is good
It appears on the facebook timeline of BMW Motorsport "2017 WEC is excited! We are preparing for next year This is M8 GTE" In the back, there is also a logo of the LM24. F13/M6 will be discontinued next year. But we have to fight by this old M6GT3 next year and year after next. I am envious of new M8GTE. BMW Motorsport M8GTE A class above of our GT3, and a class below of the DTM. Because it is still unseen M8 based so super cool! Germany, no, it is the most famous car magazine in Europe. New exclusive shots are posted on the Auto motor und sport magazine. It is far more a racing car than the previous announcement, so this car can race soon. What is most interesting is the engine. If it was V12 Turbo, it would be cool! ! ! But is it too front heavy?! I want to know the details soon! And, I want to listen to the exhaust note. |

Pipo Derani is visiting SUGO to investigate Super GT.
He was invited by Michael Carcamo (Nissan). He seeks for factory driver contract. He doesn't have an interest in GT300. http://www.as-web.jp/supergt/144283?all Last edited by Japanese Samurai; 21 Jul 2017 at 11:54. |
